Spider-Man Players Are Celebrating the Raimi Trilogy's Birthday With In-Game Screenshots
Director Sam Raimi's Spider-Man released 19 years ago today, with a star-studded cast including Tobey Maguire, William Dafoe, Kirsten Dunst, and James Franco in leading roles. The 2002 Spider-Man movie may have inspired the modern MCU, and may even become canon in the upcoming Spider-Man: No Way Home. Today, Spider-Man fans are remembering the iconic 2002 movie with the PlayStation Marvel's Spider-Man title.
Marvel's Spider-Man released in 2018 with a number of impressive suits, including the homemade suit, Stark suit, the Infinity War suit, and even the 2099 Spider-Man suit. However, the game was missing the perfect suit to pay homage to the original big-screen movie. The Raimi suit was added later on as a free DLC and is extremely accurate to the movies, even lacking web-shooters, as Spider-Man shot webs out of his wrists in the trilogy.
Now, fans are sharing their in-game screenshots honoring the 19-year-old movie. Some fans are recreating the epic 2002 movie posters with Spider-Man rocking the Raimi suit in the game. Other fans are posting the Raimi suit Spider-Man in cool poses, sharing stories of their experience with the trilogy, and expressing their gratitude that the Raimi suit was added to the title.
Following the Raimi suit being released in Marvel's Spider-Man, other iconic suits were also added to the game. Spider-Man's Iron Spider suit that Peter receives from Iron Man in Avengers Infinity War was released as DLC. Fans who purchased the Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition also got to unlock the "Amazing Suit", inspired by the Amazing Spider-Man movies starring Andrew Garfield.
Spider-Man has worn a whole slew of costumes throughout his time as a superhero. Fans endlessly debate which of his many suits are the definitive best, but there will never be a consensus. However, many fans agree that the Raimi suit is among the best Spider-Man movie suits. The combination of the simplicity of the red and blue design, and the boldness of the silver webbing has made the Raimi suit one of the most recognizable Spidey suits to date.
Although Marvel's Spider-Man 2 has not been officially announced, Spider-Man: Miles Morales sets up the story to continue. Marvel's Spider-Man 2 may feature both Peter Parker and Miles Morales, and fans are expecting a heavy focus on the unlockable suits. Although not likely, this time next year, players may be sharing screenshots in Marvel's Spider-Man 2 for the 20th anniversary of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man.
Marvel's Spider-Man is available on PS4 and PS5.
