Hot on the heels of promising some customisation options based on the new Xbox logo (and indeed off the back of us covering some other dynamic backgrounds, thanks Microsoft!), the team has unleashed a raft of new backgrounds, profile themes and gamer pics centred around Xbox’s fresh logo design.
Yep, all of this stuff is rolling out to Xbox users now – and includes a dynamic background based on each console generation’s version of the new logo, alongside Xbox profile themes and gamer pics using the same core designs. We’ll link to some examples that folks have shared on these down below:

New Xbox gamerpics
Kiln’s gamerpics were added a few weeks ago but I forgot to report https://t.co/uN63BTEl2L pic.twitter.com/VJuXq6CsqM

Hey Xbox! If you were only seeing three of the four dynamic backgrounds earlier, please check again: it’s fixed now. https://t.co/tiZ7d3RrKC— Eden Marie (@neonepiphany) May 1, 2026
These are all pretty cool – we particularly like the profile themes as they look nice and slick with all of your gamertag details surrounding the logo designs. Other than that, we’d like Microsoft to focus on more backgrounds that are properly dynamic, but we’re certainly not going to complain at some more options that look very Xbox here.
As we just covered some more game-themed backgrounds earlier today, we’ll chuck a link to our coverage on that down below – and yep, we’re off to mess about with all of these new customisation options and see if we land on a combo we really dig!
Are you going to look at these and get some applied? Talk to us about all of this down in the comments below.
