It's been a busy day for Dragon Age: Origins with the announcement of a retail expansion release and a delay in its next DLC project. Now BioWare's hit fantasy RPG has gotten a very interesting honor. The PC version has been named as the most accessible game of 2009.

The award from the AbleGames Foundation said that the game was extremely easy for anyone to play, offering features like multiple levels of subtitles, fonts that are friendly to the color blind, several layers of mobility options and more. In naming the game for the award, AbleGames states, "As long as developers like Bioware continue to add accessibility in layers of options that enhance their gaming titles, disabled gamers will continue to be able to play great titles such as Dragon Age: Origins."
