Insomniac Games has announced an exciting update for Marvel's Spider-Man 2, bringing new cosmetic options and technical improvements. The game now features outfits inspired by the recent MCU film Spider-Man: Brand New Day and the upcoming fighting game Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls.

These new costumes were revealed via social media by Insomniac Games, coinciding with the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day and the anticipation for Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls, which is set to launch on August 6th. The update also includes support for Enhanced PSSR (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution) upscaling on the PlayStation 5 Pro, a technology designed by Sony to enhance 4K visuals using AI without compromising performance. Additionally, a Power Saver mode has been implemented for the game.

While the new suits have been added, player reception on forums such as Reddit indicates a mixed response, with some fans finding the new costumes to be overly cartoonish. Despite this, the update represents a significant addition to the game's content and technical features.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is currently available, with Spider-Man: Brand New Day also released in theaters.
