Ps5 shuts off when playing ps5 games

As the title says. Idk why it happens but it happens haha.

Do you have any reference? Sounds odd, could be a manufacturing issue, could be your settings, could be a motherboard hardware issue, could be your TV settings, could be  disc corruption.. PS5 doesn't instantly "shuts off", it typically goes into rest mode as a default option.

Could be overheating, maybe time to take off the plates and give it a good dusting/clean if you have owned it for awhile.

Mine did the same thing for a while. I ended up taking off the sides and vacuum it. I also plugged the power straight into the wall so it didn't share with anything else. Haven't had any problems since.

This was exactly what stopped it for me.

clean it..make sure its well ventilated.

 

Thats basically it. Systems do crash but most issues come down to people not properly taking care of their console.

If your warranty hasn't expired, you should send it back to Sony so they can take a look at it.

happened to me also, it's because of small holes near the psu get clogged with shit and prevent air flow. there are multiple ways to clean but i use a 500w electric air duster and give the vents at the back a few quick blasts.
