Today’s State of Play brought a new gameplay trailer for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. We got glimpses of new villains, new costumes, new skills, and quick swaps between our two heroes.
The map will be almost double in size, as Queens and Brooklyn are being added to the game. With more space comes faster traversal, as the web wings will help our heroes zip, fly, and acrobat through the city at even faster speeds than before.
We also got glimpses of Kraven, Venom, and someone that looked suspiciously like Mysterio throughout the trailer. Peter’s combat looks fast and aggressive, as the Symbiote abilities and Spider-Arms took center stage in his slice of the footage. Miles had some new electrifying Venom abilities on display as well.
Insomniac also announced that the game will ship with 65 suits, which “include new original designs and fan favorites from films and comics, players will have an expansive wardrobe of costumes to equip in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. We’re also delighted to announce Suit Styles, an all-new feature that unlocks alternate color shaders for some suits, which provide over 200 ways for you to outfit your Spider-hero!”
Insomniac also detailed the bonuses for the Deluxe Edition of the game, as gamers will receive 10 exclusive suits, photo mode items, and 2 Skill Points to kickstart their adventure. The suits can be found below, with descriptions from the Playstation Blog.
