Fear Not, Blue Prince’s Accessibility Update Is Coming To Switch 2 “Soon”
Blue Prince, developed by Tonda Ross at Dogubomb, has rolled out a significant accessibility update across multiple platforms. Version 1.7 launched on PC late last month, followed by Xbox, PlayStation, and mobile platforms a couple of weeks later. The update introduces several key accessibility features including color assist options, button remapping, and an invert stroll toggle—a movement option for players who prefer higher speeds. Following the initial release, version 1.7.1 hotfix was deployed with additional game fixes and refinements.
Developer Tonda Ross has confirmed that Switch 2 will receive the accessibility update “soon,” though no specific release date has been provided. This commitment demonstrates ongoing support for Nintendo’s latest platform and the game’s expanding multi-platform presence.
The update reflects a growing industry trend toward inclusive game design, with developers prioritizing accessibility features to reach a broader audience. Blue Prince’s phased rollout across major platforms and confirmed Switch 2 support underscores the importance of making games accessible to players with different needs and preferences.
