How to use the web wings in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

The web wings are one of the most notable new additions toMarvel’s Spider-Man 2, allowing you to travel through New York at high speeds, especially in locations where swinging isn’t possible.

The web wings are also compulsory for select missions, especially if you’re travelling over large bodies of water with no nearby skyscraper to latch onto with your web.

However, it’s easy to forget how to actually use the web wings in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, so we’ve created this handy step-by-step guide.

What you’ll need

What you’ll need

The short version

Step1

Find a high location

You’ll need to find a high-up location before you activate your web wings, otherwise you’ll just splat on the ground. Either climb up a building, or start swinging.

Step2

Jump into the air

Once you’ve found a high location to embark from, jump into midair. If you’re swinging instead, you can simply let go of your webbing while up in the sky.

Step3

Press triangle on the DualSense controller

While you’re in midair, press triangle on the DualSense controller. This will activate the web wings.

Step4

Use the left analogue stick to navigate Spider-Man

By default, the web wings controls will be inverted by the Y-axis, so moving the analogue stick down will see Spider-Man veer upwards and vice versa. You can remove the inverted controls (or even add inversion for side-to-side movement) by diving into the settings.

Step5

Use wind tunnels to gain momentum

The wing suit is dependent on momentum, so you’ll start falling to the ground when gliding too far. An easy way to gain momentum is to use wind tunnels. Keep an eye out for gusts of wind, as when approached, you’ll notice glow-up rings appear. Glide through them and then you’ll pick up speed while using the web wings to keep you up in the air for longer.

Troubleshooting

Yes, both Peter and Miles can use the web wings, no matter which suit you’re wearing.

Yes you can! Click on the Options button on the DualSense then go to Settings > Controls > Invert Web Wings Control and then pick your desired setup.
