Could we be more inclusive with accessibility settings?

Hey there, first off, love the game! It's become one of my favorite games as of late and playing with my friends has been a blast. And the diversity in the characters has made me and my friends feel a lot of inclusivity that we don't normally get in games. But having this much diversity without really taking the time and having the care to put together proper accessibility settings, in my case colorblind settings, that actually work for my form of colorblindness is crazy. I and I'm sure many others who deal with colorblindness on a daily basis would kill to have some proper colorblind settings in Apex Legends! It even effects my ability for teamwork because lush fields and location pings from my teammates take on the same color. I have Deuteranomaly and the colorblind options currently available just... don't account for me. And it really upsets me that a game I love this much and is suppose to be such a diverse modern title doesn't account for colorblindness properly! Love the game but please consider fixing up the colorblind options to properly account for more forms of colorblindness would be greatly appreciated, maybe along the lines of just letting us directly choose the colors of certain things like pings, loot rarities, hit markers and enemy outlines. Thank you for your time!

  • Hey @Izah-kun,

    Thanks for the post! Glad to hear you've generally been enjoying Apex with your friends lately.

    It sounds like you've already explored the current accessibility options, but I did want to leave this here for reference, or just in case anyone else comes across the post that may be unaware.

    This details the various color-blind and other accessibility options currently available, but in the meantime I'm certainly happy to pass along your feedback that it may be more helpful if the options were expanded further, or if you were able to select the colors directly. Thanks again and take care!
