NBA 2K22 crashing on PS4 and PS5: How to fix error code CE-34878-0?

A range of errors have popped up in recent weeks on NBA 2K22, with some of them apparently coming up due to the updates that have been released in the game. Regardless, as far as the error code CE-34878-0 is concerned, the first step that players have claimed sometimes works is simply restarting the console.

While this is not a problem for all kinds of errors that PC players are getting, the same fix is not a good idea for PS4/PS5 users. Restarting the console repeatedly is not recommended, although gamers have said that sometimes simply restarting the game has also worked out for them.

Secondly, a lot of gamers who got the error code CE-34878-0 also noted that they were not playing online, and hence had not downloaded the latest updates as the offline game modes do not require them to do so. However, once the players updated their NBA 2K22 to the latest version, the error did not come up repeatedly. Hence, making sure that the game is updated is the second step that gamers can take.

Finally, gamers also reported that the error code is especially popping up due to a corruption of game files, an issue that is expected to be fixed by NBA 2K in the coming days. However, until that happens, getting the error code whilst trying to load the MyCareer mode means that gamers might have to delete the saved file in order to get rid of the error. This is the final solution for gamers who want to play Online, but cannot due to the game crashing repeatedly. Getting rid of the saved files and cached files was also reported to have fixed the error.
