How To Fix Battlefield 5 Crashing Issue On Xbox One
One of the common problems that some Battlefield 5 players encounter is their game crashing for no apparent reason. If you happen to encounter this issue and you have no idea how to fix it, you’ve come to the right blog.
Possible causes why Battlefield 5 is crashing on Xbox One
If your Xbox One is crashing when you play Battlefield 5, you’ll have to consider a number of factors to know how to deal with the problem. Below are some of the common reasons why your Battlefield 5 is crashing.
Corrupted cache or saved game.
If your Xbox One crashes to the main menu when in the middle of playing Battlefield 5, it may be caused by a corrupted game progress or cache. An Xbox One uses a temporary set of files called cache in order to load a game. Sometimes, this cache may become corrupted causing a game to crash randomly. It’s recommended that you clear the console’s cache if you encounter crashing issues on one or multiple games.
A corrupted or outdated game save or progress can likewise lead to crashes from time to time. You can also try to delete the possible corrupted game save and see if that will fix the problem.
Random game or console bug.
Sometimes, an Xbox One may suddenly stop working out of the blue for a number of reasons. If there appears to be no pattern that you can find, or if the crashes are infrequent, this may be due to a random game or console glitch. For example, if Battlefield 5 appears to have crashed as indicated by visual glitches, pixelation, or screen distortion but the sound is still on, the likely culprit for that may be console-related. You may have an Xbox One crashing issue to deal with first.
Game coding issue.
The other possible cause for Battlefield 5 crashes may have nothing to do with the console. In many cases, inefficient codes are the problem. If you noticed that the game started to crash after installing a new update for it, the new patch may be to blame. Unfortunately, there’s nothing much that you can do about this issue except to wait for a new patch in the near future.
Game disc (if using a disc) is dirty, scratched, or cracked.
If you play Battlefield 5 using a game disc, make sure that you have it cleaned and checked for obvious signs of damage (cracks or scratches). Keep in mind that your Xbox One console can tolerate certain severity of scratches so don’t worry if you noticed some scratches on your disc.
The best way to know if you have a game disc issue though is to try another game disc of Battlefield 5. If possible, try to borrow a Battlefield 5 disc from a friend and see if you can play the game without it crashing.
Obviously, if you have the digital version of battlefield, you don’t have to consider this factor so simply ignore this.
