00:00 Welcome to Mojo Plays and today we are opening the friendly neighbourhood wardrobe to look
00:12 at the 10 best Spider-Man costumes in video games. For this list we'll be looking at all
00:17 the different variations of the Spider-Man spandex to decide which ones stand out the
00:22 most. Whether they offer enhanced abilities to the player or just a cool fan service we
00:27 are casting our webbing far and wide to get the best selection we can. Did we miss any
00:32 of your favourites? Let us know in the comments below. Before we continue we publish content

00:44 Bodega Cat
00:51 Here is a costume from the 2020 Insomniac game Spider-Man Miles Morales. Let's start
00:57 off strong with a costume that offers nothing substantial to the player and isn't really
01:02 that much of a fan service either. Sure Spider-Cat does exist deep within the lore of the Spider-Man
01:07 comics, but players weren't blowing up reddit asking for Spider-Cat. The Bodega Cat costume
01:13 is just simply hilarious. After completing the game and then doing the Cat's Pyjamas
01:19 side mission you can unlock this costume for Miles which features a hoodie over the classic
01:23 suit and OH YEAH A FREAKING CAT WITH A SPIDER-MAN MASK IN YOUR BACKPACK. The cat jumps in to
01:29 help you fight during finishes but apart from that the costume is just a regular old costume.
01:34 No special abilities, no crazy fan service, just a bunch of cute fun.
01:44 Captain Universe
01:46 Easily one of the best Spider-Man games of all time was the PS1 entry titled plainly
01:51 Spider-Man. Of course it's heavily outdated at this point but upon release boy was it
01:59 good. The game offered a bunch of great skins and costume alternatives with their own special
02:04 abilities but none gave the player as much of a boost as the Captain Universe costume.
02:10 Imbued with the uni-power in Spider-Man lore, this variation of Spider-Man was incredibly
02:15 powerful beyond his traditional abilities. In the game this costume grants the player
02:19 invulnerability, unlimited webbing and enhanced strength. All of this combined makes it arguably
02:25 the best costume in the PS1 entry.
02:29 Spider-Armor Mark 1
02:38 This entry is special as it is the first Spider-Man game to feature an alternate costume within
02:44 the games world. Spider-Man on the SNES and Sega Genesis was a hidden gem which admittedly
02:50 was a lot more fun on the SNES but still 2 great games. Within the game the player was
02:55 able to pick up the Spider-Armor Mark 1, a costume seen in the animated series the game
03:00 is based on. This outfit comes from an alternate reality version of Peter from a reality where
03:05 Ben Parker never died. The change in costume in game is very helpful as it offers an extra
03:11 layer of protection and also makes Spider-Man look a bit more freaking cool.
03:19 Symbiote Spider-Man
03:24 This costume seen in the PS1 entry of Spider-Man has nothing to do with cool abilities at all.
03:30 The suit doesn't offer any significant improvements to the gameplay but its appeal is very simple.
03:36 It looks hella sick. First appearing in Amazing Spider-Man issue number 252, the black suit
03:44 is the result of Peter Parker merging with an alien symbiote. This was the first black
03:49 suit variation and it inspired countless Venom storylines as well as Venom himself and in
03:54 the PS1 entry it just looks super goth. Unlimited webbing is a nice addition too but its mainly
04:00 about the looking cool thing.
04:07 Masked Marvel
04:08 This is all about nostalgia and fan service. In Spider-Man Edge of Time one of the unlockable
04:15 costumes was the incredible Masked Marvel, the costume Spider-Man wore when he jumped
04:20 in the wrestling ring after first gaining his powers. Wait a minute Matt I hear you
04:24 say that's not the wrestling costume. Well actually it is. When Spider-Man was first
04:30 introduced to the world in the comic Amazing Fantasy number 15 we got the first take on
04:35 Peter Parkers origin story and in this version he jumped in the ring as the Masked Marvel,
04:41 not the Amazing Spider-Man. Spider-Phoenix
05:00 In the second Spider-Man game on the PS1, players had the opportunity to grab any of
05:05 the costumes from the previous PS1 entry as well as a bunch of new ones. One of these
05:10 new costumes was Spider-Phoenix. Spider-Phoenix first appeared in Spider-Man number 25 where
05:16 Rachel Summers aka Phoenix dies and her powers are transferred to the friendly neighbourhood
05:21 Spider-Man. Only slightly weaker than the Captain Universe costume seen in both PS1
05:26 entries, this one is not only incredibly useful but looks awesome too.
05:36 Into the Spider-Verse
05:42 Spider-Man Into the Spider-Verse was the animated classic that shocked audiences around the
05:46 world with its quality and reception. Skyrocketing to the number 1 highest rated Spider-Man movie
05:52 of all time on Rotten Tomatoes, gamers were over the moon to see it featured in the 2020
05:58 Spider-Man game, Spider-Man Miles Morales. Unlocked through pre-ordering the game or
06:02 getting to a certain point, the gimmick of this suit was its animation style which made
06:07 Miles play and feel just like the animation style of the film. It was an awesome nod to
06:13 the highly successful movie and watching that lower frame rate animation style really made
06:19 our brains warm. Mmm warm brain.
06:27 Undies
06:31 With great power comes great responsibility. And I'm not just talking about that package,
06:36 damn. The undies suit from 2018's Spider-Man is not only the strongest outfit, the weirdest
06:42 outfit and the most unique outfit in the game, but it's also the hardest to unlock. Beating
06:47 the entire game 100% is a time investment, but once you've done it, you can don the Spidey
06:53 mask and a pair of Tidy Whities. Well, Tidy Spidey Whities. Actually they aren't even
06:59 that, they're just greyish. The suit is unique as it allows Spider-Man to take down an enemy
07:04 with one hit, but with one negative, enemies can do the exact same to Spidey.
07:14 Green Goblin
07:15 Spider-Man 2002 on the PS2 was one of the best PS2 games to drop, that was until Spider-Man
07:24 2 came out which was way better. In Spider-Man if the player beats the game on hard mode,
07:30 they unlock the shockingly interesting Green Goblin skin, which for all intents and purposes
07:35 isn't really a skin. The outfit puts you in the shoes of Harry Osborn and allows you to
07:41 replay through all the levels with a new story, new intentions and new voice lines from Harry,
07:47 giving the game a replayability that we weren't expecting. Also, flying around is just way
07:53 more fun than swinging around. Classic suit. No frills, no fanfare, let's
07:59 talk about the classic suit from 2018's Spider-Man. The suits ability Web Blossom is arguably the
08:05 best overall ability in the game, it's easy to use and takes down pretty much every enemy
08:11 surrounding you. But that's not what's important. This suit is inspired by the first Spider-Man
08:17 appearance in Amazing Fantasy #15 and that is why it's so important. Spider-Man means
08:24 so much to so many people and without the classic suit, there would be no costume variations.
08:30 Although we're used to it by this point, the Spider-Man costume is arguably the best superhero
08:36 outfit design of all time and it deserves it's moment in the sun here on this list.
