Sony lists every single accessibility feature coming to The Last of Us Part I

The Last of Us Part I, the remake of the 2013 video game classic, is set to launch in just one week. The team at Naughty Dog have gone into in-depth details on the game’s extensive list of accessibility options. While we already knew that the game would include audio descriptions for its cutscenes, the full list of features has now been revealed.

Taking to the PlayStation Blog, Gillen McAllister, the Senior Specialist for Content Communications at Sony Interactive Entertainment said “With The Last of Us Part I releasing next week, September 2, Naughty Dog is excited to share a comprehensive overview of the game’s accessibility features. The studio has taken the features established in The Last of Us Part II as a baseline, and then evolved these options even further.”

The full list of accessibility options is far too extensive to list here, however, some of the most interesting ones includes the ability for players to feel the game’s dialogue as haptic feedback through the dualsense, with game director Matthew Gallant saying: “Another [accessibility feature], which started as a prototype but ended up being really successful during playtesting is a feature that plays dialogue through the PS5 DualSense controller as haptic feedback. That way a deaf player can feel the way a line is delivered, can feel the emphasis, along with the subtitles to give some sense of how that line is delivered.”

The full list of options can be found HERE, and ranges from Presets to Alternate Controls to Magnification and Visual Aids; Motion Sickness assistance; Navigation and Traversal help; Text-to-Speech and Audio Cues; Combat Accessibility; Game Difficulty and so much more.

With the video games industry being as big and expansive as it is, it is encouraging to see studios such as Naughty Dog ensuring that as many people as possible can play their games.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
