An enthusiastic fan of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 has come up with an amusing suggestion for a Spider-Ham suit that could be included in Insomniac's upcoming sequel. While the game's developers have yet to reveal all the available suits for players to choose from, this creative idea could make for a fun addition to the game.
For many fans of the original Marvel's Spider-Man game, selecting which suit to wear was one of the most enjoyable aspects of the experience. With a wide range of different options to choose from, each suit offered a unique perspective on Peter Parker's character. It's heartening to know that this feature will continue to play an important role in the sequel, especially since it has already been confirmed that the symbiote suit will be featured in the game. Given its iconic status in the Spider-Man universe, it only makes sense to include it at some point in the franchise.
SuperDaltron, a Redditor, came up with a humorous mockup design that depicts how Spider-Ham could look if he were to be included in Marvel's Spider-Man 2. The design is different from the one seen in Spider-Man: Into The Spiderverse, where the character was initially introduced and played by John Mulaney. Unlike the cartoony design in the movie, Spider-Ham in SuperDaltron's design has regular Spider-Man proportions. The user did not overlook any detail, including proposing a new suit ability for Spider-Ham's costume in Marvel's Spider-Man 2. The "Looney Hammer" suit ability would enable Spider-Ham to hit the ground with his hammer, producing a shockwave that would knock enemies away. This unique ability would undoubtedly be entertaining to watch in action.
Spider-Ham could be an excellent addition to the game as a joke costume, similar to the underwear suit in the original game. Some users suggested taking the idea a step further, such as incorporating cartoon sound effects instead of normal combat sounds. There is already a suit mod for Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales that does exactly that, and it might be interesting to make it an official feature.
Insomniac has a wealth of options for suits in Marvel's Spider-Man 2, and fans are eager to see the studio's creative take on them. While playing as Tobey Maguire or Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man suits is undoubtedly exciting, it's time to explore the more obscure costumes from Spidey's long history. A suit like Nicholas Hammond's 1977 Spider-Man or the whimsical Spider-Ham design would be a fantastic tribute to the franchise, showcasing Insomniac's willingness to take risks and embrace the character's rich legacy. Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is set for release in Fall 2023 exclusively on the PS5.
