At least one of the lead characters is from an under-represented group(s).
For non-narrative games where the cast is an ensemble – the total roster of playable characters meets one, or more, of the below targets (best is to meet all the points!):
- A 50-50 gender balance
- 20% belonging to an under-represented ethnic group
- 10% LGBTQ+
- 7% D/deaf and disabled
- Significant amount of characters featuring regional diversity
- Significant amount of characters are from a lower socioeconomic background
You should explain where there are characters that are not frequently portrayed on screen and/or how the game is offering non-stereotypical representation.
Same standard approach works since 2019 for all TV and films.
I heard about exactly same standards in most main studios and during investment talks.
