Finally Got My Hands on a PS5 Console

\\n

 

\\n

These consoles to remain hard to get, so I ended up purchasing a returned model at my local gaming store.

\\n

Happy to say it is indeed true, the screen reader now works in Australia.

\\n

Initial setup I needed sighted assistance, and also to enable the screen reader within Settings/Accessibility (still trying to find out if there is a controller shortcut to turn the screen reader on or off).

\\n

Navigating the screens of the PS5 itself is very straightforward.

\\n

Stay tuned for more notes, and a dive in to a bit of game play.
