What does accessibility actually look like when it’s part of the design from day one, not an afterthought? 🎮

We talked to Niall White, Research Lead for Gaming & Accessibility at Logitech G , about how that’s changing the way gaming products get made.

PAX West Seattle just ended, and we’re still processing this: $36,699 raised. 💜

From trying adaptive controllers to asking questions and learning why accessibility in gaming matters, you showed up in a huge way.

We connected with incredible gamers, developers, brands, and communities who share one goal: making sure everyone can play.

Thank you to everyone who supported us this weekend. This is just the beginning. 🎮

🎮 On the Floor: Gamescom 2026 — Episode 1 | Straptic Games
We had the chance to share our space at Jugendforum NRW with Straptic and experience the technology up close. Their wearable translates events happening in a game into spatial haptic feedback, using precise vibrations on the wrist to make information something you can feel, not just see or hear.

That matters for accessibility. Haptic cues can create another way for players to receive information, including when visual or audio cues aren’t accessible to them.

For us, gamescom isn’t only about seeing what’s new. It’s about finding ideas that can help remove barriers and create more ways to play.

And we found plenty worth sharing.

More from gamescom coming soon.

Meet AbleGamers Brazil AbleGamers Brasil and here’s how you can help.

They’re pushing two bills through the Brazilian congress, PL/SP 484/2024 and PL 2299/2023, that would make adapted gaming equipment and games tax-exempt for people with disabilities.

Right now, adaptive gaming equipment is taxed like any other controller. That same technology is necessary for many players with disabilities and is an additional cost beyond what nondisabled players require.

This is exactly the kind of change that makes adapted gaming accessible at scale, not just for the people who can already afford it.

Every signature adds pressure. Let’s help our partners get this across the finish line. 🎮🧡
