Actually, more than your typical stability update. Included in this firmware update are a few small tweaks. Here are the patch notes:

  • Music in the control centre is now much easier to use. With its two-column layout, you can easily browse various categories, playlists and songs.
  • You can avoid unintentionally broadcasting your surroundings while broadcasting games with your PlayStation VR2.
    • Go to Settings > Accessories > PlayStation VR2, and turn on Block See-Through View on TV to prevent the camera see-through image from being displayed on your TV while using your PSVR2.
  • If you say "What's new?" via Voice Command on any screen, you can now check for new PS5 features.
    • Currently, Voice Command (Preview) is only available in English for players with accounts for PlayStation Network in the US and UK.
  • We've improved the messages and usability on some screens.

How would themes even work on the PS5 interface? There isn’t anywhere near as much dead space on the screen as there was on PS4 and PS3.
Thts part of the reason it was said it would never happen because the PS5 interface is already dynamic.

Where it’s at.

Yeah, the design of the PS5 interface just doesn’t suit customization, as much as I miss stuff like my Jack Skellington dynamic theme on the PS3 and the Dokodemo Issyo Toro’s House theme on the PS4

The PS3 interface had full image game backgrounds and it still had themes.

PS5 UI design is more heavily background image based (which I love the look of) Sony then should make it a setting where you can choose to which design you want. The normal background or themes.

Its excuses they can implement it they just don't care for it.

Never, every game has its icon and background, etc. there is no point because of how the OS works.

I mean, pick a couple of system icons, font and colors... That's just not worth the effort.
