If you want to see how UI text size and contrast scaling can be done across a game's UI, up to TRULY HUGE SIZES and high contrast, alongside a whole host of other great options and design, you will struggle to find better than Atomfall. This is well earned, congratulations Rebellion!
The winner for AA Excellence at the 2025 GAConf Accessibility Awards is.. Atomfall!

An enormous amount of work and effort went into this - I’m so incredibly proud and humbled 🖤
To me there are so many puzzle pieces that make up holistic accessibility, and one of those is actually informing players how your game can support them. More accessibility trailers please! 👏

Just how many games there were across all these award categories and the fact a AA category was viable just proves how much work studios are doing for accessibility!
Huge congratulations to everyone, and yes this has made my year a little bit 😅🖤

What an amazing line-up! And these are just the winners. All the games, publishers, studios, people, and their work nominated are worthy of your time (and not just because I was a nominee 😅).

Congrats @rare.co.uk!
Working with these folks was always the best - @topher.io and the crew did great work. Helping game teams with accessibility, I'm often building foundations, but with Rare, it was about helping maintain maximum speed and discovering new places off the map. 💖

Hello hello! For Access Granted, I'm looking to speak with disabled couples on how they play games. How do you and your partner(s) play with your disabilities? What games/accessibility tools are best for you and your partner(s)?
