UPDATE: Rebellion has clarified comments made on the Zombie Army Trilogy website, stating that it’s “just as in the dark as you are about the next PS4 update”.

“Sorry Playstation gamers, I’m afraid we’re just as in the dark as you are about the next PS4 update!”, the developer said in a statement provided to VideoGamer.com this evening. “This is what we get for being organised!

“When we were putting together our wishlist for ZombieArmy.com we thought custom console themes would be a cool giveaway.

“Lo-and-behold PS4 ‘custom themes’ came out but didn’t include the ability to add custom backgrounds (which we’d already been working on), so we probably do need to tweak the wording in the website to be a bit clearer.

“At least, if they do announce custom backgrounds we’ll be the first dev to have them ready. Your move Sony!

“Anyway, if you’d like some beautiful Xbox One, smartphone, desktop and (hopefully future-proof) PS4 backgrounds, AND some exclusive Zombie Army Trilogy MP3s, head to ZombieArmy.com and sign up to the newsletter!”

Ps4 custom

ORIGINAL STORY: Custom backgrounds are coming to PS4 in a future system update, according to Sniper Elite developer Rebellion.

A reference to the unannounced feature is listed on the website of the developer’s upcoming shooter Zombie Army Trilogy, stating:

“Note for PS4 users: The ability to set a background should be available in an upcoming System Software update.”

PS4 currently only supports the option to set a dashboard theme or change the background colour. It does not allow users to set custom images as the background.

Sony has yet to formally announce details on PS4’s next system update or confirm whether it has plans to introduce custom backgrounds.
