Hi there. This means your console is overheating. If the vents are free from debris and the console is in a well-ventilated space, it would be good to open it up and clean it out. You should be able to find some instructions online for that.

Many people are reporting that when playing FC26 on the PS5 Slim, the fan runs very loud and the console gets hot, I’ve read in community groups that several people using the PS5 Slim are experiencing the same issue as well.
If it was only happening to me, I might think my console had a problem or the fan was dirty. But it’s not just me—many other PS5 Slim users are experiencing the same issue.
EA should be able to optimize it for the PS5 Slim.

Seriously? Seriously, the PS5 is overheating? Don't tell me? That's obvious! The problem is precisely that, and this problem is occurring with countless players, if not thousands, worldwide... there has to be an explanation and an immediate solution for a game as expensive as this to simply overheat, shut down the console, and become completely unplayable while other games run normally. Nobody's kidding here.

There are millions of PS5s out there. It wouldn't be surprising to find out some are very dirty after years of use. The best I can advise is to make sure yours is as clean as can be. This may mean opening it up and cleaning out any internal debris.
