If you’re not a fan of the white spider logo costume you’ve probably seen Spidey rock in most of the pre-release videos and images of Marvel’s Spider-Man for PS4, then never fear. Not only does the game feature more than 20 alternate suits (check out our full list of suits coming soon), but it also features the webslinger’s popular Tony Stark-created suit featured in recent big screen films like Captain America: Civil War and Spider-Man: Homecoming.
The Stark Suit–as it’s referred to in the game–is actually one of the first ones you’ll have access to. That’s a huge plus, as not only is this suit one of the most aesthetically awesome costumes Spidey’s worn in either the comics or in movies, it also unlocks what is probably one of the most useful powers in the game: Spider-Bro. Initiating Spider-Bro releases a small drone that flies around Spider-Man and zaps enemies with electricity, rendering them temporarily paralyzed and making them easy pickings. The effect lasts for a decent amount of time as well, meaning Spider-Bro can easily become your favorite crowd control move in the entire game.
Unlocking the Stark Suit is pretty straightforward. If you’ve just started the game and are looking at a mainly empty list of boxes in your suits menu, the Stark Suit is actually eighth on the list. You’ll need to be level 10 to get the chance to unlock it, but once you’re there, you’ll also need a few of the tokens you’ve likely already been collecting around New York–specifically, one base token, one research token, and three crime tokens.
And the high tech Stark Suit isn’t the only one from the Homecoming movie featured in the game. If you recall, the Peter Parker in that movie started his crime fighting wearing a simple red hoodie and blue pants, and that simple homemade suit can also eventually be unlocked and worn in this PS4 Spidey title. This suit doesn’t have a specific power that it comes with, and will probably take you a while to achieve, as you’ll need to find every backpack hidden throughout the game.
