This is my fix:
In the ResourceManager.cs find the Struct Resource<T> and change this

no, this happens at any resolution (also on the PC) when the particles are a lot and having a quite short life. When the engine reaches that method the _resource has been disposed already (too quickly) so it's null. The above fix solves the issue and the game runs smoothly.
