Sk1pper_Oz Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 How can a game make my PS5 turn off? Was playing Hades with no problem, and I decided to give Fifa a go. Downloaded it. Launched it. Mid way thru the intro I thought was time to skip and quickly go to the real game... and bum. Playstation turned off. When turned on It started "rebuilding database", upon reaching 100%, instead of turning back on it was turning off, and then on again and rebuild database, over and over again. Only way to turn the console back on was from safe mode, update the system software (witch btw was already updated before) and after that the console starts with no problem. Once in the menu I can run disc games, every other digital game, but if I try to play Fifa the console shuts down again. The very few times just the game crashes it gives the following error: CE-108255-1. But is the only game that has this problem. It truly doesn't make any sense to me. I tried to reset the console, reinstall the system software, delete cache and of course rebuilding database ? but nothing. In 20 years of gaming I've never seen a game shutting down a console for something different then overheating. Should I send it to assistance or it's a matter then can be solved with a game update? I'm very ignorant on a technical level, but I would love to understand what the hell is going on. Thank you ahead for your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Null_Spectre Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Sounds like an issue Fifa is causing given it seems to be solely occurring when you play it and gives you that error code related to software crashes. Check EA forums related to Fifa and see if other players on PS5 are having the same issue you are. Is it the newest release? Could need another round of patches as is the norm with new games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astray404 Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Have you contact your local PS Support Center? It seems like a wide-ranged issue: Error Code CE-108255-1 - Potential fix MEGA LIST : PS5 (reddit.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't contact Sony yet as is Saturday and they don't work. But what I'm afraid of is sending the playstation to fix for weeks for something that, as @Null_Spectre mentioned may be due to Fifa and can be patched by them. I've tried pretty much everything in the reddit post you shared @Astray404, nothing seem to make the game work. Something I found on a another reddit thread was about the game language causing this error, and it may be my case as I have the game in Italian, but voices in English. Tried to switch back to everything in English but that haven't solved the problem unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anankha Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 As it’s only happening with fifa then it’s EA’s problem imo. Other users have been complaining of the same with that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
