Research Stations are scattered throughout Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered, offering mini-challenges that reward players with valuable Research Tokens. While completing these stations is optional, they’re essential for unlocking fast travel points, making exploration much smoother.
Finding and completing research stations is crucial to fully utilizing the city and accessing all its secrets. These challenges test Spider-Man’s agility and problem-solving skills, offering a fun break from the main story.
There are 17 Oscorp Research Stations in Spider-Man Remastered, spread across different regions of the city.
While many of the Research Stations only require you to visit them in order to get the reward, some of them have additional requirements for unlocking.
