More Accessible Video Games Coming Soon

There is more good news for gamers: many major video game companies are joining forces to make video games more accessible, allowing more people to play and enjoy them.

The companies are creating special labels known as accessibility tags, which you will see in game stores and on game information pages.

What do these tags indicate? They inform you of the accessibility features a game offers. For example, a tag might indicate whether the game has subtitles, while another might show if the text size can be adjusted. Tags will also indicate if menus can be read aloud.

These tags are invaluable, as they allow players with disabilities to easily see what a game offers, helping them choose games they can play.

Game makers have collaborated with individuals who have disabilities, which helped them determine which tags to use. They are starting with some essential features and plan to add even more tags in the future. This is a significant step towards making gaming more inclusive.
