If you don’t want to swing around the game with the traditional Spider-Man suit for Peter Parker or Miles Morales in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, you don’t have to, as the game features a whopping 65 suits to use! Alongside this a ton of gameplay details have also surfaced online.

Thanks to various hands-on previews of the game now being shared by content creators worldwide, we have a ton of info for the upcoming Sony PS5 exclusive.

In terms of suits, it’s been mentioned that the symbiote suit is hypersensitive to sound, and this translates to it being “felt” by the player through the DualSense’s haptic feedback. Thankfully, the symbiote is alternative costume for Spidey, so this means you can use its powers even when using one of the other suits (if you somehow want the look of another suit but want the symbiote powers).

Another new addition to the game is being able to parry, which can be done by pressing L1 on the controller.
