Forza Motorsport introduces innovative accessibility features for visually impaired players.

TL;DR Summary
Forza Motorsport will feature audio cues to allow blind or low-vision players to race around tracks. Turn 10 Studios worked with accessibility consultant and blind gamer Brandon Cole to develop the Blind Driving Assists (BDA) system, which uses beeps and boops to indicate turns, track limits, and other cues. The system also includes haptic feedback and voiceovers. Forza Motorsport will have a range of accessibility features, including screen narration, one-touch driving, and text-to-speech and speech-to-text features. The game is set to release later this year on Xbox Series X/S consoles, PC, and Xbox Cloud Gaming.
