Marvel’s Spider-Manis widely known for its diverse breadth of suit skins, whether it features eclectic original designs, deep-cut comic book references, or iconic suits from live-action and animation. Between the phantasmic Spirit Spider suit, the sleeveless sweatshirt Scarlet Spider suit, andthe Hybrid suit fromSpider-Man: No Way Home, there is a suit to meet any fan’s costume preference.
But while they are all interesting additions toMarvel’s Spider-Man’s costume catalog, it can easily be forgotten that not all of them actually exist withinMarvel’s Spider-Man’s individual canon. Insomniac Games has produced a separate continuity inMarvel’s Spider-Manthat offers them the leniency to iterate upon characters and other significant features. In terms of which costumes Peter Parker has worn in his eight years of being Spider-Man, fans are only privy to a select number of them. Recently, a dedicated fan has determined which suits belong toMarvel’s Spider-Man’s universe.

Redditor u/choyjay has compiled a definitive list of all the suits inMarvel’s Spider-Manthat could be considered canonical in Insomniac’s universe, Earth-1048. These suits include the Wrestler suit, as seen on a poster for Peter’s wrestling match against Crusher Hogan in Peter’s apartment; Peter’s Classic suit, both repaired and damaged; an ESU suit where he wears collegiate apparel with the mask on; the Advanced suit definitive ofMarvel’s Spider-Man; the Dark suit, as a gift from Felicia Hardy; Undies, which is self-explanatory; the Anti-Ock suit; andthe pre-order bonus Velocity Suit.
Going all out on inclusion, choyjay even includes two iterations of the Wrestler suit — one with the standard eyes patched onto the mask, as is seen on the wearable suit cosmetic, as well as one with updated mask lenses similar to his actual mask as seen on the poster. The Spider-Punk suit is added, despite being inspired by its appearance in comics, because J. Jonah Jameson remarks upon it in his podcast, which confirms that it is at least acknowledged in the canon.
Further, choyjay admits that the Armored Advanced suit is not officially canon, but that it could represent Peter’s idea to integrate Sable tech into his Advanced suit’s design. Some of these inclusions may be debatable, but they still have firm enough connections toMarvel’s Spider-Man’s lore that they make worthy additions.
These are only a handful of the suits players have access to between the base game and the three DLCs. But there are still many otherseminal suits that Insomniac could include inMarvel’s Spider-Man 2, and it is just as likely that Insomniac will have more original designs to add to it as well.
Marvel’s Spider-Manis available now on PS4 and PS5.
