Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is getting even more suits, including some designer outfits for both Peter Parker and Miles Morales that will hit the game for free on June 18.

In a PlayStation blog, developer Insomniac Games detailed the eight new suits, four of which were made in partnership with fashion mogul and designer Colm “KidSuper” Dillane and other celebrities. One Miles suit, called the “Metro Suit,” is a solo KidSuper effort that also comes with three additional variant colors and a top reminiscent of a puffer jacket.

Formula One driver Lando Norris, singer Rina Sawayama, and football athlete Vinícius Júnior also collaborated with KidSuper and Sony on their own suits that reflect a part of their personas, heritage, or sense of style. Júnior’s utilizes the Brazilian colors, while Sawayama’s for Peter makes him look like he’s about to hop on a motorcycle.

The other four suits bring in some familiar styles from outside the video game universe. Both Peter and Miles get Into the Spider-Verse-inspired suits (Miles’ is even animated), for example, and Miles is getting his Uptown Pride suit from the Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales standalone DLC.

The first Spider-Man game featured a ton of suits to choose from, but its sequel really upped the catalog size (there are suits for both Miles and Peter after all).

The update — referred to as version 1.003.000 — will also feature some changes based on “community feedback” and some general “stability improvements,” including the ability to switch around Symbiote and Spider Arms for traversal and parrying.

Starting a new story arc from scratch in a video game that’s been running for over a decade is a tall order -- and it’s one that Final Fantasy XIV’s Dawntrail expansion sets out to accomplish.

Setting sail westward and looking to the continent of Tural, the Warrior of Light and their companions seek to help Wuk Lamat, a female Hrothgar, in a contest for the right to rule the land of Tural. Dawntrail, which is set to launch on July 2 (and June 28 for those who preorder) sets the stage for political intrigue, exploration of a civilization unknown to us, and much more.

Developer Digital Eclipse is working on a surprising project: Volgarr the Viking 2. The 2D retro sequel will launch on August 6 for PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

The news is an out of left field reveal. The first Volgarr the Viking game released in 2013 and was made as an ode to 1080s classics like Ghosts 'n Goblins. Despite being a small release, it sold over 1 million copies over the past decade. As revealed during today's Guerrilla Collective stream, the series is coming back with a new sequel by Digital Eclipse, the team behind this year's Llamasoft: The Jeff Minter Story.

June 2024 is shaping up to be a pretty great month for PlayStation players. Not only are we coming off an entertaining State of Play showcase, but a new Days of Play initiative surrounding all the video game showcases this month is bringing a lot of new PS Plus additions with it. Many of those games hit PS Plus this week, and three in particular stand out to us.

For owners of Sony's oft-neglected PlayStation VR2, the first game is one of its rare exclusives that take full advantage of the headset's eye-tracking by seeing how often players blink. The next is a new PS Plus Essential game that's a revival of Sega's classic beat-'em-up series for the modern gaming era. Finally, the last title is an atmospheric and eerie fishing game that should entice fans of Lovecraftian horror.
