Making a Game For Everyone—Diablo Immortal’s Accessibility Features

news.blizzard.com:

We believe games are for everyone, no matter their ability. This is why the Diablo Immortal team is committed to building a game experience that is accessible to all. We are happy to share an overview of the first round of accessibility features that will be available at the game’s launch. Our initial focus has been on control and chat features to ensure as many players as possible can experience our core gameplay while still being able to form deep social connections. We hope any one or a combination of these features will allow players to tailor their gameplay experience to their needs.

You will be able to play Diablo Immortal with controllers on both mobile devices and on PC. Your controller’s presence should be automatically detected the moment the game is launched. Many controls–including skills, accessing chat, and more–can be remapped from the Controller tab of the Settings menu.

While using a controller, by default, pressing the right arrow on the d-pad will activate a free cursor that will allow you to access and navigate non-gameplay interfaces of the game. The free cursor key bind can also be changed from the Controller tab of the Settings menu.

To provide a more comfortable experience on mobile devices, we have added an option to adjust the position of skill buttons. This can be adjusted from the Controls tab of the Settings menu. In the future, we hope to expand on this functionality by allowing for more discrete control over each individual skill button position.
