Microsoft is updating its Xbox thumbstick toppers for people with disabilities, enhancing their design and adding a new shape. The program, launched in 2024, aims to improve gaming accessibility.
At Microsoft's Ability Summit, the company is updating its Xbox thumbstick toppers for people with disabilities. In addition to enhancing the overall design of the 3D-printable accessories, the company is adding a seventh shape to the lineup.
Microsoft launched its thumbstick topper accessibility program in 2024, and today's announcement marks its first upgrade. Based on feedback from the disability community, the new design is said to be more durable and less prone to coming off during especially intense gameplay.
As for that new shape, say hello to the "goal post" topper. (Living up to its name, it looks a bit like something an NFL place kicker would aim for.) It joins the six other shapes: plate, dome, narrow stick, "pull" (a deep, bowl-shaped surface), sphere, and a custom base for adding moldable materials like clay or plastic.
