HTC Vive Launches Anniversary Backgrounds and Desktop Wallpapers

Today is a celebration of all things HTC Vive related. If you hadn’t seen by now the consumer headset is one year old and there’s been a bunch of promotions for consumers. As a freebie, four anniversary backgrounds and desktop wallpapers have been released to jazz up your PC.

For Vive Day four background images for the SteamVR compositor are now available, changing the picture inside SteamVR for something a little more interesting. HTC Vive has also enlisted the talents of independent artist Android Jones for the image seen below.

If you fancy adding a Vive Day themed logo to your desktop then there are also four to choose from, supporting both PC and Mac.

All the pictures can be found on the Vive blog, along with instructions on how to set them up if you’re not too sure.

Other promotions for today only include a £100 GBP/$100 USD discount off the HTC Vive itself for new customers. Or if you already own the device, head on over to Viveport to bag a free copy of Arcade Saga, Vive Studio’s action game.

The Viveport Subscription Service as also launched, providing a new way to navigate the hundreds of apps on the platform. It’s $6.99 a month with users able to choose five titles from an ever-growing library of curated content. As an introductory offer new users also get a one month free trial.

VRFocus will continue its coverage of HTC Vive, reporting back with the latest updates.
