How to Fix Forspoken Crashing on PS5

The first step to fix Forspoken crashing on the PS5 is to check for updates. Make sure both the console and game are updated to the latest version. An older version may be causing crashing on the PS5.

If the game still crashes, you should try deleting all saved data as corrupted saved game data could be a cause of crashing. Go to Settings >> Storage >> Saved Data >> Forspoken. Then press the Options button on the controller and delete the chosen game-saved files. Reboot the PS5 afterwards.

If this does not solve the issue, try rebooting your console into Safe Mode. To do this, press and hold the power button until the console turns off. Then press the PS button on the controller and select "Reboot Console in Safe Mode". Select "Rebuild Database" from the Games Library option. This will delete corrupted data and help address any storage-related issues.

If the issue persists, it could be a hardware issue such as a slow processor or inadequate RAM. If you have an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 3.7GHz or slower CPU, or an AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT 8GB or lower GPU, or an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6 GB VRAM, you may need to upgrade your hardware.
