Welcome to the Firstport Accessible Gaming Hub! It's great to have you here.
The Accessible Gaming Hub is all about showing our disabled community different ways to get into the fun world of video games and get the best experience out of it. Whether you are new to gaming, someone looking to get back into the hobby, or a seasoned gamer looking for a better experience, the Accessible Gaming Hub has got you covered.
Video game developers are always looking at new ways they can make their games more inclusive and accessible for everyone no matter their ability. This includes things like accessible and customisable controllers so people with physical disabilities can play with more ease, games with subtitles and sound visualisations for our Deaf/hard of hearing community, and games with adjustable speed and difficulty levels. It’s all about removing barriers so anyone can enjoy video games.
Here at the Accessible Gaming Hub, you’ll find awesome reviews thanks to brilliant members of our disability community who want to support others to get gaming. You'll find more information about how to set up, how you can connect with other keen gamers online, and some advice about accessible controllers and games.
If you are a support person for a member of our disability community, you can also find some helpful advice around gaming safety and support.
There’s a massive online gaming community out there, so gaming is a great way to connect with people all over the world. It’s a hobby that brings people together regardless of disability, so check out the Hub and get involved.
