Acessibilidade em jogos para pessoas com deficiência auditiva: uma revisão sistemática

Abstract

This work has the objective of conducting a systematic review of accessibility practices currently implemented in the digital games industry, as well as the challenges faced by disabled players, with a particular focus on hearing-impaired players. In developing this work, the methodological planning resulted in 18 relevant articles, all of which were read and analyzed to answer the research questions. This analysis showed that guidelines such as the personalization of subtitles and the use of visual feedback instead of sound signals were highlighted as effective. The results indicate that while there has been progress in the inclusion of players with disabilities, there are still significant gaps when it comes to the consistency and effectiveness of accessibility practices. This study contributes to the field by providing a solid foundation for future improvements in hearing accessibility in digital games and suggesting paths for future research.
