Trivia[]
- The bone spider, along with the jolly llama, were previously the only mobs in Minecraft Earth that cannot be obtained in any type of tappables.
- The biome category of the journal revealed that bone spiders spawned in dark forests.
- According to the artist that designed it, it was meant to look like it had a skeleton pattern on its body, rather than actually being made out of bones.[1]
- However, bone spiders also had the ability to shoot bone shards at players, implying that they may have been actually skeletal in some way.

Initially I tried a full skeleton design, but ultimately landed on something that looks more like a skeleton pattern on the spider's body." - Art Director: Brad Shuber
