Well, we weren't expecting this. After an ongoing barrage of requests from avid Spidey fans, it seems Insomniac Games has come through at last. The costume from the original Spider-Man movies, or the Raimi suit as it's known, has finally been added to Marvel's Spider-Man on PS4 with the latest patch.
After downloading patch 1.13, which is about 4GB, you'll be able to swing around in the fan favourite suit. This comes as some surprise, as it was only last week that Insomniac appeared to imply the suit wouldn't be coming to the game at all, despite many fans asking for it. We suppose this comes as a very nice Christmas present to all those who have been hankering for the outfit in the beloved web-slinging PS4 exclusive.
Will you be taking this new suit for a test run in Marvel's Spider-Man? Are you glad to see it finally included in the game? Swing by the comments below.

I now have the pizza delivery song from the Spider-Man 2 game in my head.
wait the patch is 4GB, so what else is it adding because no way a Suit requires a 4GB download
What the heck?!
@FullbringIchigo The last DLC is out tomorrow, so it's probably adding support for that. This is just a fun extra
@Quintumply yeah that makes sense
Finally! Game on!!
Personally, I prefer the ASM2 suit but this one's pretty decent.
I don't think Insomniac games caved, rather I think it was Marvel that caved
I'm assuming world peace can now begin and the internet can shut down for good?
@Giygas_95 one would hope, but nah, there will be other puddlegates and stupid, insignificant things for people to get offended about instead of what really matters.
Is it safe to say the real-time, PS4 generated Raimi suited Spider-Man character model looks better than the 2002 CG model movie Spider-Man?
Wish they didn't do this just because of the stupid kids that 'demanded' the suit to be in the game...
I hope this was planned, and not a cave-in. There are already enough people who think they can just whine and whine like a child throwing a tantrum in a supermarket aisle and they'll get what they want... no need to encourage it further.
@Turismo4GT that's a great point, it's amazing how far in game graphics have come.
@Turismo4GT Ah, so it's still business as usual then. Got it!
Love that they're still adding stuff like this, but have to admit there are lots of suits I would much rather have than the Raimi one, don't have much nostalgia for that one unfortunately. Would love the Ben Reilly Spider-Man suit and the one from the original 70s Spider-Man films!
@SegaBlueSky I'm looking for the 1970's Japanese Spider-Man series suit myself. I watched a clip of the show the other day, that ish was hilarious. I suppose they have to hold back something for the sequels, though.
Nice, it will be great if insomniac can add pizza delivery mission like spider-man 2 though lol.
What was the big fuss over? It looks almost identical to a quarter of the already available in game skins.
Finally!! Know what I'm playing my 3rd play through in 🙌🏻
If only they did this a few weeks ago, then this could have been GOTY instead of God of War 😉
I have been reading some of the posts about this suite. A lot of nasty posts from people. I'm surprised that the suite made it into the game. I hope those that made nasty posts don't feel like they "won".
They should have charged $9.99 for the suit and told people to "put their money were their mouth is".
Neat that Insomniac added it in, despite people calling the other suits trash because they weren't the Raimi suit.
Well, people have what they asked for, albeit the asking wasn't always done in the nicest fashion.
It looks so good.
I'm happy for all the rational people who wanted this but kinda wishing they hadn't gave into the people who were demanding it and acting like children towards them after getting this great Spider-Man game. Now it's time for all of them to start complaining that they want the Webb/Garfield Amazing Spider-Man suit.
@funkyflounder83
They can still ask. Nothing wrong with that.
You know the Internet makes it look like everyone is a dk but that's not true right?
@JJ2 totally agree bud not everyone is a dk but some of the things I saw people tweeting at the developers was ridiculous. The sense of entitlement is unreal. Also I have no problem with people asking with their favourite suit but giving into those specific nasty people leaves a bad taste.
@FullbringIchigo that is what i was thinking, 1 costume can't surely be 4gb?
Props and respects aren’t enough to Insomniac. They went through hell for this. Such an amazing developer. ❤️
@KingSimba i'm surprised for their honesty to not charge for all of these costumes that are in the game (and can be unlocked normally by progressing thru the game, imagine that?), they are very generous and that goes a long way these days.
I hope all those that have Insomniac a lot of stick are man enough to apologize to them but I know they won't.
I'm a fan of the suit, I even hoped it would be in before the game released, but the drama around it was beyond ridiculous.
I'm honestly expecting a caveat here. Like there's a twist if you use it.
@AdamNovice that never happens.
all they do is just forget that they ever mentioned it.
anyway the internet is the internet. like JJ2 said not everyone is a mean person but the internet for sure gives them power to be that.
Well I'm glad they listened to their "small minority" (According to some people here) of fans that ask for this suit, I knew this wasn't hard at all and now everyone is happy
They clearly made this decision a while back. Modeling a suit like this isn't something that can be whipped up overnight.
It was probably always planned as a Christmas surprise, but brats had to whine and beg.
@GKO900 They would have had this suit planned for weeks. But idiots had to be idiots. And yes it was still the minority.
@AdamNovice They could have said something like look forward to the game back in that response and since when people are idiots for asking for their favorite things in their favorite game
I can't tell if this was a cute surprise or a long form troll. But I respect it.
@GKO900 When they come across as entitled and keep spamming Insomniac's Twitter feed.
@Turismo4GT absolutely! Everybody should know Japanese Supaidaman!

@get2sammyb Great, a handful of very vocal morons were bratty enough to get their demands fulfilled... Merry Christmas
No Spider-Cop suit? No deal Insomniac!!! I kid, I love everything about this game. Just waiting for a small sale on the dlc to load it up again after smashing the new game + ultimate mode.
@GKO900
It was planned from the beginning they confirmed.
I agree though if they just hinted a surprise it would have been much better pr. Not excusing abuses but many fans were genuinely requesting when insomniac said themselves they are listening.
@DerMeister yup, like wearing the Raimi suit automatically turns you into crying, blubbering, whiny emo Peter Parker a la Spider-Man 3.
The internet would love that 🤣
I don't understand it, it's not even a good suit.
Power to the people ✊
@AdamNovice
Insomniac themselves said it was a 'highly requested suit'.
Note they also said many times they are listening which seems to welcome feedback while of course there are idiots on the Internet (mute or block button can be of use rather than arguing).
I see a lot of media blaming gamers but it shouldn't be always a right or wrong situation. Most gamers are good people. Everyone should be happy of the outcome rather than feed hate that feeds hate.
@huyi apparently it also contained bug fixes for Silver Lining DLC, which was released today
as for the suit it looks amazing, i posted some pics of it in the Screenshot Thread
@SegaBlueSky I played in the Scarlet Spider suit until the Infinity Wars suit was available (I don't know how they call it). The Clone Saga might not have been the highest point in Spider-Man's publication history, but that still is what was available in newsstands in my early teens...
As a Spider-Man fan since I was born (and I was born in the neon 1980s, kids), I don't really care for this suit, or those movies for that matter. They were good for what they were at their own time, but ever since the MCU kicked off, Raimi's movies became simply dated. Fingers-crossed for a sequel based on the classic black suit!
i have not dot the rami spider-suit yet or the dlc's because i'm not online on ps4 yet i will be soon the rami spider-suit looks awesome as it did in spider-man in 2001
@makoshichime i want the classic black spider-suit as well
@Quintumply same lol
@Quintumply awesome one quin
@nookie_egg there are new spidersuit's since the raimi suit like the spider-verse suit and the cyborg spider-suit
