Ubisoft announced today that they've started implementing the tags from the Accessible Games Initiative. The AGI aims to provide a consistent set of tags to use on websites and storefronts to help players find games with accessibility features they need. caniplaythat.com/2026/05/21/u...

It's Global Accessibility Awareness Day! An excellent time to reflect on what unintentional barriers may exist in your game. -Is important information communicated with both visuals and audio? -Are text and icons large and high contrast? -Do your controls avoid mashing and long holds? #GAAD

Another HUGE announcement for Global Accessibilty Awarness Day. I am a part of the brand new PlayStation Studios Accessibility Community Council! I, along with 15 other accessibility folks, will help PlayStation Studios make more accessible games!

I created the Accessible Gaming Wiki, where people can create and share pages surrounding all aspects of game accessibility. This is a huge passion project of mine because while there’s a ton of info out there, much of it is fragmented or lost to time. More info 👇 www.accessiblegaming.wiki #GAAD

Bang on time for #GAAD! We are announcing the introduction of the Accessible Games Initiative's tags on our Store pages. So players can get the information they need where it matters the most: before purchase! #GameAccessibility #a11y news.ubisoft.com/en-gb/articl...

For Global Accessibility Awareness Day, today I take a look at a free Steam game that offers a fascinating, interactive look at how and why game Accessibility is so important: https://youtu.be/VpUc51mPO1I?si=8cqE4heICDv1K_pg

I MADE A GAME! It's a 2d6 Rougelike tabletop game called "Where's my Glasses?" where your genius little brother stole your glasses and you have to escape his science lab to get them back! Just in time for #GAAD you can buy it today for $3! dungeonsanddisableds.com/glasses

Today is GAAD - Global Accessibility Awareness Day! ♿ If you're still new to games accessibility, or haven't thought about it much beyond subtitles, here are a few of my favourite resources for starting out. Talks, games, media and communities. Accessibili-buddies, feel free to add your faves too!

Our Barrier Breaker is awarded to studios going the extra mile with an accessibility feature that's unique or improved so much it should inspire others. For 2025, we award it to @compulsiongames.bsky.social, for the Guiding Strand in South of Midnight! caniplaythat.com/2026/05/21/b...

Our AbilityPoints Diamond Award goes to the game that made the biggest accessibility impact overall in 2025. We chose id Software's DOOM: The Dark Ages! (@doom.com) Giving players more choice in their challenge and many other features made Hell accessible to all! caniplaythat.com/2026/05/21/a...

Today is Global Accessibility Awareness Day. I'll share links to others work later today, but I'm starting with a little self promo. I've published weekly video game accessibility articles (Opinions, features, and reviews) for the past six years! access-ability.uk

Over a year ago, I spoke with @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social about Dreams on a Pillow for a piece that was killed before it could be published. I am honored that he was willing to take the time to speak with me again in spite of that and tell me about his beautiful homeland: kotaku.com/upcoming-ste...

The position that billionaires “provide” for workers is misaligned. Billionaires -take from- workers. Labor creates; capital extracts. If billionaires disappeared tomorrow workers would self-organize and continue to produce. If workers all vanished, billionaires would have no labor value to steal.

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced releases on July 9, and Ubisoft is once again quick to share accessibility details in a spotlight. It's a huge list with new, returning, and improved features that will help many players experience this remake. caniplaythat.com/2026/05/07/u...

EXCLUSIVE! Ubisoft just revealed an official Accessibility Spotlight for Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced—and there’s a lot to like (screen narration, presets, QTE skips, HUD tweaks, more). I break down what’s confirmed and more!

As of today, I’m a published author! Find out more in the quoted thread and at accessibilityethics.org #DigitalAccessibilityEthics

For folks interested in being invited to events, are you playing / streaming the games in the franchise you're interested in, and seeking out PR contacts or creator / community teams at the company? If so, what's been the response - or are there other barriers you're experiencing in getting access?

Today's the deadline if you want to reach out about being included in this year's Access-Ability Summer Showcase. If you're working on a video game aiming for disabled player accessibility, please reach out at [email protected]

Do anyone have good examples of game studios that have a web page with good information about the accessibility in their game? ❤️ I know Whitethorn games does really well with information about the accessibility in their games on their web page, but would love to see others as well!
