How to get custom xbox/sea of thieves profile picture?

  • Well hello there!

    So I see alot of ppl with a custom pfp, but I can only choose from a list within xbox on my pc.
    How do you get a custom profilepicture?

    Right now I also have this dumb sea of thieves pfp, but really want a picture of the charachter of my name (Tarfful, a charachter from Star Wars).

    Anyone know how to do this?

    Thank you!

  • @tarfful6878 Ahoy matey!

    The easiest way to do this is via the Xbox app on PC! You can choose a custom avatar through the app.

  • @musicmee No... thats not what i meant
    i want to upload my own pfp, not a xbox pfp

    It seems they've actually changed this (I believe they restricted it during the early part of the pandemic to help alleviate network congestion issues). However, you can do it through the Xbox Console Companion app still.

  • The Xbox App for your phone does it too.

  • It used to be easier. They definitely changed it at some point. Let us know if it works, please.

    they have to make it easier to change your pfp, why not just allow us to do on pc

  • @tarfful6878 pretty sure you were able to just on the Xbox app there. It only reintroduced on the mobile app recently since they reworked the whole app. Lots of features gad to slowly be reintroduced. Still waiting for the Xbox store to come back to the app with code redeeming and what not.

  • @tarfful6878 But where in the xbox app i mean i want to do it too for myself and i dont know where cause i only can upload downloaded pictures and xbox pictures.
