How To Perfect Dodge in Spiderman 2

In most of the missions, players will have to take down thugs before they reach the main Spider-Man boss. While they do not have any extraordinary powers, they can overpower players with their numbers. Things can get even more complicated if the players have selected a higher difficulty. Thankfully, players can protect themselves using two methods: Dodge and Parry.

Spider-Man 2 players can parry to stagger enemies and deal damage while their guard is down. Parrying an attack at the right time is crucial to maximizing the stagger. To parry an attack, players need to press the L1 button just before an enemy is about to land a strike. If the timing is right, the enemy will be staggered.

The second option that players can use is dodge. Whenever an enemy gets ready to attack, the spider sense icon will appear over the hero's head. When the spider sense is white, it means that there is still time to dodge the attack. When it turns red, it indicates that the attack is extremely close.

Depending on their preference, players can either dodge an attack early or when it's close to landing. The former does not require a great deal of concentration, so many people will want to stick with it. However, dodging an attack at the last moment results in a Perfect Dodge. By doing this, players not only avoid an attack but also shoot a web to restrain an enemy.

In order to Perfect Dodge, players need to wait until the spider sense becomes fully red and starts to glow and then press the Circle button. Individuals playing a Spider-Man game for the first time might have some trouble, but it should be easily doable with enough practice. While Perfect Dodge has its perks, it is important to remember that it is more likely to get hit by an enemy's attack if it fails.

Spider-Man 2 is now available for PlayStation 5.
