Spider-Man 2 - How to Quickly Gain Focus

Players can quickly gain Focus in Spider-Man 2 (PS5) by doing long combo attacks on enemies. Learn more on how to boost your Focus generation, and how to perform long combo attacks.

How to Quickly Gain Focus

Chain Attacks and Maintain a Combo

Spider-Man 2 - Long Aerial Combo

The recommended way to quickly gain Focus is by continuously chaining attacks and maintaining a combo against enemies. The longer you can maintain attacks, the more Focus you will gain. Due to this, it is best to avoid any downtime from taking too long in between attacks or taking damage since these will break the chain and combo.

You can maintain attack chains easier if you launch your enemies in the air by throwing them or using certain attack skills, which may differ if you are using either Peter or Miles. When they are in the air, you can continuously attack them as long as you keep launching them up again in the air.

Dodge or Parry Enemies

Spider-Man 2 - Dodge Enemies

Dodging or parrying enemies also gives you Focus whenever you successfully do them. This makes it more beneficial to dodge or parry enemies rather than blocking them, while also helping you maintain a longer attack chain.

Get Focus Generation Skills

There may also be some skills in the skill tree that allows Miles and Peter to generate more Focus while doing combos. Although, this is just speculation as of now, and the page will be updated once these skills are confirmed.

How to Use Focus

Perform a Finisher Move

Spider-Man 2 - Finisher Move

Once you have filled up at least one bar of your Focus Meter, a button prompt will appear next to an enemy which lets you peform a finisher move on them. When it appears, press the Triangle and Circle buttons together to execute the finisher and take down your enemy.

Recover Lost Health

You can also heal back your health whenever you have Focus by pressing Down on the D-Pad. The more Focus you have in the meter, the more health you will heal back. With that in mind, it is best to always be attacking enemies so that you always have Focus for healing.
