Truant Pixel is responsible for many of the best dynamic themes on PlayStation 4, knocking out good looking backdrops and impressive soundscapes for your console's home menu. It's back again with Solace, a tranquil theme that reminds us more than a little of Death Stranding.
The peaceful dynamic theme sweeps across a gorgeous Icelandic environment, complete with an ambient windswept effect. The result is a wonderfully quiet, almost melancholic atmosphere, but the landscape bears more than a passing resemblance to the rocky grasslands of Kojima's suffering United States. The theme looks great, anyway, and it'll be available for purchase in North America later today for $1.99.
What do you think of Solace? Does this dynamic theme remind you of Death Stranding, or is that just us? Get all contemplative in the comments below.

am i the only person who thinks DeathStranding is greatly overated?
i mean a mailman simulator, tell me honestly would u buy the game if the Kojima name wasnt on it? yeah thats wat i thought, i wouldnt even play this game even if u paid me, it looks so boring n dull, i swear i rather watch my dog taking a poop, gods honest truth, that being said thats only my opinion..
@pimpjuice I'd buy it without Kojima's name. Nice to see someone try something different!
What's the chance of this theme coming to the UK?
I would like a Theme like this but understand the themes in Europe and the UK have to be based on games which is annoying.
Just downloaded this looks awesome
@get2sammyb this 👆
@pimpjuice There's every chance you'll be able to watch a dog take a poop in Death Stranding, if that helps
@get2sammyb Yep, we all still bought MGSV without Kojima's name. 😄
Anyway, it's not as if all MGS fans rushed out to buy Boktai on the GBA and that was Kojima too. There's definitely something striking and intriguing about Death Stranding.
@pimpjuice To simply just say "it looks so boring n dull" is not enough, mate.
It's a blank statement. Like saying you don't like a certain kind of music without elaborating why.
I'm curious to know what types of games do you consider as "exciting" or "not boring" and what exactly about Death Stranding bores you to the point that you wouldn't even accept money to play it?
I always find it kind of ignorant that someone just suffices to the surface level of their opinion. It just doesn't do to crush something without having played it and call it overrated.
Kojima's name obviously attracts audience to a certain extent, but you gotta give it to the man, he's been pushing the industry forward for 30+ years. Credit is given where credit is due.
sorry for the long comment.
We should be able to make our own themes using the SHARE Factory. I'd love some custom made panoramic views from the gorgeous Red Dead Redemption 2.
