Hello,
It's been almost 4-5 months since I bought my PS4.
It's working great but the thing is it's fan is almost working at full speed since yesterday that too since when I first inserted Last Of Us disc.
Other blurays and digital games such as Fifa 15, PES 15 demo and free games etc are working fine but whenever I run this game fan gets kicked in at full speed.
Is it normal or is it due to the new 2.01 update? Because I updated my PS4 on Saturday!
Note:
Ps4 region is 1.
Game region is 2.
Ps4 is almost cleaned everyday even the side vents to remove the dust.
There is plenty of space from behind and sides.
Ps4 is placed horizontally.
Thanks in advance! :) :)

Some games are power hungry as in terms of graphics, more intense graphics will result into more power, resulting in higher fan speeds to accomodate higher heat generation.

This happened to me as well, when ever I started playing TLOU, the PS4 would get quite loud. But anyhow i kept playing on as my initial analysis was the same, the game must be power hungry.

Nothing happened though. My PS4 works great!

Thanks for your reply! :)
Does your PS4 now makes sound even on other games or just TLOU?

Anytime =)

Nope haven't come across any game uptil which put such stress on my PS4. Haven't played the very recent releases due to lack of time, papers coming up :'(

However during peak summers occasionally my PS4 would get loud.

While the ps4 is running blow inside the fan vents to get rid of any dust that has accumulated inside the fan dont worry if you get dust in your mouth

also since climate in paksitan gets very hot its puts a huge load on the cooling system of ps4 so make you sure you have a cool room with air conditioning on or you play during the evening and night when the temp has dropped alittle or just buy a small fan that brings in new cool air behind your ps4

and like the rest said some games are just to heavy also make you sure there is no downloading going on in the background
hope it helps my brothers ps4 used to run pretty hot, turns out there was pile of dust blocking the air

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
