EDIT: Unfortunately due to power outages from storms in the UK, the stream has been postponed until next week. February 25th, Friday, at 11am PST, 2pm EST, 7pm GMT, the performance will be at https://www.twitch.tv/sightlesskombat

With help from several community members, and project founder /u/SightlessKombat, we've written Audio Description scripts for many of the pivotal cutscenes and gameplay sequences for God of War (2018). Recorded and mixed versions of these scripts are currently published on YouTube, but this Friday we will be streaming a joint effort performance and playthrough of the game! If you're interested in learning how games can be more accessible, come join us and ask questions. :)

Here's an example of an AD video that we created for God of War (and which we'll perform on stream!): https://youtu.be/YHb3-He50NY

AD does not, unfortunately, exist in any normal capacity for video games. However, this particular game has received well-deserved praise for its excellent stereo sound design. The voice acting, mixing, music, ambiance, and combat are all extremely high quality. The bulk of the hack-and-slash style gameplay is surprisingly doable for players with low or no vision, despite the lack of any accessibility features intended for blind players. God of War was selected due to our shared love of the game as a whole.

**What will this performance include?** Myself (a sighted streamer) and /u/SightlessKombat (a streamer with no sight at all) will be performing the God of War AD narration that we've scripted together, live, while playing the game. He and I will switch off who is narrating, and who is playing, by way of a system which allows us to simultaneously control the game on PS5.

**Where and when can I watch?** The playthrough will start at 11am PST, 7pm GMT, this Friday (February 18th) on Sightless Kombat's Twitch channel. Link: https://www.twitch.tv/sightlesskombat

The stream will last for 3 hours, and is a recurring weekly event which will be at the same time every Friday!
