Comment on Microsoft announces the Proteus Controller, a gamepad for Xbox gamers with disabilities

Microsoft does a lot of bad things, but I got to give it to them here. Their push for accessibility in gaming is definitely a good thing. They’ve been pushing multiple modular controllers in order to allow people with disabilities to play games in a comfortable way. Having the support of a major player in the gaming market like Microsoft will definitely help with support for these products.

Also they made it open source to work on PlayStation, Switch, and PC. Pretty cash money move by Microsoft.

  Did they?
  
  At launch, the Proteus Controller will work with the Xbox Series X / S, Xbox One, and Windows 10 and 11. ByoWave says it won’t support PlayStation 5 or Nintendo Switch, though it’s open to partnering with these platforms.

Also, if you can use it for gaming, you can use it to control a shitload of other assisting technologies.
