Microsoft is expanding its accessibility efforts with a new program for evaluating Xbox and PC games. The program was announced alongside updates to the Xbox accessibility guidelines that were released in early 2020.

Developers now have the option to send Microsoft their Xbox or PC title and have it analyzed and validated against the recommendations provided in the xags. The Xbox accessibility guidelines are now updated to include clearer language, additional context, and implementation examples.

Game test reports will include feedback from players with disabilities, as well as links to information on inclusive design, relevant nonprofits, and accessibility experts.
