Solutions For Fixing Ghost of Tsushima Crashing on PS4
Fix 1 – Reboot your console and modem
By restarting everything we mean rebooting your PS4 console and power cycling your modem. To eliminate all the temporary files that might clog up your devices, we recommend removing the power cords completely and leaving your console unplugged for one minute.
As you already know, too many temporary files could negatively affect your console’s game performance.
Once you’ve done that, connect the power cord and restart your console. Your cache is cleared and Ghost of Tsushima should no longer crash. Check if you can now play Ghost of Tsushima.
Fix 2 – Get the latest PS4 and game updates
Installing the latest updates is crucial when playing games on your PS4. Make sure you’re running the latest PS4 system software version and check if there is any new game patch available.
To update the title, open your game library, go to Ghost of Tsushima and hover over and then press the Options button on your controller. Select Check for update to see if there are any pending updates.
Game glitches are usually quickly fixed by means of patches. Keep Ghost of Tsushima updated all the time to ensure you benefit from the latest game patches and hotfixes. Game updates should download automatically, if you can also manually check for updates just to be completely sure.
Fix 3 – Check your hardware
Game crashing is often an indication of a bad storage problem or overheating issues. Make sure you’ve got enough free space left on your console so as to properly run your favorite games.
If some of your console’s hardware components are overheating, you’ll experience game crashes. Place your console in a well ventilated place and don’t keep it in direct sun light.
If your PS4 continues to overheat, this could indicate a major hardware malfunction. In this case, you need to contact Sony and have your console checked or repaired.
Fix 4 – Reinstall Ghost of Tsushima
If nothing worked, maybe some of the game files failed to install properly or they got corrupted shortly after launch for whatever reasons. You can fix that by deleting and reinstalling the game.
By reinstalling the game, you’ll also lose your game progress — that’s why this solution is your last resort.
We hope something worked.
