    The Adaptive Controller is officially out TODAY! We couldn’t be more excited for the future of gaming. The launch of this controller proves that the industry has evolved and that gaming will be a welcoming place for players with disabilities.

    Two lovely examples of accessibility in upcoming AAA games, and of letting players know about what kind of accessibility considerations are present too. Madden 19 - Shadow Of The Tomb Raider -

    Madden NFL 19's dedicated accessibility menu. Current settings changes from 18 - controller vibrations can be set to off, normal, and assist. Assist splits off the extra rumbles that were tied to "vision assists" for the previous release.

    Dear , Accessibility isn't something you cover, it is something you create. Progress comes from awareness, awareness comes from the words you write. Please don't underestimate the part you play in pushing the industry forwards. (1/2)
