    @AskPlayStation so my ps5 has been shutting off randomly over the last month. I’ve tried everything from rebuilding the data base to hard resetting and reloading the games and still nothing. I don’t know what else to do!? Can someone help with this problem!!

  • Phoenix90523807 Phoenix (@Phoenix90523807) reported

    @PlayStation Hope a developer sees this. Please fix the checkpoints. I can not start at chess because it will not let me open the door from the explorer side. It makes me stuck between the gate and the door to get to chess. And I have to quit the game and start all the way over. I have ps5

  • ma672444 lol (@ma672444) reported

    @AskPlayStation Im having an issue downloading Horizon Zero dawn on my ps5. I got it for free as a free monthly ps plus game. No error messages appear. It shows up in my library but is locked and only gives me the option to buy it

  • MadmansMagic joe mami (@MadmansMagic) reported

    @DavidVonderhaar the last two times I’ve played firebase z, my playstation completely froze up and I was forced to unplug it. It only happens when I play firebase Z. Is this a known issue? Anything I can do? Thanks :)

  • thatdudealv Alvaro💯 (@thatdudealv) reported

    @AskPlayStation Hey, I have seen that my PS4 and others’ have been rendered useless after the 8.03. I had a PS4 Pro that I had barely used for a year, and now it doesn’t work. It is not a hardware issue. Will there be a new update in the future to fix this?

  • PRODIGYJ6 PRODIGY-J (@PRODIGYJ6) reported

    @PlayApex @PlayStation please fix the blue screens for apex please I beg you I cannot explain to you how many times I’ve gotten a blue screen in the middle of a RANKED GAME

    It'll be a sad day if Playstation ever decides to move away from single player games to free-to-play, live service, etc.

  • CaptainKrugger CaptainKRUGGER (@CaptainKrugger) reported

    @Kotaku My dualsense controller is facing the same problem. I haven’t played much only 10 to 12 hours in total since i bought PS5. What do i do now?! @PlayStation the controller should at least last upto 12 months or more. 10 to 12 hours is a joke.

  • Karirema Kari (@Karirema) reported

    Also @AskPlayStation still hasn’t answered my question about filing a problem with my dualshocks because their website is wack

    @elonmusk I would love to try out Starlink. I got the email that I'm eligible to sign up for the service, but that hardware is the price of a @PlayStation 5. Hopefully the price of the hardware will come down in the future I'd love to get rid of my current awful ISP.

  • MontyPaulMoore Monty-Paul Moore (@MontyPaulMoore) reported

    @AskPlayStation I’m in Ireland. My account is locked due to 2sV. Which I never set up. Uk customer service can’t help me. US customer service won’t help me. They send me to internet, which puts me in a loop, which blocks me because I’m in Ireland. Region change, same results

  • AdesanyaAdemolu Ademolu Adesanya (@AdesanyaAdemolu) reported

    @PlayStation Please Sony fix freezing PS4 screen in menu and in games

  • MDoctor366 MrDoctor366 (@MDoctor366) reported

    @Kotaku I mean, at least I assume PlayStation is acknowledging that it’s an actual problem? As opposed to Nintendo who continues to state that it isn’t real and we’re all a bunch of drama queens?

  • freddiepearce19 freddie pearce (@freddiepearce19) reported

    @AskPlayStation I keep getting error code NP-38551-2 and I’ve looked everywhere but can’t find a solution

    @ElioHyena As a PlayStation owner this made laugh hard XD (Through seriously..Nintendo and Sony need to fix their drift issues)

  • kuzutansan (@kuzutansan) reported

    @AskPS_UK I have some questions I'm interested in applying for a job in your customer service department is there a way you can forward me a link to where I can apply please.

  • PatientGamer2 Patient Gamer (@PatientGamer2) reported

    @THEAP99 @Kotaku I've got 2 - it happens and @playstation need to do better - battery life and disconnections are also an issue.

  • kitsunephantasm Kitsunephantasm (@kitsunephantasm) reported

    @pokejungle Also in Japan they don’t have these issues be it with Pokémon or the PlayStation 5. We as people needed to do better.

  • charlotte_0946 charlotte (@charlotte_0946) reported

  • MCeher Pumpkin 🌺 (@MCeher) reported

    @AskPlayStation If only my PS5 would stay connected to the internet for more than 5 minutes 😒 honestly I'm getting very angry about it. Is not even fair that you don't give an answer if you are going to fix it or not. 😡

  • SKaparakis stelios kaparakis (@SKaparakis) reported
