Xbox continues with its commitment that video games should be safe, inclusive and accessible to all. This is why we made sure that Xbox Adaptive Controller is available upon request. Also, all areas of the stand will be accessible to wheelchairs. We will have readily identifiable American Sign Language (ASL), British Sign Language (BSL) and German Sign Language (DGS) interpreters, as well as “support staff”, to help players of all levels.
We are also pleased to announce that Xbox is an official “gamescom goes green” partner and that we have made a voluntary climate contribution to ClimatePartner to offset the CO2 consumption of our presence on the show floor. Similarly, we are committed to waste prevention in the design, presence and dismantling of the Xbox stand itself. This is all part of Xbox’s commitment to our players and the industry to work tirelessly to responsibly reduce our environmental impact.
