Accessibility

We're an accessibility organization, so our website should be easy for everyone to use. Here's our commitment, how to change the site to suit you, and how to tell us when something gets in your way.

Our commitment

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. WCAG is the international standard for accessible websites. We test with an external auditor and with disabled gamers from our community, using keyboards, screen readers (NVDA and VoiceOver), switches and eye-gaze.

Last audit: Not yet audited. An external WCAG 2.2 AA audit is booked before launch.
