The Playstation 5 apparently can't handle a popular shooter.
The game is said to irrevocably crash the PS5.
Gaming fans are appalled.
Some players have reported massive problems playing Call of Duty on
PS5
.
Even complete system failures of the
Playstation 5
should have occurred due to the shooter.
Cause of the problems with the
PS5
unclear: what can consumers do?
Offenbach - The hype surrounding the
Playstation 5
, the next-gen game console from
Sony,
is still unbroken.
The onslaught of fans is huge.
Of course, it is all the more annoying when a game
destroys
the new
PS5
.
As apparently with some users who complain about this problem on social media on Reddit and Twitter.
Strictly speaking, it is the 17th and thus the newest part of the first-person shooter series
Call of Duty (CoD),
which is called "
Black Ops
Cold War"
.
Apparently,
CoD
Cold War has
caused
massive problems on the
Playstation 5
since its release last November
.
Some users even complain that the
PS5's
hardware was
then completely destroyed.

Flickering on the PS5: Call of Duty causes fatal errors on the Playstation 5
After errors on the DualSense controller of the
PS5 were already
publicized, the cases of problems in connection with the new Call of Duty are increasing.
The error that
occurs in
CoD's
game mode
is said to
lead
to serious loading problems
on the
PS5
.
Users also report defects in the graphics, which are noticeable in the form of flickering and pixelation on the game screen.
It should also happen that the
Playstation 5
switches
itself
off repeatedly.
The console is almost unusable after the error has occurred, users report on Twitter.
What causes
the defects in the
PS5
has not yet been clarified.
It is also unclear whether they can be traced back to a hardware fault in the
Playstation 5
or whether the
CoD
software is
causing the problems.
Why does Call of Duty have Playstation 5 errors?
There is speculation as to whether the game
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War
might
push
the
Playstation 5
to its limits so that the
PS5
overheats and in this context damages the graphics unit of the console.
In this case, users are advised to ensure that the console has sufficient space on all sides.
However, given the size of the Playstation 5, this is definitely a challenge.
Call of Duty destroys the Playstation 5: this is what PS5 users can do
However, it is also possible that
CoD
is causing the problems with the
Playstation 5
.
Some players have reported frequent system crashes on the
PS5
since the shooter was
released.
Meanwhile, there have also been reports of similar problems with Microsoft's next-gen gaming console, the
Xbox Series X.
But what can users do whose
PS5 is struggling
with problems in combination with
CoD
?
On the one hand, there is the option
to reboot
the
Playstation 5
.
You can do this by pressing the power button on the console for 15 seconds.
Another option is to reset
Sony's
next-gen game console
.
This is very easy to do via the internal system settings.
Call of Duty causes problems with the PS5: If in doubt, users should contact Sony
Should both of these not lead to success, the only way left in doubt is
to contact
Sony
support
and
send in
the
Playstation 5
.
Sony is now aware of the problem, but there is still no solution.
As a rule, users then hold
back a replacement device
within two weeks of sending in their
PS5
.
In any case,
at the first signs of system crashes or graphics errors in connection with
CoD
, the users of the
Playstation 5
should
exercise caution, not to continue playing and to contact an expert as soon as possible.
Otherwise there is a
risk of
serious damage to the
PS5
.

In the meantime, a luxury refiner has made sure that there is
also a very special version
of the new
Playstation 5
. The special version of this
PS5
is strictly limited. (Yannick Wenig)
