Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems PS5 "Overheating" - Level up crashes

Despite opening up and cleaning my PS5, cranking the AC, and using a fan to help blow away the hot exhaust air,
I still get an INSTANT crash every time I try to level up, and occasionally at other random moments.
This PS5 only crashes with BG3, and has never had an issue before.
I'm running with performance mode turned OFF as well.

Is anyone else having the same issue DESPITE cleaning and proper cooling?
Will there be a patch or something to fix this?
The game is completely unplayable for me unless I want to stay at my current level.

I haven't even made it passed character creation without the game crashing. I've reinstalled several times and even done a factory reset and it still keeps crashing within 5 minutes. I'm very upset that I bought a PS5 just for this game that I can't even play

I have about 55 hours on my PS5 version. I haven't had a single crash. I have over 200 hours on the Steam version and never had a crash on that platform either.
