PS5 Initializing error or error in game menu
This has been going on for a while. When I want to start the game, initializing takes very long, or doesn't work. This is the error code if it doesn't work:
'Initialization error: the game has initialized incorrectly and may not save your game properly. Restarting your game may resolve the problem. (It doesn't)
Player ID: Press here to display your CloudID' (?)
When I get into the game menu and start prepping my character, in this case survivor, I randomly get this error code:
'Connection lost: the connection to the party has been lost.'
While not playing or searching for a game yet.
This has been going on for a year or something, maybe longer. I stopped playing for months and then started again, because I really like the game and bought killers and survivors. But still the same.
Also, these are just 2 examples of errors. I get errors with the archives, bloodweb, basically anything. Once in a blue moon when I get into a game, I can usually finish it. Other online games work fine.
All updates are installed. I have the PS5 version. I tried deleting it and installing it again. Nothing works.
I'm in Europe, Belgium.
I hope this can get resolved, it has caused a lot of aggravation. Thank you.

Any progress?
Just now I got this error message when trying to connect to the game (not in menus yet):
'CONNECTION ERROR: Cannot connect to online services. Please try again later.
Error code: 8,024'

I’ve been getting both the Initialization Error and the Connection Error. I also got the ‘Quit Game’ error: “The game version is invalid. Please update to a valid version.” I’m on PS5 and in the US.
