Spider-Man 2 (PS5) features new and returning gadgets that can be upgraded to be used in combat and during missions. Read on to see what the best gadgets to upgrades are, a list of gadgets, gadget upgrade costs, and how to upgrade gadgets.

Best Gadgets to Upgrade

1. Web Grabber
2. Web Shooters
3. Upshot
4. Concussion Burst/Sonic Burst
5. Ricochet Web

Web Grabber

Despite being one of the earlier gadgets you can unlock, we highly recommend prioritizing upgrades to Web Grabber. Not only does Web Grabber's range increase but this gadget also pulls in throwables from the environment, effectively damaging enemies as they get pulled together.

Further upgrades will allow this gadget to pull in Brutes as well as increase the amount of enemies that get pulled in at once.

Web Shooters

Arguably the most iconic of Spider-Man's gadgets, Web Shooters should be prioritized next when is comes to gadget upgrades. Web Shooters can be used in any situation and upgrades to this gadget increases its maximum capacity to twelve slots while adding utility through its crowd controlling abilities with Splash Zone and Web Burst.

Upshot

Another gadget unlocked early on, Upshot can be a decent gadget to upgrade thanks to the crowd control it provides. Upgrades to this gadget increase its total charges and includes the ability to launch Brute enemies in the air.

Concussion Burst/Sonic Burst

Concussion Burst gets unlocked later in the game specifically once your character reaches Level 11. Upgrades to this gadget increases its chargers and blast radius while also disarming enemies which can be useful when fighting larger groups of enemies.

Ricochet Web

The final gadget unlocked in the game, Ricochet Web unlocks at Level 16 and while it can be used to slow down bigger groups of enemies, this gadget feels more useful in certain situations rather than something you'd constantly use in combat.

Should you have extra Tech Parts and Tokens on hand, upgrades to this gadget would be good as its charges and range would be increased.
