In the recently released Marvel's Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker is unable to perform the 'Wakanda Forever' salute.
The Wakandan Embassy is included as an Easter Egg in the game and if Miles Morales stands outside, a prompt appears to perform the iconic salute.I dipped into the game to check myself and can confirm that while Miles can perform the salute, Peter cannot.So why can Miles perform the salute and Peter can't?
