How to fix Spiderman 2 Galvanize not Working

We were playing Spiderman 2 in Windows Report labs and as soon as the Galvanize prompt appeared on the screen in the Set Things Right mission, the game froze. Reloading didn’t work but the WR gaming team came up with a quick solution.

Why is Spiderman 2 Galvanize not working? Galvanize doesn’t work in Spiderman 2 because there is a glitch in the UI of the prompt that causes the game to freeze.

How do I fix the Spiderman 2 Galvanize not working issue?

  1. Go to the game menu.
  2. Load the game from the latest checkpoint in the Set Things Right mission.
  3. Press L1 + X immediately after the game loads.

After that, you will be able to use Galvanize even after cooldown because the game won’t freeze up anymore.

As it’s a UI prompt glitch, we’re expecting for it to be fixed soon so if you didn’t get to the Set Things Right mission, update the game and you probably won’t need this guide anymore.
