The accessibility options God of War Ragnarok they will be very deep
SIE Santa Monica Studio would have taken seriously the commitment to accessibility promoted by PlayStation Studios, as a new gameplay lets us see that there will be accessibility options that will affect the gameplay.
In case you don’t know, it is common for studios in games, keeping in mind people with some impediment to enjoy them, include visual or auditory options to distinguish some gameplay elements.
It is normal to think that God of War Ragnarok will also include similar options, but there will also be some that will have a direct impact on mechanics and gameplay.
In case you missed it: Details of the plot have already begun to leak God of War Ragnarok.
According to Mila Pavlin, head of user experience design at SIE Santa Monica (via Game Informer), the developers focused on 4 key aspects: vision, hearing, motor skills and cognitive understanding.
As an example, it can be seen in the preview gameplay that, depending on the option that the player chooses, some bells will move for a longer time, causing the sound they emit to last longer, which can help people who have difficulty distinguishing said sound.
The study will also use the DualSense, because in the gameplay we can see that the player will be able to map the touch panel to carry out commands or functions within the game, such as making Kratos turn quickly, push with the shield, apply contrast and even unleash Kratos’ Spartan Rage ability, depending on the user’s preference.
We will share all the information when SIE Santa Monica delves into the subject of accessibility.
