How To Fix PS4 Black Screen Issue [Updated 2024]

The black screen problem is a major issue that certain PS4 owners may experience. Even in the middle of a game, it might happen unexpectedly to some people. Sometimes folks will be playing on their console the day before without any problems, and then the next day they'll turn it on and all they'll see is a black screen.
In most cases, resolving a PS4 black screen is an easy. If no video or picture is showing up on your screen, try the following fixes.

    It’s weird how a LOT of people are currently experiencing this issue after the recent PS4 update. Mine just started acting up yesterday morning. I changed the HDMI cables, restarted my PS4 (several times), put my PS4 on safe mode, etc. Nothing’s worked. I’m starting to think it’s more of a Sony problem than the actual PS4 itself.

My screen is black how am I supposed to see and go to screen settings on my PS4?😂 Update: used my living room TV to change settings.

    I’ve had this problem for about a year.. the only thing that works for me is switch on PS4 in safe mode and select “initialise” It reboots the whole system, you have to re-sign in and download your purchased games again, bit of a pain waiting for everything to download again but it’s prolonging my ability to use it... it may be the new downloads so you could unplug the PS4 when not in use.

    My screen goes black and then comes back to the picture. It does it quite often. I have bought a new HDMI cable and it still does it. Ever since I downloaded the Days Gone game that's when it first started. It can't be an overheating issue. It does it as soon as I turn the console on.
