Touch Screen Control

Dear Gaming community,

I wanted to talk about a little bit of myself. I am a person who has a disability and it is really difficult to find console games with touch screen controls in the gaming world. I tried the different types of controls out there but they are a big setup to do for one game also it doesn't work with some fast pace games. This is because I have difficulty with controlling my own hands. I used a hat pointer to control an iPad, to do my work, and play games. When I want a new game I don't know if the game requires you to click two buttons at once which is very difficult for me. This makes me so angry when I know that the game is coming to iPad next year, and my friends are already have the game for 2 years this means they will move on to the next game before I have a chance to join in. I always feel like I'm 2 years back from everybody else something 5 years.

The games that I currently play a lot are Minecraft Bedrock and Call of Duty Mobile. These games all have their PC and console counterparts like Minecraft Java and Call of Duty Warzone but I wasn’t able to play until they created mobile, touch screen versions. When I was little I wanted to play Minecraft Java but the game doesn't have touch screen controls. This was so frustrating to hear there were no touch screen controls by default. So I start looking for mods for the game but could not find one. Now that Bedrovk and Java are being released together on game pass, I hope they will include touch screen controls.

My purpose of this post is to identify a need amongst Xbox gamers for more accessible touch screen controls across your games. Touch controls in xcloud are a step in the right direction and is very much appreciated by me. Ideally, I would like to see more games with touchscreen functionality and maybe even a way to tie single button presses to multiple functions within games.

Thanks!

:)
