Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Just Got Another Link To Daredevil

Peter Parker and Miles Morales face several villains throughout . While most of these villains have complete arcs in the game's campaign or are used to set up future appearances in sequels or potential DLC, there is one villain who appears in the game but doesn't have a clear story arc ahead.

The release of DLC for could finally resolve a huge missed opportunity from. The second game released in Insomniac's series,, was an outstanding title; however, the base game was short and it lacked any DLC. This was compounded in the most recent game, by the fact that, for the most part, comes across as a Peter Parker-orientated game, with Miles being relegated to the unenviable position of being the game's secondary protagonist — especially during the main story sections concerning Harry Osborn and the game's primary antagonist, the sentient alien Symbiote known as Venom.

Insomniac Games' is the latest in a series of video games that has done a phenomenal job of including a vast range of powerful adversaries for Peter Parker and Miles Morales to face — both universally known enemies and those that are little recognized outside the most dedicated Spider-Man fans. Despite this, there are a significant number of enemies that absolutely must feature in the inevitable sequel to the latest entry, — a few of whom have never made it into a game, but absolutely have the potential to be devastatingly powerful bosses that torment both Peter and Miles as well as New York.

, much like its predecessors has several references to other characters who inhabit Insomniac Games' Marvel Universe. While some of these heroes are incorporated into part of the games' main narrative, there are others that can be spotted via Easter eggs across the games' open world.

The perfect DLC for could significantly improve the story, but it would be a completely different game in terms of both gameplay and narrative. The popular action-adventure title by Insomniac Games allows players to take control of Peter Parker and Miles Morales as they face new threats to New York City, but this time even more united. Both heroes take on their Spider-Man persona to fight crime in the city and stop Kraven’s plans, as they try to understand the presence of the Symbiote known as Venom. Other than Peter and Miles, there are many returning characters, such as Mary Jane.

Players, however, noticed a peculiar omission in a game scene.

Throughout , the life of the original Spider-Man, Peter Parker, is put in perilous jeopardy on numerous occasions. The web-shooting, wall-climbing superhero has seemingly never been so vulnerable in any of his previous bouts, including the showdown with the Sinister Six in Insomniac's first title. Despite the plethora of threats in, Peter is a remarkably resilient character, though at one point his toughness and durability are tested to the extreme. Though an iconic figure, he is far from immortal, a fact that has led many to wonder what happens to Spider-Man in — could he really be killed by Kraven or Venom?

Although Kraven was briefly hinted at occupying the role of the ultimate antagonist in , in reality, that distinction goes to one of the most universally recognized antagonists from the Spider-Man franchise, the amorphous sentient alien symbiote, Venom. While numerous figures have held the unenviable role of playing host to Venom in the franchise's numerous movies, comics, and video games, in the dishonor belongs to Peter Parker and MJ's friend, Harry Osborn.

Developer Insomniac Games has returned a Daredevil reference to Marvel's Spider-Man 2, just days after the director teased speculators about it. 

A Easter egg may be hinting at some unexpected DLC content for the game. While many had expected story DLC for Insomniac Games' acclaimed superhero sequel, much like DLC for the first, most of the theories around its content revolved around continuing a story set up in one of the title's side missions, but this may not be the case.
