SPIDER-MAN 2 - 30 Easter Eggs, Secrets & Hidden Details

If you do side crimes after Harry becomes agent Venom, he can occasionally come to help you fight similar to wraith

Theres a cool thing I noticed in the campaign I don't know if anyone else picked up on it but it made me smile. When Peter and Miles are on the water tower talking when Miles reveals his suit, after talking for a bit they stand up and Peter says to miles, "Call the play Coach" which is what miles says to Spider-Man in the very first game before they really knew each other. I thought it was very heartwarming.

if you get Miles show up at a crime during the stage when Pete has become a bit "evil", he wont hang around for the hug/point, obviously showing he isnt happy with Pete during that stage of the game

With the EMF side quests, a certain one involves you retrieving a stole plant. After you acquire the plant and head back, Peter will say "Your names not Audrey is it?" A reference to Little Shop of Horrors

Just found an insane detail in the Bebop side mission. After meeting Teo playing the trumpet, Spiderman (his cat) is sitting there with him. Now if you wear the Bodega Cat Suit, Spiderman the cat won't appear in your backpack like he normally does because he's chilling with Teo

One of the spiderbots stuck in my memory. It's the one of Spidergirl. If Peter picks it up he says "I can't tell why but for some reason I love that spiderbot." And as many know Spider Girls real name is Mayday Parker, Peters daughter with MJ. It's a cute detail.

All the original Symbiotes are either shown or hinted at in the game. Venom is obvious, Carnage can be seen at the end of The Flame mission set with Cletus Kasady. Scream is briefly around for a boss fight. Riot, Phage, Agony and Lasher are all the colors of the minion Symbiotes as well: Riot is the Behemoths color, Lasher is the Quick Green ones, Agony is the Long Range Purple ones and Phage is the basic common symbiote enemy.

They already explained in the first game in one of the backpacks that someone tried to come to Spidey with the plushie idea but he couldn't earn money off of it or else he'd exposes secret identity Also the name Crusher Hogan came before Hulk Hogan as crusher was spidey's actual oponent in the backstory of Spider-Man back in Amazing Fantasy #15 in 1962 and the Hulkster didn't start wrestling until 1977 if anything Hogan probably was inspired by Spider-Man. Also those marks on the crusher Hogan aren't based off of New Jack that's just the marks that crusher Hogan has in the comics

The Forever suit mutes your footsteps and makes it so your controller doesn’t vibrate when you walk or run. Like how in the movies (and I assume the comics) BP walks silently

There's a chance when you're using the bodega cat suit as miles, when you do a finisher the cat will join In hitting the enemy, it's super cute!

One cool detail that I love is how some suits within the game will change the spider arms and wingsuit that Peter Parker uses. The iron spider suit gets its own special arms compared to the default suit and Peter’s civil war suit has different glider that comes out of his backpack which are canonically accurate. It’s a cool detail

The other cat mascot is voiced by Alan Tudyk. Both Nathan and Alan are credited as Additional Voices.

One cool detail which is actually one of my favorites, in the mission "the flames have been lit" when you are a spy as peter. You can actually hear two of kraven's hunter talking about him at the end of a corridor. And they mention how kraven made a kill in wakanda and got in and out undetected. It's so good and kraven earned my respect even further. And further expands on why his hunters really do treat him like a god

Spider-Man(The Cat) also shows up in the final celebration mission when Miles recovers all the historical instruments stolen from the museum. He's got the mask on and is riding on Teo's shoulder.

Regarding the Spiderverse reference, the total amount of spider bots you find are 42 in number. In the spider verse movies, Miles' first ever swing ended up with him crashing into a numbered sign, and the numbers 4 and 2 dropped on the floor next to him. The spider that bit Miles was from Earth 42. When he tried to leave the Spiderverse HQ, he ended up going back to Earth 42. Notice the theme?

Another cool detail - Sandman is established to be weak to water. One of his memory crystals is near a water fountain, and if you get his clones into the water, they instantly disappear! The team also went all-in when it came to thinking of details and recording stuff. Miles and Peter once again talk differently when doing nothing vs being exhausted, different characters will help you out at different points of the story during free-roam, Miles and Peter and Evil Peter all have different dialogues for side missions like the Hunter Blinds/Bases or finding Spider-Bots, etc. etc. etc.. Every faction in the game can also fight each other occasionally - you can find Hunters fighting criminals fighting symbiotes fighting cops and any sorta mix. Not sure about the fire cult, though. There being 42 Spider-Bots is itself a reference to the Spider-Verse movies, with Earth 42 being very important to the plot.

Best one out of the three! Really didn’t want the story to end!! Platinumed It, 100% Story & All Trophy’s. Now waiting on new game plus and hopefully some DLC comes too

In the one of the music museum missions you play as a spider bot going through the museum. There is a large room you go through with various instruments. These instruments react based on where you shoot them. Like the various drums and cymbals on the drum kit play their respective sound. Also, each key on the piano and marimba are programmed to react when walked across. Such a nice detail but can be easily and permanently missed unfortunately so definitely try it out if you can!

When you play as Venom escaping Oscorp tower, one of the cutscenes has blue and red alarms going off in the room Venom is in, with each colour highlighting different sides of him. This is a reference to how Venom was shaded in the old animated series, and there's an unlockable suit for peter that also references this.

Actually have an easter egg for you. Near the bridge on the left side of Astoria there is a mural of Norman Osborn on the side of a building with fire coming out of his mouth and devil horns. This is referencing the Devil's Breath from the first game but also his horns are green and purple, which are obviously a nod to his Green Goblin colors. Plus Goblin has had horns like that in other versions, like Ultimate Spider-Man
