Here’s how to get your PlayStation 2023 wrap-up

Every year, PlayStation lets you take a look back at your year of gaming on its platform. You’ll get stats like number of hours played, top played games, trophies earned, and more. While you are free to get your stats right now, they will continue to be updated until January 12, 2024, so you can get the full picture of your year. What’s new this time around is the addition of digital cards you can view and share with your friends that highlight some of your most impressive stats, as well as a free avatar and PlayStation Stars digital collectible. Here’s how to get yours today.

To get your own personalized PlayStation wrap-up, simply head to Sony’s wrapup web page and sign in to your PlayStation Network account. If you would prefer, you can also opt to use this link to have Sony email you a breakdown directly. In either case, you may have to be patient when trying to access your stats since it seems like the servers are having trouble keeping up with the number of people attempting to access it at once.

When you do make it in, you will see a breakdown of which games you spent the most time playing, how many total hours you played this year, how many total games you played, which was the first game you played in 2023, and what percentage of games were PS4 versus PS5. But perhaps most interesting is your “Gaming Style.” This gives you a label based on what genre of games you played most. Your total Trophies earned, as well as a breakdown of how many of each type, is another highlight.

These stats are always fun to take a look at when the year is wrapping up to reflect on all your gaming accomplishments on PlayStation and they are fun to share and compare with your friends.

PS5 themes: Can you customize your homescreen?

The PlayStation  launched without many features that we loved from the PS4 . Over the years, a few have come back, but what about themes? These could be earned, downloaded, or purchased, and some even came included with certain games that gave your home screen a new look and background soundtrack related to different games or concepts. This made customizing your home screen that much more fun and personal. However, is this feature on the PS5? Here's whether or not you can put custom themes on your new console or change the background.
Does the PS5 have themes?

No, the PS5 does not have any themes. Instead, whenever you highlight a game or app on your home screen, the background will change to art related to that game, as well as show more information on it. While far from ideal, it is the closest we are likely to get to the themes we had on our PS4.
Can you change the background on a PS5?
Again, due to the PS5 dynamically changing the background depending on what you're currently looking at, there's no way to alter your background at this time. Since the background is constantly changing, even if you had a custom image, it would always be changing as you cycled through games. There are a few other ways you can customize your PS5, however, unless Sony gives us the option with an update, there's no way to set a theme on your PS5.

Best PlayStation deals: PS5, controllers, headsets on sale
PS5 and DualSense art.

The newest generation of consoles has been going through a bit of a change recently, with them now having both a digital-only option and a physical disc option, and the Sony PlayStation 5 is no different. In fact, we've even seen two new versions, the Slim and the Pro, further making things a little bit more complicated. Because of that, there aren't a ton of great deals on PS5 consoles right now, since the market is still settling, but we have found a few great renewed offers that are worth looking at.

That said, if the options below don't quite do it for you, be sure to check out these gaming console deals instead, and if you already have a PS5, then do check out these PS5 game deals to help buff up your library.

PS6: everything we know about the PlayStation 6 so far

It sounds like we're going to learn more about a next-generation PlayStation sooner rather than later.

In early 2024, Sony Senior Vice President Naomi Matsuoka told Bloomberg the following: "Looking ahead, PS5 will enter the latter stage of its life cycle." While she didn't outright say that a PlayStation 6 is in the works, we can assume that the company is already looking ahead at its next console.
