How Long Does It Take To Complete Everything?

Most players have claimed to have completed the main story of Spider-Man 2 within 15 hours by beelining it, while completing all side activities and earning the platinum takes upwards of 25 hours.

According to my PlayStation 5, it took me around 30 hours to complete the main game, all side activities, and unlock the game’s platinum trophy. The time it’ll take you to complete everything will vary depending on how many trophies you’re able to unlock while playing.

Here’s some tips on how to speed up trophy unlocks:

Make sure to use Peter’s Spider-Arm abilities as much as you can while fighting, as you need to defeat 100 enemies with them to get the ‘Armed And Dangerous’ trophy. This can be difficult if you’ve cleared all story missions and combat-based side activities, since you’ll need to rely on random crimes like I did.
Try to use Miles’ Evolved Venom abilities as much as you can, as you need to defeat 100 enemies with them for the ‘Evolved’ trophy. Thankfully, Miles still has a few combat side activities – Mysteriums and the Cultural Museum missions – to use them on.
Once unlocked, use Peter’s Symbiote abilities as often as possible WHILE using Symbiote Surge, as you need to use them 25 times during Symbiote Surge for the ‘Surge’ trophy. Again, this can be difficult if you’ve cleared all story missions and side activities!
When playing through the main story, use Web Lines for stealth as much as possible. You’ll need to take down 25 enemies using them for the ‘Slack Line‘ trophy.
Once unlocked, make sure to use Miles’ Reverse Flux to pull-in six or more enemies simultaneously for the ‘Overdrive’ trophy. This should be easy to unlock, and I nabbed this trophy immediately after unlocking the ability.
