UFC 6 PS5 - heats up PS5 and shutsdown

I load up the game and start playing and within a few minutes my PS5 just turns off completly.  I have to unplug it from the outlet and plug back in to get it PS5 back on.  This happens all day today...

    If your console is overheating while playing, it will protect itself by shutting down. You can know it is definitely overheating if you have to unplug the power cable and reconnect it before restarting the PS5. I personally had this issue in the past and got a can of compressed air (held vertically so no liquid comes out) and blasted the dust/lint away from the fan and as far into the heatsinks as I could. If you are not comfortable with this, you could look into getting the console professionally cleaned.

    Thank you. EA_Barry.

I am experiencing the exact same issue.

When I am on the UFC 6 main menu or in the Online Career mode lobby, my PS5 Slim fan spains at an incredibly high speed with massive noise. Shortly after, an official system warning pops up stating that the console's temperature is too high.

The ridiculous part is that once a match starts and i am actually playing the game, the fan noise slightly decreases and stabilizes compared to when i am just sitting in the lobby.

My PS5 Slim is perfectly clean and free of dust. Furthermore, when I play other graphically demanding, high-end games, my console remains completely stable and the fan noise barely audible. This is clearly a optimization issue with the UFC 6 game itself.

EA needs to fix this problem as soon as possible. I am going to stop playing UFC 6 until a proper patch or action is taken regarding this issue. Otherwise, I genuinely fell like this game is going to break my console.

    Dude, I have exactly the same situation. It’s really absurd that when you’re just sitting in the Online Career main menu, the console fan spins up to an insane speed, but once the actual fight starts, it becomes quiet.
