PS5 Overheating Alert While Playing FC26

I am facing an issue while playing FC26 on my PS5. During gameplay, a warning message appears stating: “Your PS5 is too hot. Please turn it off and wait for it to cool down.” Because of this alert, the game stops after 20 minutes to 30 minutes and I am unable to continue playing.

This issue occurs specifically while playing FC26, and not with other games and my ps5 is 4 month old only and it's totally clean. I would like you to please check this issue and provide a solution or guidance to resolve it.

    Side note examples, diablo 4 I can run beyond an 8 hour grind, or mortal kombat 1 for several hours online. Just pointing this out

  • Ok I've been having this issue for about a month now, cleaned the vents, set to performance mode, all that. This is literally the only game that does this to me. I can play hours upon hours straight of ALL my other games for beyond several hours and no problems whatsoever, I play fc26 for maybe an hour and this overheating thing starts happening. Something isn't right here

    Hello Barry,

    I've given the console a deep clean, but the problem is still happening. As I mentioned before, every other game runs perfectly fine without any issues. The overheating only happens during the menu screen; during gameplay, it runs smoothly and stays at a normal temperature.

    If your console is relatively new or you are 100% sure it is clean, then you may need to contact PlayStation for hardware support.

    Thank you. EA_Barry. 

  • My PS5 is overheating since the last update. Is anyone else having the same experience with their PS5? Already opened it and the fan looked clean. Its also just overheats in the menus of EA FC; not in game while playing a match or in any other game.
