My PS5 only over heats and sends me the notification when I’m trying to play 2k21 next gen that I purchased digitally yesterday. But for some odd reason all of my digital games that I transferred from my PS4 works perfectly fine. Any suggestions for some type of resolution to this problem ?

Which 2k21 game are you playing? I have no issues with PGA 2k21 but I'm guessing you're playing something else....
 
Standard edition with Zion on the cover. It only overheats when in game

I've no idea who/what Zion is. I'm going to guess you're talking about NBA 2K21 but it might be helpful if you could just tell us 🙂.
 
Yes NBA2K21 next Gen. my bad, the system only over heats when in game playing NBA2K21 next gen
 
I think he's on about the digits version of this:-

I’ve not heard any stories about overheating PS5’s. Where do you keep yours?
 
This notification comes on and I can hear the fans turn on. Only when I’m in game on nba2k21 next Gen.

Is the fan working?

Edit: cross-posted :D
 
How long can you play before it overheats?
 
I’m surprised that overheats there, it looks a lot better ventilated than many I’ve seen. I wonder if it’s some sort of game related bug causing it, as it’s only that game.
 
It may be a hardware fault being shown up by a more demanding game. This is my hunch. Obviously whether others have the same issue or not will give us a better idea.

Does the game have any different graphics modes?
 
There’s a thread for the game here Nba 2k21

It might be worth asking in there if any other players have experienced the same?

It’s doesn’t have graphics mode that I know of. Cant find any. I’m assuming it’s a bug or hardware fault.

I’m having the same issue, were you able to find out the issue? It also happened twice when playing RE8

I didn’t actually have this issue, I haven’t played the game in question. I was just trying to help the member who was.
 
Here's an analysis of the cooling solutions in the PS5. Memory runs hot.
