Backpacks are another kind of collectible in Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered. They contain items from your (Peter Parker) high school years and are a way for the game to relay some of the history behind each area of the city.
Finding all of the Backpacks will reward you with more than just a history lesson. There are Backpack Tokens to be earned as well as a new Spider Suit to unlock.
The following guide will help you reach all of the Backpack locations in Spider-Man Remastered.
How To Find Backpacks
Backpacks will not be available to find and loot at the start. You must first complete the “Keeping the Peace” mission which will unlock the Radio Towers.
Now, all you have to do is scale the buildings to reach and unscramble the Radio Towers. This will show the location of the backpacks in their respective areas on the map.
After unscrambling a Radio Tower, head to the green backpack icon on your map to find the collectible.
Backpack Rewards
You earn Backpack Tokens every time you find a Backpack in Spider-Man Remastered. Backpack Tokens are one of the currency types in the game that can be spent on upgrading your suit, suit mods, and gadgets.
Furthermore, there are 55 Backpacks in total, and finding all of them in Spider-Man Remastered will reward you with the Homemade Suit, which for the record has no special powers or skills.
For completionists, finding all of the Backpacks in the game is necessary for 100% district completion.
