"PS5 Overheating Causes Meltdown at Fighting Game Tournament"
At the Evo 2023 fighting game tournament in Las Vegas, some players experienced issues with their PS5 consoles overheating, causing their USB connectors to melt. While not a widespread problem, several players reported melted USB cords and connectors, potentially due to the consoles running hot under the continuous usage during the tournament. The irony is that Evo is run by Sony, the maker of the PS5, leading to skepticism about the event being influenced by the platform holder. Sony and Evo have not yet commented on the issue.
