How to unlock the Winter Suit in Spider-Man Miles Morales

The Winter Suit is one of the Spider-Man suits that you can unlock in Spider-Man Miles Morales.

Unlike the majority of the suits that need to be crafted, the Winter Suit is unlocked by completing the We've Got a Lead side mission. This side mission is part of a chain, so, if you want to complete it, you also need to unlock this side mission first.

How to unlock We've Got a Lead side mission in Spider-Man Miles Morales explained

To unlock the We've Got a Lead side mission in Spider-Man Miles Morales you first need to complete three side missions:

We've Got a Lead side mission in Spider-Man Miles Morales explained

You can start the We've Got a Lead side mission in Spider-Man Miles Morales by talking to Hailey in Harlem.

Once you've finished talking to her, head over to the docks in the Upper East Side and take out all of the enemies in the area. It's a good idea to try and take as many stealth-wise as possible.

After they're dealt with, move and then web-shut the gears on the building, so that you can open the door.

Investigate the footprints you find inside and then open the yellow box directly behind you, so you can activate the lift.

Rip open the doors and have a look around the hideout you've uncovered. When you're ready, interact with the computer to close down the criminal's connection with Fisk.

After a short conversation with Fisk, it's time to head back to C.J. Walker Park to stop his men's attack on the park. Be on your guard, because you'll have to fight multiple waves of enemies.

Once the fight is over, Hailey will give you her scarf and earmuffs, which will unlock the Winter Suit.

You'll also receive 1500 XP and 10 Activity Tokens for completing the We've Got a Lead side mission.
