With four remappable front-facing buttons, an additional shoulder and trigger button on the back, and an Xbox thumbstick, the Xbox Adaptive Joystick can be operated single-handedly, and includes a threaded insert allowing it to be mounted to articulated supports or tripods.
The joystick comes in packaging that’s designed to be both accessible and sustainable, similar to packaging Microsoft introduced with its Adaptive Controller. And alongside today’s availability announcement, Microsoft’s Packaging and Content Team published a new design guide for creating accessible packaging that includes best practices and strategies to ensure it’s inclusive. The days of frustrating plastic clamshell packaging may soon be entirely behind us.
