Insomniac Games, the developer of the popular Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 game for PlayStation 5, has announced a new suit pack for the game that will also benefit a charitable cause.

The Fly N’ Fresh Suit Pack, which features four new outfits for the web-slinging hero, is available for purchase starting today until April 5. According to the developer, 100% of the purchase price in the US, up to $1 Million, will go to Gameheads, a non-profit organization that empowers low-income youth and youth of color to pursue careers in the video game industry.

The suit pack includes the following costumes:

  • The Bling Suit, which is inspired by hip-hop culture and features a gold chain, sunglasses, and a boombox.
  • The Retro Suit, which is a homage to the classic Spider-Man comics and cartoons of the 1960s and 1970s.
  • The Stealth Suit, which is a sleek and futuristic design that allows Spider-Man to blend in with the shadows and evade detection.
  • The Cosmic Suit, which is a colorful and psychedelic outfit that harnesses the power of the cosmos and creates stunning visual effects.

The suit pack costs $4.99 and can be purchased from the PlayStation Store. Insomniac Games has also confirmed that the suits will be available for free at a later date for those who do not wish to buy them now.

Gameheads is a non-profit organization that aims to diversify the video game industry by providing training, mentorship, and opportunities for low-income youth and youth of color. The organization works with schools, community centers, and industry partners to teach students the skills and knowledge needed to create their own games and pursue careers in the field.

Insomniac Games has expressed its support for Gameheads and its mission, stating that “we believe that everyone deserves a chance to make their mark on the gaming world, and we are proud to partner with Gameheads to help make that happen.”
