🏷️ [ Bug Report ] Borderlands 3 crashes after some hours (2-3 hours)

I play Borderlands 3 on my Xbox Series S and it crashes after 2-3 hours. I tried everything. I used only the DLC's without the cosmetics (Buttstalion and the other weapon bundle are also disabled), still it crashes. Can anyone help me?

Not really much you can do, BL3 has had this problem on consoles since launch

Might be heat related.

I've had certain repeatable interactions crash my game, like tobbogan sliding into the bounty of blood teleporters, but if it's consistent at 2-3 hours it could be a ram stack issue in the game files. Best bet, just hit that "report error" button

So my game ran perfectly on my Xbox One, but when I upgraded to the Series S version, it shits the bed like yours does. The truth is, it’s just poorly optimized for Series S. It’s fine on XbOne and Series X, it just sucks shit on the S.

If you have a Series One, you’re better off going back a generation to run the game.

EDIT: i tried so much shit to fix this problem and in the end nothing ever worked.

Fun fact:

My Xbox One can play this game perfect. It juat have long loadingscreens, but i can play it. It sucks, that u need to have an Xbox Series X to play it properly...

Yep. Seems to be the trend.

Its either "pay for expensive console to let games fully work or f*** off u low life".

You could try the fix that works for ps. Turn off Internet then load up the game.

Me and my friend play, each on pc. I host and have no issue, he joins me and crashes out at least once a session. Also when he comes back I have to restart the game because we don’t have comms till I restart. It’s inconvenient but the game is a blast to play with friends

It’s an Xbox, can’t expect much specially since they had those overheating issues while back
