Description:
Larian is investigating PS5 crashes during Baldurs Gate 3, and a more permanent solution is in the works.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Baldurs Gate 3 had a pretty smooth launch on PC when it arrived on August 3, but the same cannot be said for its arrival on PS5 which came on September 6. Unfortunately, several users are taking to sites like Reddit to report issues with the game, including sudden crashes that are preventing players from
being able to load their games.

However, these issues are not being ignored by Larian - the studio took to Twitter to state that it's looking into the issue and has come up with a temporary solution to use while it investigates further, which is to disconnect your PS5 from the internet prior to booting up the game.

The cause of the crashes is believed to be a PSN-related problem, which is
why disconnecting your console from the internet will temporarily resolve the issue. Several users have reported that attempting to boot the game several times usually results in a successful launch, but this isnt exactly a
workable solution for long-term use.

The best way to keep up to date with Larians progress on resolving the issue is by keeping an eye on the Baldurs Gate 3 Twitter page , which is where the initial issue was addressed. Hopefully, it wont be too long before a more permanent solution is put in place and players will be able to boot their
game and jump back in with no issues whatsoever, and the experience will be
as streamlined as the initial launch on PC.
