<p>As reported by <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2018/5/14/17352050/microsoft-xbox-one-accessibility-controller-leak-rumors">The Verge</a>, Twitter user <a href="https://twitter.com/h0x0d/status/996029444450996224">WalkingCat</a> seemed to be the one to leak the image, which features a controller with two oversized A and B pads, a d-pad, and the standard Xbox button and navigation controls. </p>
<p>A three-light LED seems to suggest that some of the functionality could be customizable, and a USB port on the side might make programming relatively easy for users.</p>
<p>Microsoft has shown an effort to be more inclusive <a href="https://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/300063/Xboxs_revamped_avatars_are_built_with_inclusivity_absolutely_in_mind.php">in the past</a>, with the inclusion of wheelchairs and prosthetics for Xbox Live avatars. </p>
<p>While there’s no information about a release date, it’s been reported that the controller will be revealed during Microsoft’s E3 presentation this year. </p>
