Many popular video games release with a vast array of accessibility options and features, whereas others offer very few? Why is that? Why do some developers experience more challenges to making accessible games than others? Through detailed interviews with a variety of game developers I hope to generate a better understanding of the barriers and challenges to making accessible and inclusive games. By identifying those barriers and understanding why they occur, I also draw attention to various avenues through which we might be able to reduce or remove the barriers to developing accessible games.
