Valve just dropped this update on Steam, and it’s kinda wild. Now you can fish through games based on how accessible they are. Yeah, you read that right!
So, here’s the scoop — in their blog, Valve’s going all out with this info spree about what games need for accessibility. You can now, like, search for stuff like “Is the game difficulty adjustable?” or “Can you tweak text size?” Also, are menus actually narrated? (Why do I find that oddly satisfying? No idea.)
And get this, they’ve slapped this info right on store pages! It’s like they wrote, “Check us out, we’re making life simpler for those hunting for games with the right support.”
Oh, and Valve didn’t just pull this out of thin air. They collected a ton of feedback from both developers and players with disabilities. Turns out over 5,000 games have jumped on this bandwagon, sharing the deets about their accessibility features. I’m guessing more are joining the party every day.
This info is sprinkled ALL over the store. So you can dive in to find games with those neat features—filter ’em out or zero in on what you need. 🤞
