"PlayAbility is a very useful program because with its facial and voice recognition AI, it allows me to configure multiple actions in games that I couldn't use before. It's also very practical to be able to configure it on an Xbox controller, as Windows recognizes this type of peripheral perfectly (being from Microsoft). But that's not all, it allows you to configure keyboard keys, individually and combined, configure keyboard for Xbox buttons, Xbox buttons to activate keyboard keys, etc. And it still has more features that I don't master yet and that escape any assessment I can make. As I said, PlayAbility is a very complete program that opens up the universe of video games (on PC and consoles, it's important to remember) to people with disabilities, like me."

Common Questions

The essentials before you start: hardware, games, consoles, and pricing.

Do I need special hardware?

Not always. PlayAbility currently requires a Windows 10 or 11 PC. You need a webcam only for face or head tracking and a microphone only for voice commands. You can also keep using compatible keyboards, mice, gamepads and adaptive devices. Console setups may require Remote Play or a compatible adapter.

Does it work with all games?

PlayAbility is designed for PC games and applications that accept standard controller, keyboard or mouse input, including titles distributed through Steam, Epic Games and Xbox Game Pass. Choose an output type the game supports and test the profile with that title. Individual games, launchers or input modes can still have compatibility or configuration restrictions.

Does it work on consoles?

PlayAbility runs on Windows and connects through supported adapters or Remote Play. See the recommended setup for PlayStation, Xbox, or Nintendo Switch 1 & 2.

Is PlayAbility Adaptive Software free?

Yes. The Free Edition includes all current control methods and one editable profile, with no subscription, credit card or time limit. An account and internet connection are required. Upgrade to Pro when you want to keep several editable profiles instead of replacing your Free profile.
