Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 builds on accessibility in previous titles and introduces new features

Spider-Man 2 has a lot to live up to. The first game was one of the most entertaining PS4 titles and gave players the full experience of being Spider-Man, swinging around New York city to their hearts’ content. Could the sequel offer the same joy, beauty and an equally interesting story while delivering on the dual-protagonist concept? Yes, yes it can — though Insomniac skimped on a couple of areas they shouldn’t have.

Spider-Man 2 is one of the most confident sequels we’ve played in years. Not only does it address, often mock, and then resolve the issues of the first game, but it also introduces new mechanics to improve the best parts of the original.

Sony has shared the official launch trailer for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. This trailer shares quite a bit but is also perplexing for what it now takes out.

PlayStation has released a Spider-Man 2 launch trailer, ahead of reviews going live on Monday and the much-anticipated sequel’s release on October 20.

The wait for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is slowly drawing to a close, with the open-world superhero title launching next week. Fortunately, it’s available to pre-load on PS5, so you can download it now and start playing as soon as it releases.

Spider-Man 2 will be chock full of new and interesting suits for both Peter Parker and Miles Morales to wear while they swing around New York, but the full range of suits on offer is still unknown. Thankfully, developer Insomniac Games has given us a first look at two new suits that will be included in the game when it launches, those being the Brooklyn 2099 suit and the brand-new Kumo suit.

Spider-Man: Miles Morales opens with a smooth rumble of the Dual Sense controller and into 125th Street subway station, Harlem. The follow-up to 2018’s Spider-Man, knows exactly where it needs to place Miles to set the stage for a world that celebrates its title character’s culture. As Miles sets foot into the neighborhood he will soon fight to protect, we immediately see what sets this Spider-Man apart. Effectively known as the “Main Street” of Harlem, this neighborhood is known as a center of commerce, brimming with cultural significance. It’s where we first see Miles Morales take center stage. We’re greeted with the ice and snow-packed streets of New York at Christmas, and a thumping beat that Miles bops his head to. There is a sense of community and culture that Insomniac has taken meticulous care to craft.

My most anticipated game for this year is almost here with Spider-Man 2, and to help celebrate the launch, Sony Interactive Entertainment is proud to debut and share its new cinematic spot for the latest adventure in the critically acclaimed Marvel’s Spider-Man franchise. Spider-Men, Peter Parker and Miles Morales, will face the ultimate test of strength inside and outside the mask as they fight to save the city, each other and the ones they love.

Insomniac Games has confirmed that Marvel's Spider-Man 2 won't feature in-game rewards for players who have the platinum trophy for previous games.

Sony has announced another Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 PlayStation 5 console bundle.

The fact of the matter is that people want to be playing Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 right now instead of having to wait several weeks for it. Granted, the game has gone gold, and people are happy that it won’t be delayed again, so there is that. But while the wait is shorter, it’s not short enough. As such, people are starting to look for any pieces of information that can help them satiate their desire for their title. It won’t be enough, but it’ll do for now. For example, on Twitter, someone was able to find out the start screens for the game, and they paint two very different pictures.

One of the first titles of writer Jonathan Hickman's new Ultimate Universe has been announced, and it's the same one that started the original Ultimate Marvel line way back when: Ultimate Spider-Man.
