The easiest fix for most people when it comes to poor performance on consoles is to simply restart it. If you have been playing FragPunk for extended hours, it can lead to your console overheating, which can lead to performance depletion. This is why you should give it a little rest before you start it again.

If this did not help, you can also power cycle your Xbox by following these steps:

• Press and hold the Xbox button on the console for roughly 10 seconds.
• Remove the cables from your console.
• Replug all the cables after roughly 10 seconds and turn on the console again.

2) Check for FragPunk and Xbox firmware updates

Even though games automatically get updated for most people thanks to automatic updates, you can also manually check for any pending updates. If there are any, download them. This will ensure that you are using the latest version of the game that might have fixed any performance issues from the developers' side.

Moreover, make sure that you are using the latest available firmware on your console as well.

3) Check for poor ventilation and overheating issues

Even after restarting, if you are still experiencing poor performance while playing FragPunk, ensure that your console is not in a poorly ventilated place like a closed cabinet. If so, relocate it. Also, get rid of any dust particles on your console.

Once you manage to sort out the overheating problem, you are unlikely to face any more crashes.
