  1. Why do games keep crashing on my Series S?


    I’ve searched this topic and it seems like a common occurrence. I can’t play games I’ve bought and paid for because the system keeps crashing, often turning itself off altogether.

    I’ve tried the fixes suggested in other threads but have had no luck.

    This isn’t acceptable.

    :)

    I don’t have a pc and a hard drive to do that….?

    And I tried both options.

    Oh... Understood, and you don't have a family member or friend who lives close to you with a PC and a USB drive?

    I just want to confirm, if you maybe have an external HDD or accessories connected to the console please try disconnecting everything else besides the power cable before checking again.

    And, if you didn't tried yet, try to connect your console to another socket or room.

    Besides that, I'm afraid to say that you need to open a repair request for your console

    Thanks for the additional information. When you performed the console reset, did you selected "keep my games and apps" or "delete everything"?

    If you selected "keep my games and apps" try instead the other option

    And may I know if your console is enrolled to the Insiders program?

    If your console is not enrolled to the program I recommend you to perform an offline update before opening a repair request for your device

    Re-installing the game

    Resetting console

    Cache deletion

    I’ve tried these several times with several games and it’s the same issue.
