After being in the superhero game for so long, the new Spidey in Spider-Man PS4 has come up with a few different ways to customise himself. From suits, to suit mods, to skills, and gadgets, there’s enough room there for this to be your Spidey. But you’ll have to make some budgeting decisions — his suit mods are crafted using the same Tokens as the gadgets and suit unlocks.

You can check out all of the Spider-Man PS4 gadgets here, and all of his skills and abilities here. There’s still a lot more to be announced in terms of his suits and suit abilities, but we’ve put together the announced suits so far.

Those suit abilities will have a big impact on gameplay. The punk rock suit, for example, gives you an electric guitar-slamming ability that knocks all enemies back and puts them on the ground. Fantastic crowd control.

Finding backpacks around the city will get you Backpack Tokens for crafting.

As for the suit mods, in Spider-Man PS4 these function as tweaks for the playstyle you’re going for. Levelling aside, you can think of suit mods as the “RPG” side of the game.

Many increase some of Spidey’s attributes as well as providing some minor effect. With three mods, combined with everything else, you’ll be able to give yourself a boost against a specific enemy type, or assisting stealth gameplay, or creating a nice Focus synergy, or perhaps just levelling up faster.

For a rundown on how you’ll get the various tokens it’ll cost to craft these suit mods in Spider-Man PS4, check out the six different kinds of mission you’ll be doing around Manhattan.
