Logitech G Adaptive Gaming Kit for Access controller arrives in January, offering even more customization options and configurability.
As we prepare to introduce the Access controller to the accessibility community on December 6, today we’re pleased to share a closer look at its development, including a first glimpse of its accessible packaging. Step behind the scenes as our hardware and UI designers, alongside user research leads, discuss their collaboration with accessibility organizations on a highly customizable PS5 controller kit designed to help gamers with disabilities play more comfortably and for longer periods:

Since development began five years ago, we evolved the Access controller’s design through half a dozen design concepts and prototypes, engaging in countless insightful discussions with accessibility experts and community playtesters with disabilities. Our goal was to create an innovative design that’s adaptable to the needs of a wide array of players.
For us, the accessible experience starts from the moment you start unboxing the product. Designed to be openable with one hand, the Access controller’s packaging features convenient loops that can be pulled from the left or right side, and additional loops on the inside to help you open the boxes and slide the controller out easily. The interior features slots that conveniently organize the various kit components – including 19 interchangeable button caps and 3 stick caps – in a single layer for easy identification and access.
