Background

Logo: We start with the logo above, then we see a health warning (reading "See important health and safety warnings in the Settings menu"), and finally, on a light-blue wave background similar to the PS3, the PS4 logo in the upper left corner. In the middle is text telling you to press the PS Button (reading "Welcome Back to PlayStation®" and "Press the PS button to use the controller.").

Variant: When logging out of your account, it skips the health warning and goes directly to this screen, but without the text "Welcome Back to PlayStation®".

Technique: The wavy-like object moving in the background, similar to the background of the PlayStation 3's home screen.

Music/Sounds: A new-age synth choir that continues to play until you load up an application or a disc. The log-out variant only has the PS menu music.

Availability: Current and very common. Seen when you turn on a PS4.


 * Slowly being phased out following the launch of the PlayStation 5 in 2020 and Sony stopping producing all of the PlayStation 4 models (with the exception to the 500GB Slim model) in Japan since January 2021, though so far support is expected to last until at least the end of 2023 (and firmware updates for many years after).
