Microsoft just scored a touchdown for accessibility with their latest Xbox thumbstick topper, and it’s shaped like a goal post! This new addition is designed for gamers with disabilities, making it easier and more comfortable to play.
Unveiled at Microsoft’s Ability Summit, this topper is part of an update to their 3D-printable thumbstick accessory line. The goal post design joins six other shapes, including the plate, dome, and a custom base for adding materials like clay. It’s all about making gaming more inclusive and fun for everyone. Plus, the new design is more durable, so it won’t pop off during those intense gaming sessions. If you’re curious about more Xbox updates, check out how Xbox is rebranding to keep fans engaged.
The updated toppers, including our new favorite goal post, will hit the Xbox Design Lab on May 21, coinciding with Global Accessibility Awareness Day. They’re free to download, but you’ll need a 3D printer to bring them to life. To keep your gaming gear sharp, you might also want to snag some discounted Xbox controllers during the Lenovo sale.
Keep an eye out for more exciting updates from Microsoft and other gaming giants as they continue to innovate for accessibility and fun!
