Steam's gonna start listing 'adjustable difficulty,' 'save anytime,' and other accessibility features right on a game's store page soon

Pretty much any modern release will run you through a set of accessibility options the first time you launch it, and those options usually seem pretty expansive, at least to me. You can find a full list of accessibility options devs will be able to choose from below. VisualAdjustable Text Size : Players can adjust text size. (In-game text, menu text, character dialog text, subtitle text): Players can adjust text size. (In-game text, menu text, character dialog text, subtitle text) Subtitle Options : Players have options to customize the display of subtitles for all spoken content and essential audio information. πŸ–ŠοΈοΈπŸ€–
