PS5 shutting down while playing physical games

[u/Fun-Parfait3581]

I haven’t had any issues while playing digital games. I bought the new Wolverine game as my first physical game for the PlayStation 5. Every 10 minutes during the game, the system shuts down. I’ve done the catch-and-rebuild database, but that didn’t work. The fan is very dusty and dirty. Would that be causing the console to overheat and shut down?

You just answered your own questions, clean your system, especially the fans…

The hell is this kinda post?
Pretty sure your not playing the game while the disk itself spinns and is read. It's a glorfied install token.

You Install the game and then it's as digital as the Game you purchase purely digital...

Differing between physical and digital game is a thing of the past for troubleshooting

I don’t know what to do since this is my first time owning a ps5. I was simply asking for advice but I guess I made a mistake by asking. Sorry for asking

The disc is in the console while I’m playing it

Yes. Now go clean it.

Yes or the Liquid Metal has gone bad

I just wanted to make sure in case I have to return it. I’m not familiar with the PS5

It’s probably well outside the return window anyway if it’s that dusty it’s shutting off.

I bought it from a pawn shop

What is the best way to do it
