Gaming agency Fantasyexpo, the Akademia Mu0142odych Gu0142uchych Foundation and Sevenet S.A have collaborated to launch esports sign language dictionary #GamingWithoutBarriers. The initiative looks to provide sign language opportunities for esports broadcasts, with the Polish Esports League’s CS:GO finals, commencing today (4th December) and live through 6th December, being the first competition to implement the programme.

As a result, the CS: GO finals will be broadcast live with the support of Polish sign language interpreters. In total three translators will be used to accompany the commentators in the studio to help explain the course of the action whilst also expressing ‘live, emotional casts’, according to the release.
