Insomniac Games has officially announced during Summer Game Fest kick-off that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 will launch exclusively for PS5 on October 20, 2023.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 takes place following the events of the original Spider-Man and Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and sees Peter Parker and Miles Morales teaming up against band of new villains, including Kraven the Hunter and Venom. Peter will be able to take on the powers of the symbiote suite, which makes him more aggressive and powerful, offering a new side to the superhero.
Players will be able to switch between Parker and Morales during the game, although Insomniac has clarified that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is a single-player game and was always planned as such. The New York City setting has been expanded greatly, and is roughly twice as big as the original Marvel’s Spider-Man.
