I also experienced what sounds like the same issue; 2 days ago now, we were playing with 3 players split screen on PS4. One of the players (the primary player) died, and we decided that was the moment to leave. I'm pretty sure we saved the game as usual, but I'm not 100% sure. Next time we tried to load the world, it refused - stuck on 'Generating world / Building terrain' with a full bar. We tried a few things - killing and restarting the app, restarting the PS4, and nothing worked. We then tried leaving it for several (3 or 4?) hours in case that would help, but still no joy.
