Disgusting, filthy creatures of nightmare, spiders are the worst. Thankfully, if you hate the horrible beasts as much as we do, you can freely explore the darkest crevices of Dragon Age: The Veilguard. BioWare has confirmed that, for the first time in the series, the eight-legged, fantasy-foe staple will not be featured.
Interestingly, we learned this happy news after the game's lack of an arachnophobia mode was noted among its listed accessibility features (thanks, IGN). On Reddit, one of the game's community managers confirmed: «No arachnophobia mode because there are no spiders!»
Dragon Age is actually quite renowned for its explicitly nightmarish spiders, which are larger and more horribly hairy than most depicted in games. IGN wonders whether the creepy spider with man-hands shown in a 2020 behind-the-scenes trailer has been cut; we won't have too much longer to find out. Dragon Age: The Veilguard skitters onto PS5 on 31st October.
Just the important stuff
Back, foul beast!
