For seven years, I've had the privilege of reporting on accessibility and the disabled perspective. And now, during my seventh Disability Pride Month in this industry, I'm left wondering if this beat is coming to an end. Read my first @skyboxcritics.com piece here: skyboxcritics.com/2026/07/28/t...

The vanishing art of disability reporting

As the games industry contracts, disability reporting is facing an extinction-level crisis.

The vanishing art of disability reporting skyboxcritics.com/2026/07/28/t... Another powerful article from @supercrip1994.bsky.social that hits really close to home. For me, at least, it helps me realize that I am not alone in this space.

This is a Feedback Form for Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls. The last page is about accessibility feedback. Come on people, let's help them make it better! playstationresearch.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_... #accessibility #MARVELTōkon

I tried Marvel Tokon's beta. I will post a full review when I get the full version. Mobility wise is okay but remapping limits how many key inputs you can use to 15. You can only use 1 key per input, and once you remap 15 you can't remap the rest. #accessibility

Starting today, Scopely is running a weeklong Disability Pride Month campaign in Stumble Guys. The Play for Change campaign benefits SpecialEffect, donating proceeds of each Axel skin purchase to the UK based charity helping physically disabled players. caniplaythat.com/2026/07/23/s...

EVERY facet of accessibility is affected. From the complete removal of all funding of Microsoft's Gaming Accessibility Testing Services, to a question of general website accessibility, a legal requirement for institutions like the EU, it's not just games where disabled individuals may be impacted.

With layoffs at Xbox, sources indicate accessibility efforts have also been affected. What was once a champion of accessibility is now a shell of its former self, unsure if accessibility even has a place at the new Xbox. Read my first report for @aftermath.site here: aftermath.site/xbox-layoffs...

Layoffs Leave The Future Of Xbox’s Award-Winning Accessibility Efforts In Doubt

Former workers say Xbox cuts leave less resources and experts to make sure games are developed, labelled, and tested with accessibility in mind

Let my story today be a reminder of the necessity for disability and accessibility reporting. There is a potential for millions to be impacted by the effects of what I reported. There needs to be trained journalists to cover these topics

Today is a new day, but we are still feeling the sadness and disbelief after yesterday's layoffs. Supporting those affected by them is the most important thing now. They have been working hard for many years, and this is not what they deserve at all.

Thank you to the judges for this year's Impact campaign! Not only did Year 2 cohort members step up to help but we had returning judges @black1976.bsky.social & @radderss.bsky.social help us decide the new cohort too! #impact

The Xbox news we got today is really tough. I have strong feelings about it, but right now we need to stand with and support everyone affected. Other concerns can wait; what matters are the people impacted.

Ubisoft published an Accessibility Spotlight for the game Monopoly: Star Wars Heroes vs. Villains. There are many great features. I love the control customization, no holds, no QTEs, one hand controls and no camera shakes/sways. What feature do you like? news.ubisoft.com/en-gb/articl...

If you truly enjoy games, never share or interact with posts and creators who share leaked content or information. They disrespect and hurt the developers' work and our expectations as players. Those people only care about their own benefit. Zero engagement to them! #gaming
