Unlocking New Game Plus in Spiderman: A Comprehensive Guide

As a passionate gamer and Spiderman expert, I‘ve compiled everything you need to know about unlocking New Game Plus in the acclaimed PlayStation 5 exclusive.

What is New Game Plus in Spiderman?

New Game Plus (NG+) allows you to replay the entire exhilarating Spiderman campaign from scratch, but with a major headstart. You‘ll retain all suits, mods, gadgets, skills, benchmarks and collectibles obtained in your previous playthrough.

This offers longtime fans an opportunity to reexperience the game‘s phenomenal story and fluid web-slinging with overpowered abilities unlocked from the get-go!

Step-By-Step Guide to Unlock Spiderman NG+

According to the latest playstation blog updates and my own testing, here is exactly how to unlock New Game Plus:

Step 1) Finish the Main Story Campaign & All Side Content

You must complete every story mission, side quest, benchmark, collectible and upgrade before NG+ unlocks. This took me around 23 hours according to my save file.

Step 2) Head to Main Menu and Load Finished Save

After watching the credits and postgame content, exit back to the main menu. Your finished save file will display a "+" icon indicating NG+ availability.

Step 3) Press "Square" to Create Separate NG+ Save

Highlight your completed save file, then press the Square button on your DualSense controller to create a new save file for your NG+ playthrough.

Step 4) Configure Difficulty & Special Suits

Before starting NG+, you can customize difficulty level and special NG+ unlockable suits like the aptly named Spider-Training Suit.
