Marvel’s Spider-Man 2: 10 Tips & Tricks The Game Doesn’t Tell You

10. Unlock Wall Thrash As Soon As You Can

One of the showpiece moments in the Marvel's Spider-Man 2 gameplay reveal came early on, where a symbiote-suited Peter Parker lays into a Kraven thug who's pinned against the wall. Similar in a way to the beatdown mechanic from the Batman: Arkham games, this move deals high damage to a chosen target and also provides a nice flourish in combat. Weirdly, though, it's a skill that you can miss if you aren't paying close attention.

Said skill, called "Wall Thrash", is located in the Peter and Miles section of the skills menu, and is unlocked after advancing through the combat section of the tree. It's easy to miss, though, particularly if you're spending more time upgrading Peter and Miles' specific skills or because you've put more attention into the traversal and stealth section of the shared tree.

In any case, make sure not to steam through the story and side missions without realising you missed this skill.
