Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 was one of the great successes of 2023. A critical and commercial success, it is undeniable that it was a sequel worthy of its excellent predecessor, putting Insomniac Games in the place they deserve—as one of the best studios under the Sony umbrella. To prove it, they have decided in their next patch to add a little extra care. Something totally unexpected.
The next patch for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is 1.003.000 and while it doesn’t have major gameplay changes, it will add a lot of content. This patch, which will be released on June 18th, will include eight new suits for our favorite superhero. Four were designed from scratch and four were inspired by his adventures in comics and movies.
The most interesting thing about their new suits is that they haven’t been created by just anyone. Insomniac’s artists haven’t created them. They haven’t even called on other artists to give their vision of the character. They have called on famous cultural figures to design these suits, to provide the character with a distinctive touch.
The fashion designer KidSuper has created the Metro Suit, which gives a more urban and contemporary style. Also from KidSuper, in collaboration with football player Vini Jr., we have the Ginga Suit, a suit inspired by the colors of the Brazilian flag and his passion for football. Along with motorcyclist Lando Norris, KidSuper has created the Fluro Suit, a suit inspired by motorcycling where they emphasize fluorescent colors and the contrast of lines. Together with actress, model, and singer Rina Sawayama, they have designed the Motorchic Suit, a suit where they have emphasized leather to give it a more feminine biker look.
Among the suits that have become iconic, we find some well-known ones. The Last Stand Suit is Spider-Man’s jacket and pants suit, not really a suit in itself, from when he had not fully adopted his character yet. Into The Spider-Verse is the suit from the movie of the same name worn by Peter B. Parker, and Animated Suit is the one worn by Miles Morales. Meanwhile, Uptown Pride Suit is Miles Morales’ suit from Marvel’s Spiderman: Miles Morales that returns for the occasion.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is available for PlayStation 5 and, with all these suits, it’s a good time to return to the game. Or to get it if you haven’t played this great sequel of our beloved arachnid superhero yet.
