Last week, with the arrival of the new dynamic background from Rare for Xbox, we received many questions on social media about how to change the themes and wallpapers on our Xbox Series.

That’s why we’ve decided to create this video to show you how to quickly and easily change your themes and customize your console. The steps are simple, but I must admit, it took me a few tries to figure it out, as I don’t do it often, and I had to navigate through the console menus to find the right option.

How to change themes on Xbox Series

• In Xbox Series, themes and wallpapers are customization options that allow you to change the visual appearance of the console interface. Themes modify elements like menu colors and transition effects, while wallpapers are fixed or dynamic images displayed behind the icons and menus on the dashboard. These can be static, animated, or even interactive, and you can choose from Xbox’s default options, download from the store, or set up your own captures and achievements to give your console a unique look.
