"Baldur's Gate 3" community is bombarded with a new headache to deal with. PS5 gamers are plagued with in-game crashes while others complain about their save files not loading. However, there's a trick to bypass them and it's very easy to do.

Crashes and Save File Woes on PS5

"Baldur's Gate 3" fans on the PlayStation 5 are facing a frustrating challenge as crashes and save file complications disrupt their gameplay. According to The Gamer, the root of this issue appears to lie within the PlayStation Network (PSN), causing headaches for players.

To navigate this problem temporarily, Larian Studios, the game's developer, suggests disconnecting from Wi-Fi and playing offline.

This workaround has proven effective, rescuing previously unresponsive save files and allowing them to function seamlessly in offline mode. However, it comes at a cost: playing offline means sacrificing background updates, a notable inconvenience for gamers.
