My xbox one x automatically shutdown and displays the overheating message on the lunch of...

Citadel forged with fire when i load the main menu it crashes and ace combat 7 when I'm shot down in multiplayer matches

Could you tell us what games you are trying to play?

I know of Borderlands 3 and Destiny 2 being games that seem to cause a crash with the console supposedly "overheating". Also the last Call of Duty was patched for that issue.

I am having the same problem with NBA 2K20 and only this game. I can't get passed halftime in a game without the my Xbox One X completely shutting down. When I turn the Xbox One X back on, I get a message that it shutdown to prevent overheating. The console
is in a well ventilated open space.

I have zero issues with any other game or app.

Thank you very much for your help! OK so please do not talk this the wrong way, but you did not entirely answer my question, the information you gave me was very helpful indeed but my real question was, "Is my Xbox One X damaged at all? Is it's lifespan
shortened because of it overheating and displaying that warning message? And what about that burning smell it made when it was getting too hot, does that smell mean it melted something in the console and that it's permanently burnt/melted? or is that just
the smell it makes when it's getting too hot? The console did shut down automatically so that does mean it saved the system from being destroyed correct?" the console runs perfectly now and it is in a very well ventilated area, i haven't heard the fan spin
loud, I haven't smelt any burning sensation ever since I put it in a ventilated spot. So although it runs perfectly fine now, has it been damaged at all from the overheating that caused it to shutdown and display that warning message?

My Xbox One X Occasionally auto shuts down and when rebooted gives the overheating warning..........Now I can play apex legends for 5 hours straight with no issues my son plays Fortnite for 30mins and it shuts down and this was from a cold startup
first thing in the morning It only seems to happen with Fortnite, I also play COD Warzone with no issues oh and the internal fan is working and I have also cleared the dust!. anyone else experiencing these issues?

it is probably just a bug
