As games have evolved throughout the years so have their public. The improvement of the technology paved the way for new forms of expression in the medium. With it also came new ways to play. Some requiring higher precision and skills. In midst all this rapid growth, smaller audiences started being pushed aside. People with motor, visual, hearing and cognitive impairment are some of those. Options like controller configuration, closed captions and audio settings play an important role.
