If you can keep enemies in the air, most of their friends can’t touch you - and you can still dodge anyone who can. You can also perform trick stunts while falling - these grant additional small XP boosts and restore your Venom power in-between fights, making them worthwhile.Īerial Combat is literally the best thing you can do. You can also skim fairly fast across the streets by holding the swing button near the ground and tapping jump to gain small boosts forward at the same time. When in downtown areas with bigger buildings, you’ll find that pressing the jump button after a full swing lets you gain more height, momentum, and a bit of focus for your meter.

Always look ahead when moving to spot the next point you can zip to, and use Web Zip to gain that extra forward boost to the next rooftop. Remember that when jumping past rooftops, Zip to Point and Point Launch are better when there’s no buildings above you to swing from - and can let you cross roofs quickly in places like Greenwich or Hell’s Kitchen. Most of your time in Manhattan will be spent web-slinging from building to building - and as you get used to the controls, you’ll want to maximize your speed and traversal.

These tips might be familiar to fans of the previous game, but they're worth keeping in mind while playing as Miles all the same.
