IGN has unlocked its full suite of Marvel's Spider-Man interactive guides and checklists for free until 15 September 2026, letting players track every collectible and suit across the series in celebration of Spider-Man: Brand New Day
IGN has announced that its entire collection of Marvel's Spider-Man interactive guides and checklists is now available to all players at no cost until 15 September 2026. This limited-time access covers every major Spider-Man title in the PlayStation series, including Marvel's Spider-Man, Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and Marvel's Spider-Man 2. The move coincides with the cinema release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day and the arrival of new in-game suits inspired by the film and Marvel Tokon crossover.
Free Access to Interactive Guides
For the next month, players can use IGN's integrated checklists and interactive maps to track their progress across all supported Spider-Man games. The guides allow users to mark off completed objectives, collectibles, and suits, with progress automatically syncing between the checklist and map features. This update is designed to help players achieve 100% completion, whether they are hunting down every Spider-Bot in Marvel's Spider-Man 2 or seeking out the latest Brand New Day and Marvel Tokon suits.
IGN's guides have been updated to reflect the latest content, including new suits and collectibles added in recent patches. The interactive Manhattan maps for each game highlight hundreds of locations, making it easier to find secret photo opportunities, Black Cat stakeouts, and other hidden items. The checklists also cover trophies, side missions, and other completion targets, with real-time feedback on what remains to be found.
Coverage Across the Spider-Man Series
The free access applies to guides for Marvel's Spider-Man, Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and Marvel's Spider-Man 2. Each title's checklist has been expanded to include the latest content, such as new suits and crossover items. For Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, the guides now feature updated suit lists, postcard locations, and Easter egg tracking, all supported by an interactive map of Manhattan. Marvel's Spider-Man 2 players can use the guides to track every suit, Spider-Bot, and trophy, including those introduced in the recent Version 1.005 update.
IGN's system is designed to streamline the process of tracking collectibles and achievements, reducing the need for manual note-taking or external spreadsheets. The guides are accessible via IGN's website and require no account or subscription during the free period. This approach mirrors the growing trend of integrated, player-friendly completion tools in modern gaming, as seen in other major franchises.
How to Use the Checklists
To take advantage of the free access, players simply visit IGN's guides section and select the relevant Spider-Man title. The interactive maps allow users to click on locations to mark them as complete, while the checklists provide a detailed breakdown of every collectible, suit, and trophy. Progress is saved automatically, and players can switch between the map and checklist views as needed. The system is compatible with both desktop and mobile browsers, ensuring accessibility across devices.
IGN has confirmed that this offer will remain available until 15 September 2026, after which access may revert to standard conditions. The update is part of a broader push to support players revisiting the series following the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day in cinemas. For those interested in other upcoming Marvel games, Insomniac's next project, Marvel's Wolverine, was recently detailed in a separate feature covering its combat and story structure-see the full breakdown here.
Interactive guides and checklists have become increasingly important for players aiming to fully complete modern open-world games. These tools help track progress across sprawling maps and complex objectives, reducing the risk of missing hidden content or collectibles. By offering synchronised maps and checklists, platforms like IGN enable players to focus on gameplay rather than manual tracking, especially as games continue to expand in scale and complexity.
