Fans of Monster Hunter Wilds who aren’t fans of spiders can rejoice with the game’s arachnophobia toggle, which transforms these creepy critters into charming and harmless forms.
Although the full release of Monster Hunter Wilds is still a few months away, excitement is building, fueled by Capcom’s trailers that reveal numerous new features and enhancements waiting for players.
In addition to the Focus Mode and Seikret functionalities shown in the trailers, there is also an accessibility option designed for those with arachnophobia, as noted in a post on X.
This feature alters the visual representation of small, insect-like monsters when selected in the game settings. Instead of their original designs, these creatures will be transformed into much less intimidating forms—specifically, into adorable slimes.

However, don’t let their cute new look fool you. These green blobs remain capable of attacking, and the game’s overall challenge will not be compromised.
This feature proves to be a significant advantage for players seeking a spider-free gaming experience or simply those who prefer less unsettling designs for certain creatures.
Recently, the popularity of arachnophobia toggles has been on the rise in video games. Titles like Hogwarts Legacy and Grounded include such options, with Grounded even allowing players to customize the appearance of spiders by adjusting traits such as the number of legs and the presence of fangs.
Such inclusions are certainly appreciated, considering that many creatures within the Monster Hunter series can be quite terrifying in appearance.
