Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) has just announced that it will be partnering up with Sony Pictures to bring new exclusive content in game. With the collaboration, the game will soon bring special ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ based items.

The South Korean video game maker, Krafton, made the announcement earlier this week and stated that ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ will make a special cameo appearance in the upcoming update. According to an official statement, “Starting today, BGMI players will have the opportunity to get exclusive items such as collaboration skins by completing in game missions. More details on gameplay and items will be revealed with the launch of BGMI version 1.8 update in mid January. ”

Similarly, Sony exec, Jeffrey Godsick, added that “This exciting collaboration will allow fans around the world to expand their engagement with their friendly neighborhood Spider-Man through BGMI’s state of the art gaming experience.” As of right now, it is currently unknown what we can expect to see in the game. But the collaboration would likely bring a number of new custom skins for the Hero along with some notable side characters and even villains as well.

As of right now, Fortnite already has a number of skins based on the popular superhero movie. So it arrives as no surprise that the popular mobile based battle royale title is also bringing in the beloved characters to the game, since movies based on the Marvel universe have typically made an appearance in video games.
