Before you can access any preorder bonuses, you must complete the first few main missions. Follow these steps:

Once all four missions are complete, your preorder DLC will be available.

Thoughts on my how to access Spider-Man DLC items post? Let me hear them in the comments below.
I put in the code after doing all the main missions and downloaded the code in the redeem code area and installed the dlc I went into the game and went to dlc and pressed on the heist and it put me in the PlayStation store and said I need to buy it PLS HELP !
I completed the 4 missions but I bought the digital deluxe not on a preorder from the PlayStation store and downloaded it. However I don’t have the suits what do I do
Help all! I preordered the deluxe Spiderman ps4 game from speedygifts.co.uk for my sons birthday next week. The game arrived fine but today I got an email advising speedygifts supplier cannot provide DLC codes. Knowing nothing about gaming, is the game now unuseable? Should I return it and buy it somewhere else? Will my son be disappointed if there’s no code? Please help – any advice welcomed!
Game will work but it wont have any added content and considering you sent as posted on the psn is 99.99 I would totally get for your money back and just buy the digital deluxe online.
I pre-ordered the Deluxe Version and just 100% the game but I still don’t have access to the bonus missions that come with it. Anyone have any ideas?
The bonus game isn’t out yet, there will be 3 bonus games, one comes out in 23rd October and the other one Novemeber and the last one December. (Date of nov and dec aren’t released yet) When the bonus game is released you can see it on the main menu
Right before Red Dead 2 comes out. Oof
It’s currently October 23rd and yet I still don’t have access to the DLC but I bought the deluxe version y can’t I see the dlc option or access the dlc
I bought the digital deluxe version of the game at GameStop and there were two different codes Ihad to input. One was for the game itself. One was for the extra bonus preorder content and I realized that only after I had played through the game and inuouted the bonus content code while in the middle of the game. I haven’t played since but next time I start up the game I’ll check to see if my content was added. As of now the preorder avatar for the ps profile worked so the rest should have worked as well. I’ll try and keep things updated.
When you originally pre-ordered the game (from wherever) that promised you the DLC, you would have received a code. — if you ordered online, then you probably got an email in the last day or so, just before release. (If you didnt, check your junk or spam folders) — Regardless how you got it, you need that DLC code.
Input that code in the Playstation store “Redeem Codes” section (either on your PS4 or on the website). This will download the DLC items and unlock the items in the game.
im also having that problem i just downloaded the dlc from the ps store and i still can’t acess the suits and didn’t revive my points, anyone suggestions?
Input the codes in ps store redeem section.
Great game. Just beat first Fisk construction site still don’t have access to the dlc items from my pre order digital deluxe
I pre-ordered the digital deluxe version at Gamestop on the sixth and then I didn’t download it till this morning on the seventh and I don’t have my five skill points or all the suits that came with it and I’ve done like six or seven missions already and I don’t have any of that stuff and I also don’t have the little gadget spider either that I was supposed to get also, I don’t know what I need to do from here… My version also is supposed to come with the season pass so hopefully I got that too which I don’t know if I do
Still not able to access my pre order bonuses. I bought the game at Gamestop and can’t find where I put the code in. Any help would be hugely appreciated!
Have you downloaded day 1 patch?
I think so. When I checked for updates it said the game is up to date. I figured the suits would be on the ps store but they aren’t :-/
I can’t access my suits either and I completed the 4 missions required. Help please!!!
Have you tried inputting the code in the redeem code section on the PS Store? I got the digital version, so I probably won’t be much help.
I got the digital version as well from GameStop and I can’t get it
Did you get them yet? I can’t figuee it out either. And my Spider-Man Therese aren’t there
What does everyone think of Spider-Man so far?
