Do you have arachnophobia and still want to see what it is like to be a wizard in Hogwarts Legacy? Luckily, wizards and witches are great with magic and can turn your fear into hilarity. Thanks to the arachnophobia mode, all your fears will disappear.

Arachnophobia mode is becoming fairly common in games nowadays with many developers adding the feature to help those with the fear more easily play the games they love. Hogwarts Legacy is one of the many with the feature. Here is how you turn on arachnophobia mode in Hogwarts Legacy.

How to turn on arachnophobia mode in Hogwarts Legacy

If you want to turn on arachnophobia mode in Hogwarts Legacy, you will want to start by going into the game’s menu. Once you launch the game, go into the menu and select settings. This will take you to the in-game settings so you can alter the features of the game.

Select the accessibility menu option which is identified by the symbol that looks like a person in a circle. Scroll down to the bottom of this new menu and you will see the option for arachnophobia mode.

You can turn arachnophobia mode on and off at will from this menu with no fancy wand work required. Keep in mind that it won’t affect your gameplay. This means that all of the spider enemies will still have the same attacks as if they weren’t magically transformed.

How arachnophobia mode works in Hogwarts Legacy

With the arachnophobia mode turned on, you will see spiders as little creatures with roller skates. Their bodies will still slightly resemble that of a bug but be nowhere near what an actual spider looks like. There will be no need to fly away from them.

All of the spiders in the game will be altered by this magical effect crafted by the Portkey Games devs. Even if you are in battle when you turn the mode on, the spiders will instantly transform without the need to reload an area.
