If there's one thing Ubisoft doesn't get enough credit for, it's accessibility options in its games. Not everyone can play video games in the same way due to a wide range of circumstances, and the publisher often does an admirable job of letting players tweak its titles to best suit their needs. Next up for Ubisoft is Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, and it too will feature a load of options in a bid to make the experience as approachable as possible.
To kick things off, Breakpoint will be the first Ubisoft game in which you can completely remap each and every input on your controller, including the sticks. On top of that, you've got optional text-to-speech, extensive colourblind settings, adjustable subtitles, a fully customisable HUD, auto-run and auto-throttle options, a range of auto aim options, a number of difficulty levels, and more. It's impressive stuff, and you can get all the details on the official blog.
Do you appreciate games that offer so many options? Do you usually make use of any of these features? Get some recon done in the comments section below.

Kudos to Ubi for getting this done.
impressive range of options, but the re-map controller configuration didn't actually work that well in my experience - i spent 20 minutes just trying to change R1/R2 and L1/L2 round, in the end i had to give up and do it through the console settings.
Well the Beta had every option but to invert the camera while flying drones/helicopters! You could invert the pitch controls, but not the camera in flight. Frustrating.
Fortunately I don't have to use many of the accessibility options but I do love the extensive customisation of the HUD. Sometimes games have text or minimaps that feel a little too small for some people who sit a fair distance from the TV, so being able to tailor it to suit your own personal needs is fantastic.
@MattyHammo I had to get used to it in end but, yes, very frustrating. I'm hoping that's patched by the time I buy the game in a year's time.
Great that they have them but for me to much monetization so ill pass.
Seems a lot of effort for a game seemingly no-one wants to play.
Every game should have this type in my opinion, good work Ubi.
Cant complain about their Accessibility Options, UBI do a real good job there. But on the other hand the news about Ghost Recon Breakpoint's excessive microtransactions are starting to trickle out and it aint any good news...
