Steam now surfaces information on games with accessibility features as we aim to make it easier for players to find games with the support they need. This update comes after gathering valuable feedback from developers as well as players with disabilities, and over 5,000 applications have added details about their accessibility support (with more developers updating their games each day).

This information is surfaced throughout the store to help players more easily find games with these features, or filter down to games that support necessary features.

Q. Where can I find more information on the Accessibility Tags that Steam uses?

A. You can find more information HERE.

Q. Are developers required to add accessibility tags for their games on Steam?

A. It’s not required, but highly recommended because of how much easier it will be for players with accessibility needs to find these games. We’ve worked to make it as easy as possible for developers to indicate these features are available by using feedback to standardize these options as much as possible.

Q. Can developers still add Accessibility information to their app?

A. Yes, they can always update or add information on accessibility for apps at any time through Steamworks.
