Re: Monumental news out of GDC
As others have said best not to get too excited.. all it is is a way in, it isn't a guarantee that any developers will actually use the functionality.
But having said that, it is simple functionality for developers to use. So if you know of any games that would be mechanically suited to blind accessibility it's worth having a chat with the developers, as once there are existing games on the console that use the functionality it'll be easier for other developers to just have a play, see how it works for themselves and copy what they've done.
The dream would be for it to be implemented at engine level, so that for example every game made using Unity or Unreal just mostly works with it by default, in the same way as native iOS development. But that's further down the line, for that too the first step is to have some nicely working examples of live games on the xbox store that have implemented it.
