Why is Wardog’s Red’s Return not working on PS4?
Why is Wardog’s Red’s Return not working on PS4?
I’ve recently tried to play Wardog’s Red’s Return on my PS4, but I’m running into persistent problems that are preventing me from enjoying the game. Whenever I attempt to start it, I either get stuck on the loading screen, or the game crashes unexpectedly after a few minutes of gameplay. I’ve made sure that my PS4 system software is up-to-date, and I’ve even tried reinstalling the game, but nothing seems to fix the issue. This is really frustrating because I’ve been looking forward to playing Wardog’s Red’s Return, and I’m not sure what else I can do to get it working properly. Has anyone else experienced similar problems, or is there something specific about this game that causes these issues?

One common cause is an issue with the latest game update. If this is the case, you could try:
1. Going to ‘Notifications’ on the PS4 home screen.
2. Finding the latest update notification for ‘Wardog’s Red’s Return.’
3. Pressing ‘Options’ and selecting ‘Delete.’
4. Re-downloading the update by launching the game.
This can reset the update process, resolving any issues from the initial download.
I’ve addressed similar issues with both software and hardware in mind. Here’s what I found helpful:
1. Check if the disc (if you’re using one) is clean and not scratched.
2. Ensure there’s ample storage space on your PS4 if you’re using a digital copy.
3. Restart the console and then boot the game.
4. If possible, try playing the game on a different PS4 to see if the issue is with the game or your console.
These steps help determine if the problem lies in the game or system.
I had this problem, and it turned out to be corrupted game data. Here’s how I fixed it:
1. Go to ‘Settings’ on your PS4.
2. Navigate to ‘Storage’ then ‘System Storage.’
3. Select ‘Applications’ and find ‘Wardog’s Red’s Return.’
4. Press ‘Options’ and select ‘Delete.’
5. Reinstall the game from your library or the PlayStation Store.
Doing this cleared out the corrupted files, and I could play the game without issues.
Sometimes interference from other applications or settings can cause issues. Try the following:
1. Close any other applications running in the background.
2. Adjust your console’s settings by navigating to ‘Settings’ -> ‘Initialization’ -> ‘Restore Default Settings.’
This won’t delete any data but will reset system settings. After doing this, the game worked perfectly for me.
Sometimes minor glitches cause significant problems. I fixed my issue by rebuilding the PS4 database:
1. Turn off your PS4 completely (not just Rest Mode).
2. Hold the power button for 7 seconds until you hear the second beep.
3. Connect your controller via USB and select ‘Rebuild Database’ from the Safe Mode menu.
This can take some time but fixes many performance issues without deleting data.
I experienced a similar issue, and it was due to my internet connection. The game would hang on the loading screen because it couldn’t connect to the server. Here’s what I did:
– Restarted my router.
– Used a wired connection for a more stable network.
– Checked for any PlayStation Network maintenance or server downtimes.
Once my network was stable, the game loaded and ran smoothly.
