Rapper Ice-T Complains of Nightmares Caused by Giant Spider in Resident Evil Requiem

Renowned American musician and actor Ice-T has admitted that the spider boss encounter in the new Resident Evil 9 is causing him significant psychological strain. He joins a growing chorus of players with arachnophobia who have voiced their intense dread over this particular chapter of the game.

Grammy Award-winning rapper Ice-T is finding his survival efforts in Resident Evil Requiem to be quite the ordeal. The artist took to social media to share his unfiltered reaction to the horror title, posting an emotional message: “Resident Evil 9… Fuck that spider.”

While the performer had previously commended the game for capturing the nostalgic essence of the original 1996 title, he confessed that the experience is becoming increasingly difficult to handle. “It has me stressed the F out… You know it’s bad when you start having dreams about the shit!” he noted.​

This terrifying sequence takes place deep within the ruins of Raccoon City, where protagonist Leon Kennedy stumbles into a zone completely smothered in thick webbing. According to reports, this boss fight has triggered a wave of complaints from players suffering from arachnophobia. Online forums are currently buzzing with gamers seeking “cheese” strategies to bypass the encounter, while some have admitted to playing without their glasses or on small handheld screens just to minimize the visual impact of the creature.​

Resident Evil Requiem currently lacks an official accessibility toggle for those with a fear of spiders. However, the PC modding community has already stepped in to provide a solution, releasing a mod that replaces the grotesque multi-legged monstrosity with a smiling Thomas the Tank Engine model.

Ice-T is a well-known gaming enthusiast with a long history of playing the Call of Duty and Fallout series. He has also lent his signature voice to various iconic franchises, appearing in Gears of War 3, GTA: San Andreas, and Borderlands 3. His virtual experience fighting off monsters may soon prove useful in his cinematic career; the rapper is currently filming the Australian action-comedy “Zombie Plane” alongside Chuck Norris and Vanilla Ice.​
