Xbox avatars are getting a wheelchair option following suggestion from Twitter

Another fan asked if they considered started a petition, but Microsoft’s Phil Spencer jumped in and said that wasn’t necessary since the brand is already working on the option.

He tweeted this:

@goldennike11 @SeamusBlackley No petition needed, we hear you. This is something that we’ve already looked at, not far off.

An Xbox developer even gave the fans a sneak peek at what the new players will look like:

The tweets drew a positive response from Xbox fans, praising the employees for including the wheelchair avatars:

No word on when the new avatars will roll out, so to speak. Xbox is the major gaming platform to be inclusive because Playstation and Nintendo don’t offer wheelchair options on its avatars. Also, Microsoft joins a growing list of brands, like Lego and Tommy Hilfiger, in becoming inclusive to disabilities.
