Some of the boss fights in Square Enix’s upcoming action role-playing game, Final Fantasy XVI, are reportedly causing PS5 consoles to overheat.

People with early access to copies of Final Fantasy XVI as well as those who have played the recently released demo have been reporting that the game tends to overheat their PS5 console during certain boss fights.

Twitter user TheSphereHunter stated that she has been playing a certain PS5 game that hasn’t yet been released, where a boss fight made her console overheat to the point where it just turned off completely at the end of the fight. Meanwhile, some members of gaming enthusiast forum, Reset Era, have also been having overheating issues with the game’s recently released playable demo on PS5. One member mentioned that he was fighting the Morbol boss when his PS5 showed a message stating that the console needed to be turned off in order to cool down.

Regardless of whether this is a common problem with those playing the game or its demo, it’s always a good idea to keep your console’s vents, fan and heat sink clean from potential dust that may accumulate over time.

Time for ps5 Pro, make it an ultra expensive $1000 machine

Next gen barely started. Devs are to blame here. They would ask for a PS5 pro to run Tetris and complain it's not powerful enough.

For a game that the developers were gloating has been gold months before release it sure does have a lot of image quality and performance issues. This isn't even a problem with hardware, demon souls, ratchet, and HFW look much better than this game while all offering better performance. It clearly is due to whatever archaic engine they are using where they still thought FSR 1 was a good idea.

Yeah, i wish they would have used any other image upscaler. FSR1 is awful on fine details and the pixel crawling is distracting.

Is this the latest FUD they are going with? I've never seen so much desperation to tear down an exclusive.

 

[Nhomnhom]

Doubt, sounds like the usual FUD. Mine doesn't even make any sound.

 

[KnittedKnight]

Doubt with the title in question.... that engine isn't pushing the system.

 

[Johnic]

Ahh. MS' court date isn't going well. Time for a new wave of FUD.

Time for Austin evans to point a thermometer at the exaust to confirm this.

 

[Gediminas]

Can we lock this up? we shouldn't entertain this nonsense. It is straight up FUD

It is liquid metal FUD level again.

 

[SLB1904]

3 people that probably never clean their ps5 so must be true.

 

[Killer_Sakoman]

100% FUD

 

[Satoru]

This shit is like clockwork.

I fail to see widespread evidence of this, and it all seems to come from a tweet and a few comments in Resetera being blown out of proportion.

Closing thread until sufficient evidence comes.
