One of the best aspects of modern gaming is accessibility features which depending on the game and developer, will have a variety of options that cater for skill levels and disabilities, andHogwarts Legacyis no exception.
One such feature is to help those who suffer from arachnophobia aka a fear of spiders. A mode like this is featured in the survival game fromObsidian Entertainment,Grounded. InGrounded, it turns spiders into unintimidating blobs.

WhereasHogwarts Legacyturns spiders into mechanical-looking creatures on rollerskates. “This game made me realise my arachnophobia is funny,”saidRedditor WetSockk00. “I underestimated the spiders and ended up having to put it on arachnophobia mode but I’m not complaining, just look at this dude on skates.”
“The skates are a nod to the movies and books when Ron’s boggart is a giant spider, he visualises it to be on skates to banish it,” replied Lucifer2695. It is cool that the game has all these Easter eggs for Harry Potter lovers.
“I don’t have arachnophobia but I turned on the setting anyway just to check it out and had to turn it off because seeing those spiders creeped me out,” exclaimed Crkhd3.
“I didn’t even know there was an arachnophobia mode - that’s good of them to add that for people who have a phobia of spiders,” said Froggymushroomfrog.
