In the EVO Japan 2025 "Crime Equipment-Fighting-" finals, the equipment malfunctioned due to overheating of the PS5 console, causing the finalists to encounter an irreversible competitive disadvantage.This world's top fighting event, partially controlled by Sony, has recently fallen into a whirlpool of public opinion due to hardware issues.

As the world's largest fighting game event, EVO has developed into an e-sports benchmark that attracts thousands of players and hundreds of thousands of viewers in recent years.Since Sony acquired the EVO brand, the event has fully adopted PS5 as a competition machine.Although this move is in line with business logic, the hardware problems exposed in the final of this EVO Japanese station "Crime Equipment-Fighting-" once again triggered doubts about the stability of a single platform.

American player RedDitto suffered a controller adapter failure in the final, and he accused the PS5 of overheating through a social platform that may be the culprit.The game video shows that when the two sides reached a critical game of 2:2 draw, RedDitto and South Korean opponent Kim Jae-won (ID: Daru) both had operation interruptions.The Arc World Tour champion posted a post after the game saying that "PS5 is about to melt my Brooke adapter", which resonates with many professional players, and criticizes the risk of the event's over-reliance on the PS5 platform.

According to players on the scene, RedDitto had to borrow other people's equipment before the finals due to the meltdown of the adapter.Considering that the competition machine needs to operate at a high load for a long time, the stability of the PS5 cooling system is indeed facing a test.Although the event has not issued a formal statement, professional player Punk immediately disclosed a similar experience - he also lost due to the sudden failure of the controller in the "Legend of the Hungry Wolf: Wolf City" competition, and pointed out that the same problem occurred during the 2024 EVO "Street Fighter 6" competition.

Some players have called on social platforms that events should be reintroduced to the Xbox platform to improve stability.It is worth noting that EVO official Twitter deleted multiple questioning comments after the incident fermented, but the related discussions continue to heat up in the fighting game community.As this year's EVO World Championship approaches, hardware standards issues may trigger wider industry discussions.
