“…There are various initiatives to create games accessible for people with visual impairments. Likewise, others that seek to develop accessible games for those with motor [9,15,27], hearing [36] and cognitive [42] disabilities. Previous work surveyed some of these eforts [62].…”

“…Previous work has also explored game design for groups with diferent motor abilities [9,15]. In Last Tank Rolling [15], one wheelchair-user and one able-bodied player collaborate in a war scenario. The frst player controls a war tank with the movement of their wheelchair and the second controls a soldier using full body gestures.…”

“…It has previously been argued that assuming an explicit asymmetry in gameplay could be a way to cater for diferent players and their preferences [11,16]. Asymmetry has previously been used in research for the design of mixed-ability games, although the focus was not the use of asymmetry -in aforementioned research [15,17,18]. Notably, in Last Tank Rolling [15], the movement of the wheelchair is metaphorically and physically linked with the control of a virtual war tank, which is tougher and more powerful, but slower than the foot soldier controlled by the second player.…”

In this example, each role is designed according to the abilities of each player, turning what is normally portrayed as a limitation (the use of a wheelchair) as an empowering element and a valuable contribution.…”

The landscape of digital games is segregated by player ability. For example, sighted players have a multitude of highly visual games at their disposal, while blind players may choose from a variety of audio games. Attempts at improving cross-ability access to any of those are often limited in the experience they provide, or disregard multiplayer experiences. We explore ability-based asymmetric roles as a design approach to create engaging and challenging mixedability play. Our team designed and developed two collaborative testbed games exploring asymmetric interdependent roles. In a remote study with 13 mixed-visual-ability pairs we assessed how roles afected perceptions of engagement, competence, and autonomy, using a mixed-methods approach. The games provided an engaging and challenging experience, in which diferences in visual

Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) afford new forms of work and leisure. While affordable and effective VR and AR headsets are now available, neither technology has achieved widespread user adoption. However, we predict continual technological advances and cost reductions are likely to lead to wider diffusion in society. Bridging the chasm from the early adopters to the early majority will require careful consideration of the needs of a more casual and diverse user population. In particular, it is desirable to minimise the exclusion of potential users based on their unique needs and maximise the inclusion of users in these novel immersive experiences. Ensuring equitable access to the emerging metaverse further reinforces the need to consider the diverse needs of users. We refer to this objective of maximising the accessibility and enjoyment potential of users of VR, AR and the metaverse as Inclusive Immersion. This paper reviews the research and commercial landscape seeking to address the accessibility needs of users in VR and AR. The survey provides the basis for a synthesis of the emerging strategies for maximising the inclusiveness of VR and AR applications. Finally, we identify several unaddressed accessibility challenges requiring further research attention. Our paper consolidates disparate efforts related to promoting accessible VR and AR and delivers directions for advancing research in this area.
