The first is called the “Arachnid Rider,” and looks to be a somewhat anime-inspired take on the iconic superhero’s suit. Much like the base game’s Original Vintage Comic Suit, Spider-Clan Suit, and Into the Spider-Verse suit, it’s rendered in an animated style, featuring mecha-armor and a horned helmet. It seems the outfit was influenced by the long-running tokusatsu franchiseKamen Rider,with the Japanese property’s notorious protagonist sporting armor very similar to the Arachnid Rider suit. It joins the ranks of the game’s more detailed animated outfits, sure to appease anySpider-Manfan looking for a wonderfully over the top take on the superhero’s appearance.
The other suit builds offMarvel’s Spider-Man’sbase outfit, with the Armored Advanced Suit offering a beefier take on the default Advanced Suit. Although the original Advanced Suit is still visible while wearing this variant, it now has the addition of some new high-tech white and black plating as well as an armored faceplate. For those who mostly stuck with the game’s default suit when playingMarvel’sSpider-Man’scampaign, this could be a worthy alternative that shows off the design with a little more flair.
Overall, it seems the game is offering some fun new features for returningMarvel’s Spider-Manplayers. Alongside these two detailed outfits, the game will also be gettingthe Spider-Man suit with gold lenses featured inThe Amazing Spider-Man,making for a strong trifecta of fun new costumes to swing around New York in.
While some fresh suits are a neat addition, players will mostly be talking aboutSpider-Man: Miles Moralesthis holiday season, with the game receiving rave reviews from critics. The story will see Miles Morales return for a brand new adventure, this time starring in the leading role while Peter Parker is off on a business trip. His battle will see him take on a number of iconicSpider-Manfoes, including The Tinkerer, the Roxon Corporation, and The Prowler.
