Accessibility Issue – Screen Reader and Menu Narration Not Working in EA FC

Hello,
I apologize if this is not the right place to post, as I couldn’t find a forum related to accessibility or an appropriate tag for this topic, and I also apologize for not realizing that the text wasn't sent.

I’ve been a FIFA player since 2007 and have always really enjoyed the game. However, I’m currently facing a serious issue, which also affects other people. Since FIFA 23, and now also in EA FC games, I have not been able to interact with the game.

I am blind, and to navigate the game menus I use the OCR feature of the NVDA screen reader. The problem is that the game’s anti-cheat system blocks this kind of usage, preventing me from reading the screen content.

The alternative — menu narration — does not provide a good navigation experience. It reads very few elements of the game and, on top of that, it is not available in my country.

If possible, I would like to suggest some solutions:

1. Allow NVDA to continue reading the game content. NVDA is a free screen reader and can be downloaded easily for testing and implementation.
2. Expand the capabilities of EA FC’s menu narration and make it available outside the United States. I live in Brazil and currently do not have access to this feature.
3. Ideally, it would be even better to have menu narration support in Portuguese and other languages.

I’m available to help with whatever is needed and to clarify any questions.

Thank you in advance for your attention.

Sincerely,
Diego
