Finally, the friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man is now playable in Marvel’s Avengers from Square Enix.
Developed by Crystal Dynamics, Spider-Man is now available as an exclusive Hero for PS4 and PS5. Sadly, he won’t have his own expansion similar to that of Black Panther’s “War for Wakanda”.
With great power comes great responsibility.

However, as well as Spider-Man being playable on PlayStation, we will also be treated to a new four-player Raid featuring Black Panther villain, Klaw. Patch 2.2 will also improve the Shipment system offering additional ways to earn cosmetics, resources and it upgrade your heroes. Furthermore, the Power Level Cap has also been increased from 150 to 175.

Further details on all that patch 2.2 have to offer can be found courtesy of the official press release below. Have you jumped back into Marvel’s Avengers? Let us know across our social media channels. Marvel’s Avengers is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
In addition to the Raid and Hero, the update brings with it several new and improved systems, including:
- Shipments – The Shipments feature provides an entirely new path to earn coveted cosmetics, resources, and other items strictly through gameplay, a highly requested option from the Marvel’s Avengers community. Each Shipment costs 500 Units (the currency earned while playing the game) and pulls from a collection of nearly 250 possible items, with a small chance of rewarding a premium Outfit unavailable via any other means of acquisition. But luck isn’t required to get the Outfit; players will automatically receive it after claiming 100 Shipments. A blog with more information about the Shipments feature is available to read at https://avengers.square-enix-games.com/en-gb/news/earned-cosmetics
- Power-Level Increase – The maximum Power Level achievable has increased from 150 to 175. Acquiring the best gear requires players to complete the game’s toughest challenge: the new four-player Klaw Raid: Discordant Sound on Elite mode, its hardest difficulty level.
- Gear Upgrading – Players can now recycle gear of a higher power level to upgrade their current gear to match the higher-power level of the consumed item, with few exceptions. A blog detailing the gear upgrade system is available at https://avengers.square-enix-games.com/en-gb/news/gear-resources-rework-blog
