Solution 1: Update Your PS5 Firmware

Sony releases new updates regularly to remain up-to-date with upcoming bugs and issues users face either while playing The Expanse A Telltale Series or some random bugs.

It’s highly recommended to have updated PS5 firmware. You can enable automatic updates and check for them manually as well.

There are 2 ways to update PS5 firmware:

1. Through USB
   This way you would need to download the update over the internet into a USB which is an inconvenient way than PlayStation updating itself.
2. Through Internet
   PlayStation searches for an update itself, downloads it, and installs it for you.

By default, automatic updates are enabled, and in case you are not sure, here’s how you can check if there’s a new update available and how to enable automatic updates on PS5 too using PS5 UI.

NOTE: Make sure the PS5 is connected to the internet.

1. From the PS5 homepage, access Settings from the gear icon in the top right corner.
2.  Go to System
3. Click on System Software from the left menu and choose the second option: System Software Update and Settings
4. From the 2 options, select Update Using Internet.
5. Now, wait for the system to check for updates and if it’s updating don’t try to turn off your PS5. In this case, the PS5 was already up-to-date.

Your PS5 should be with its latest update by now, and you can try running The Expanse A Telltale Series to see if it’s still can’t start app.
