Time to spice up your Xbox One.

The November System Update went live over the weekend, and one of the coolest new features it adds is the ability to set a custom background. So, we’ve decided to help you give your console a geeky makeover. Below are eight backgrounds based fun things like the original Xbox and Jurassic Park.

To set a custom background, simply download one of these images onto a USB device, plug it into your Xbox One, launch the new Media Player app, select the picture, then press the menu button and select “Set as background.”

Enjoy!
