Be careful while you're playing through Final Fantasy 16, as a particular moment in the game seems to be shutting down PS5s due to overheating.
Final Fantasy 16 is obviously quite a visually intensive game, so it isn't a huge surprise to hear that it might be pushing the PS5 a bit in places - especially considering this is Square Enix's first big game on the platform made just for it. Now, as spotted by Push Square, players are reporting that their PS5s are overheating, because of one scene in particular. Twitter user Adrian Liew shared a screenshot of the scene in question (you can check out their tweet below), so you can prepare for the possibility of your PS5 turning off.
Other players have pointed out similar issues on the Final Fantasy subreddit, with numerous players noting that they are on graphics mode specifically. Like in many graphics modes, the priority is graphical fidelity over smooth performance and a stable framerate. That isn't necessarily what causes the issue though, as some that have played on performance mode have also found that their consoles are crashing at the scene in question.
