Apple on Monday seeded the first beta of tvOS 18.2 to developers for testing, and the upcoming update includes hidden code-level references to new screen savers coming soon, according to MacRumors contributor Aaron Perris.
Snoopy
The code shows there will be four categories of screen savers added to the Apple TV, including Snoopy, TV and Movies, Music, and Soundscapes.
TV and Movies
Music
Soundscapes
The new screen savers will likely become visible in a later tvOS 18.2 beta version. Apple's website indicates that the Snoopy and TV and Movies options are "coming late 2024," and the Music and Soundscapes options will likely be available then too. We expect tvOS 18.2 to be released to the public in December, in line with the late 2024 timeframe.
At least some of the new screen saver options, including Snoopy, will require a second-generation Apple TV 4K or newer, according to Apple.
Existing screen saver categories on the Apple TV include Aerials and Memories, along with a Portraits option with clocks added in tvOS 18.0.

I don’t want any more useless categories. I just want to pick any screensavers I like. How hard is this? A simple list of all available screensavers (there are hundreds by now), with checkboxes to select them. That’s it.
But nope, here are a few categories to select one from, with a bunch of screensavers in it that I have no interest in. Great.
