Spider-Man 2: How to perfect dodge
During combat in Spider-Man 2, you can press the Circle button to dodge an enemy attack. But there’s a very specific timing to this dodge if you want it to be perfect. How you can perform a perfect dodge in Spiderman 2 is by pressing the Circle button when the warning indicator is red.
When fighting against enemies, Spider-Man’s spidey-senses will start to tingle when danger is near. If an enemy is about to hit him, you’ll notice a white circle indicator pop up as a warning. Hitting the dodge button at this time will perform a normal dodge. He’ll swerve out of the way in time.

The good thing about perfect dodging is that you’ll get more time afterwards to fight enemies without being hurt, as you’ll stagger the enemy you dodged. The same goes for parrying, since you can perfect parry at the right moment too.
Although the game does a good job at teaching you the basics of combat at the beginning, I’ve often misread tutorials or forgotten how to perform vital moves. Hopefully, this guide was able to help you understand how to properly perfect dodge in Spider-Man 2!
