Need for speed unbound shutting my PS5 off.

For some reason every time I play Unbound it shuts my PS5 offf randomly and none of my progress saves at all. It’s only NFS that does it. All my other games work fine. Even when I play NFS Heat it plays just as fine. Need help on the problem because I cleaned my PS5 thoroughly of dust and still it shuts off. Can’t get a refund for the game at all but don’t even want one because I enjoy the game. First NFS I played since Most wanted and I missed how good NFS was. Please send any way to help me play this game. Thank you

  • I also had this twice on my PS5, One time i lost the Online and Offline save data from about 8 hours. All my Money and Rep Online was gone also in Story mode.

    Since the last update i didnt notice any crashes but the game is rather boring after a short time so i am not gaming it so much in the last time..

    Also the physics are completely f‘d up sometimes you just jump in the air and dont know whats going on

    This was the badest Game Experience ever, i would rather see Ghost Game to fix this than Criterion.

    This may be down to booting PS5 from rest mode.   It’s been an ongoing issue with PS5 since its launch.  Sony say they have fixed it.  Although many of the issues have been fixed some still remain.  Which only effect some games.  Such as randomly crashing and/or  shutting down  console.

    It’s recommended by many sources to turn off rest mode altogether.  Along with device link.  By going into settings and changing setting to never put in rest mode. Which I have done.  And can count on one hand the times my PS5 has crashed despite thousands of hours playtime.  

    Hope this helps
