E3 2018: Everything We Learned From Sony's Spider-Man Demo

4. Suit Powers

Tying into earlier talk of the many suits in the game having different abilities, the open-world demo showed the default suit's special power.

By pressing L3 and R3 together, players can trigger a special ability where Spidey produces an extra powerful attack; in the default suit's case it's a 360 degree rapid fire web ability that incapacitates all enemies in a given area, and though Insomniac have remained tight-lipped as to what other abilities could appear, it's fair to say that this one is a good starting point.

Also shown off were the game's special takedowns, where players can trigger an instant takedown of sorts by pressing circle and triangle together. Sound familiar? It's the same combination that triggered a similar move in Batman: Arkham - not that anyone should complain about that, of course.
