Final Fantasy XVI has finally launched, and it is getting a very positive response from its fanbase indeed. Apart from being one of this year’s most successful titles, this game is also getting rave reviews from critics everywhere.

This game has indeed pushed this series in a new direction. Featuring new combat mechanics and a somewhat unusual narrative, it does indeed have much to offer its players. Aside from all this, one more thing that stood out profoundly is this game’s visuals. But it looks like those visuals are causing some trouble in paradise.

Is causing PlayStation 5 consoles to overheat?

When Mark Cerny revealed the PlayStation 5 and explained its architecture to the buyer base, they made it a point to mention that this console would run very cool. This proved to be a truth too: Sony’s latest generation of console might not know much, but it knows how to stay cool.

It has handled some really demanding games and has stayed cool in some of the most demanding of circumstances. Graphically intense games are everywhere nowadays, from Demon Souls Remake to Gran Turismo. This console has handled them like it’s supposed to, by staying cool and quiet. The ventilation and that liquid metal thing seem to really work to keep this console cool.

But it appears this well-made machine has found its match in the form of Square Enix’s latest masterpiece, Final Fantasy XVI. Reports have started dropping on the internet talking about how this game is overheating most PlayStation 5 consoles. This problem seems like a well-spread one too. Those posts are seeing a bunch of supporters too. A number of fans are coming out with a similar problem.

If this problem is actually as widespread as it seems, here’s hoping that Square Enix is listening to this criticism and is currently working on a fix. For the time being, Final Fantasy XVI seems like one of those games that users have to start playing at their own risk.

And here’s hoping they come up with a solution before those consoles actually get damaged due to this problem. It might just be something related to the optimization of this game. Till then, it is advised that people play this game in short bursts of time, in order to keep their consoles cool.
