A familiar-looking suit will be available in Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales. As a pre-order early unlock, players can don the unmistakably stylish Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Suit pulled right from the Oscar-winning movie for their travels through Marvel’s New York. And not only that, the suit mod associated with the suit also brings with it some iconic pop up words and card bursts!
Check out the brand new in-game footage in the video above, with an introduction from Justin K. Thomas, the Production Designer for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.
“The most exciting part of the process was bringing Miles Morales to life on the big screen for the first time,” Thomas explains in the video. “We wanted to give him his own unique style of animation...and now it’s exciting to see that Insomniac Games and PlayStation, in collaboration with Marvel Games, created its own take on the character in Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales. The way Insomniac faithfully brought the iconic suit into the game is visually stunning and remarkable.”
The Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse suit joins the previously announced T.R.A.C.K. Suit for the game, both which will be available for players who pre-order the Standard or Ultimate Edition from the PlayStation store.

Spider-Man: Miles Morales has an extra treat for fans: a giant nod to Into the Spider-Verse. Marvel, Insomniac and Sony have revealed that you can use Miles’ black-and-red Spider-Verse suit in the upcoming PS5 and PS4 game. It’s not just a skin on top of the standard model, either. It mimics the flamboyant animation style from the movie, right down to the comic book “pow!” visuals and purposefully choppy frame rate.
You can disable the low frame rate (it’s just a suit mod) if you feel it hampers gameplay, Insomniac’s James Stevenson said.
Insomniac had fun with suits in the original Spider-Man game, including one costume reminiscent of the comic books and ‘60s TV series. However, this appears to be a more dramatic example of what the company can do with its characters.
The suit is unlockable on launch day for anyone who pre-orders Miles Morales ahead of its November 12th debut. And before you ask: Insomniac noted that you can still earn the suit in-game, so you’re not stuck with conventional suits if you’re willing to put in the time and effort.

Worlds collide in the new Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales trailer. Insomniac Games unveiled the inclusion of the iconic Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse suit. And it’s so much more than just a player skin. Check out the entire new gameplay video here!
It would be so easy to just slap together a skin that resembles Miles Morales from the 2018 CG film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. The outrageously fun movie was the first time that the masses in cinemas came into contact with Miles Morales.
No doubt a big reason that the follow-up game to the Spider-Man game from the same year features Miles Morales as the main playable character. So, how fitting then that both incarnations of Miles come together.
Experience the rise of Miles Morales as the new hero masters incredible, explosive new powers to become his own Spider-Man.
The Spider-Man suit from ‘Into the Spider-Verse’ is confirmed for the upcoming PlayStation 5 launch title Spider-Man: Miles Morales. Not only that, but donning the suit transforms the animation even. Similar to the movie, the Spider-Verse suit changes Miles’ animation, making it look like a mix between stop-motion and hand-drawn comic.
It’s really super slick to witness and a brilliant addition to the game. Today’s new gameplay video then shows the new suit in action in a lengthy video. Keen eyes will notice that when you fight enemies in the Spider-Verse suit, you even get speech bubbles straight from the comics that emphasize hits.
It’s this attention to detail and love for the Spider-Man universe that has us eagerly awaiting November 12th. The date when Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales launches concurrently on the new PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. While it’s nice that owners of a PS4 can also play the game, it’s the next-gen version that truly shines. Crisp 4K resolutions at 60fps are only possible on the PS5 after all.
