Sony’s first accessibility controller has a lot of great features, and a few crucial shortcomings.
It’s supported by robust accessibility software, rather than acting as a switch hub, like the XAC.
There are positives and negatives to this.
The choice of attachments is thoughtfully designed to provide enough options for experimentation and guidance.
It will be a struggle for gamers who lack the physical strength to press regular resistance buttons.
Instead there are workaround options.
The Access Controller configuration wizard is simple and easy to follow.
Game developers should take notice and include these advanced button-remapping features in future titles.
Even if you use two Access Controllers, you still require a DualSense to reach the touchpad for swiping.
No fuss, just plug in and play.
It allows disabled gamers the chance to experience PlayStation games without unnecessary barriers.
