Hello everyone, since my Changing the PS4 System Sounds Tutorial and How to Make a Custom Dynamic PS4 Theme Guide posted earlier, I (aka florinsdistortedvision) decided to make a PlayStation 4 custom Dynamic Theme PS4 PKG for Persona 3 using the Aegis character.

Download: Persona 3 Aegis Theme.pkg (22.5 MB) / Persona_3_Aegis_Theme.pkg (Mirror) / PS4DynamicThemesRepo GIT / Orbis Unjailed Wiki

It uses custom music (Burn My Dread Last Battle + intro electric piano from Persona Live 2013), custom icons (default icons but dark blue & gray) and Persona 3 UI sound effects.

Icon:

Main dynamic background:

Also, I decided to make a GitHub repo that will hold custom dynamic themes. If you made a theme, let me know and I will upload it.
