- —Spider, threatening Hunter
Spider is a character in Dead Rising 3: Chaos Rising.
Spider acts as the main antagonist of Chaos Rising. He is responsible for framing Hunter Thibodeaux for a crime he did not commit, successfully landing him in jail. With Hunter gone, Spider works to overthrow Torque's leadership of the Kings of Chaos biker gang, eventually making himself the leader. When Hunter escapes from jail, he confronts Spider, only for Spider to send gang members after him. Spider later shoots Hunter and disposes of his body, believing him to be dead.
Hunter eventually conspires with Torque to retake leadership of the gang. After Spider kills Torque, Hunter's desire for revenge grows stronger, and he goes to meet with Spider at the Quarantine Station. The two duel, and Spider is eventually killed when Hunter shoves a Bowie Knife into his lower jaw after breaking his arm. With Spider dead, Hunter assumes leadership of the Kings of Chaos.
Battle Style[]
- During the final boss fight, Spider immediately charges at Hunter once the cutscene ends.
- All of Spider's melee attacks can stun or knock down Hunter.
- Spider will occasionally grab Hunter. The player must press
to dodge his stomp, otherwise Hunter will take heavy damage. - If Hunter is too far away, Spider will charge at him. After dodging, beware that Spider often charges a second time. If Spider lands a charge successfully, Hunter will drop his equipped item and take a punch.
- If Hunter dodges both charges, Spider becomes vulnerable. The player can press + to perform a follow-up attack, but be careful, as Spider often ends up standing near the fire at the edge of the arena.
- Spider will use his Six Shooter to shoot Hunter if he is far away.
Trivia[]
- In battle, Spider closely resembles Raymond Sullivan and Tyrone King from Dead Rising 2, sharing Sullivan's ability to shoot weapons out of the player's hands and TK's rushing tackle.
- His idle, movement, damage, and charging animations, as well as most of his attacks, are reused from Ronald Jackson, though with slight modifications.
- His battle theme is the second part of Hunter's own battle theme.
- Spider’s taunt during the pre-fight cutscene, "Come into my parlor, bitch!", is a reference to the 1828 poem The Spider and the Fly by Mary Howitt.
