Having the same issue on PS5 . Just freezes, doesn’t even go into a crash report. But turning off cross play let me in.

Just got into the thicket after 5+ freezes and restarting my PS4 slim.
I disabled the cross play settings and entered the area from the northwest and it still crashed. Force closed app, tried again but this time when I got to the entrance of the thicket I made a town portal and when I returned to the thicket entrance it finally loaded properly.

This is how I managed to progress through the thicket on PS5:

  1. Go to Options → Social
  2. Turn off Cross-Network Play and Cross-Network Communications
  3. Restart the game
  4. Go to the thicket entrance and stand still for a few seconds before trying to enter.
  5. Enjoy

Still can’t get in.

Have tried maybe 10 times now, and tried all the combinations above.

Unable to progress campaign…great waste of Ultimate edition !

I’m on Xbox One with this issue; so it looks like it is a bug accross all platforms now. I locked up 5 times now trying to progress the main story and enter this zone. Ive troed all the above remedies to no avail, minus the friend inviting into the zone, as I have none with the game. The last attempt I disabled the cross platform play, got to the entrance, and tried the town portal remedy… without trying to enter the cursed thicket, just opening the town portal by its wntrance cause the game to freeze. This is infuriating! Come on Blizzard!!! The game it literally unplayable as this is a REQUIRED quest! I’m so flipping pissed right now.

i play on PS5 n on world tier 2. i initally started by changing the cross-plat setting. that had no results. after restarting the game, i continued on to changing from tier 2 to tier 1. that did help. i was able to continue the act easily

edit: what worked for me is having cross-plat off and being on world tier 1 to continue

Had this issue on PS4.
Nothing helped, apart from a friend joining the party and going inside, and me teleporting on them.

What finally worked for me on PS4:

-Disabled cross-platform
-Entered area from the north west
-Moved as far into the entrance as I could
-Cast Blood Howl and immediately hit X to enter

Finally loaded after about 10–15 crashes.

Can see this thread was originally created 9 days ago - just an update to say the bug persists for now.

Came up for me today playing couch co-op on ps5.
Tried disabling cross-play and completing another quest to fix it.

After about 5 separate crashes (trying different things) this one worked like a charm.
