How to Fix Fallout 4 Crashing on Startup PS5 Error?
The Fallout 4 community quickly pinpointed what was making the game crash at start-up. It seems specific DLC contents, specifically Automatron plus Wasteland Workshop expansions, are contradicting the next-gen update.
To fix the error follow the steps mentioned below:
- Remove Fallout 4 as well as every other piece of software that comes with these games off your PS5 Console. Then we can install them again from scratch.
- Uninstall first before reinstalling only Fallout 4 base game exclusive of DLC packs; this will help find out whether it is an issue within the DLC contents or not.
- Play the game but without any add-ons being active; if it loads well there aren’t any mistakes happening during that period which is a sign that one/more DLCs are at fault.
- After you know that the main game is well installed, install the Add-Ons one after the other carefully. Look closely into Automatron and Wasteland Workshop add-ons. Once you install an add-on and the game starts crashing again you know the one responsible for it.
- Watch out for any Fallout 4 update released by the developers. You can also contact Bethesda Support to raise a ticket.
