2018’s Spider-Man was my first PlayStation platinum trophy. Insomniac’s open-world adventure game made finding collectibles and 100 percenting the game straightforward and, even more importantly, a lot of fun. Fortunately, it’s no different in the just-released sequel. Here’s how to earn every regular and hidden trophy in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.

The PlayStation 5 comic book blockbuster has 42 trophies total, including the platinum for getting all of the other bronze, silver, and gold trophies. None of them are missable and you only need one playthrough to grab them all. Most are self-explanatory and you’ll naturally unlock them over the course of simply completing the story and every side activity in the game. A few are off the beaten path though, and require you to get creative. Some also reference missions late in the game, so don’t read through the list if you’re weary of mild spoilers.

Read on for some tips for a few of the more involved or off-the-beaten path trophies.

How to find every Spider-Bot for Funky Wireless Protocols

There are 42 Spider-Bots total scattered across the map. You can check each region to see how many are left in that particular area. The simplest way to grab them all is to methodically web-sling up and down city blocks while spamming the radar with R3 until you’ve covered every part of the map.

Most Spider-Bots are easy to see, but some are hiding underneath bridges and overhangs and a few are hanging high up in the sky and require you to glide off nearby skyscrapers to reach them.

If you didn’t play Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales or don’t remember Miles and Phin’s science project together, this one can be a little tough. The science trophy they won together is hidden in the back of Trinity Church’s roof in the Financial District. Web up to it as Miles and you’ll see the triangle button prompt appear.

How to glide to Astoria for “Soar”

There are probably a bunch of different ways to do this one, but what was easiest for me was to go to the top of One World Trade Center in the Financial district and then glide toward midtown while looking for the slipstream that will take you to the Queensboro Bridge, where you can then hop to another slipstream that will take you across the East River.
