Unity has introduced a major accessibility feature to its engine, adding native support for system screen readers on macOS and Windows. The update is currently available in the Unity 6000.3.0a5 alpha and will be fully rolled out with Unity 6.3. “Having it in-engine can mean the heavy lifting is done for you, and the cost of time/resources now is significantly lower.” Unity already supported built-in screen readers for Android and iOS with the release of Unity 6.0, but this update extends that capability to Windows Narrator and macOS VoiceOver. Given Unity’s popularity with both indie and major game studios, this change could have a significant impact on accessibility in the industry. These past months have been a big blast for the gaming community with the launch of big games like Resident Evil 7, Nioh, For Honor, and Horizon Zero Dawn.
