That Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is set to be one of the biggest PS5 releases of this year is a bit of an understatement, and like with any upcoming major first party release, Sony is looking to fully capitalize on its popularity. Recently at San Diego Comic-Con, developer Insomniac Games showed off a new story trailer for the highly anticipated superhero sequel, while at the same time, Sony has also revealed limited edition hardware to tie into the game.
A limited edition PS5 console, DualSense controller, and PS5 console covers (for both SKUs of the console) have been unveieled, all three featuring a visual design that highlights the red of Spider-Man and the black of Symbiote, with the latter’s tendrils slowly creeping over the former. Of course, the white Spidey symbol from Insomniac’s Advanced Suit can also be spotted on all three.
A Limited Edition Bundle will be available and bundle together a limited edition PS5 console and DualSense controller, along with a digital code for the game’s standard edition. Meanwhile, if you already own a PS5, you can also purchase the DualSense and the console covers separately.
The Limited Edition Bundle, the new DualSense controller, and the PS5 console covers will all go on sale on September 1, with pre-orders set to begin on July 28. Meanwhile, those in the U.S., U.K., France, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Austria, and Portugal can also purchase the products directly from PlayStation Direct.

Sony has released the highlights of last week’s Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 San Diego Comic-Con panel.
It’s safe to assume that Venom is going to be the star of the show in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, but of course, he isn’t going to be the only antagonist that our two heroes will be locking horns with in the highly anticipated sequel. On top of the struggles in their own personal lives, as New York’s two Spider-Men, Peter and Miles will also be fighting against other famous Spider-Man villains in the form of Lizard and Kraven the Hunter. In fact, the latter is going to be the “catalyst” for the entire story.

Insomniac popped by San Diego Comic Con yesterday for to host a panel for their upcoming PS5 superhero sequel Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. The new story trailer is all about Kraven as one new antagonist, Venom, the alien symbiote that has become an iconic part of the Spider-Man story, and the shared story of Peter Parker and Miles Morales.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 had a big presence at San Diego Comic-Con yesterday, and it was punctuated by the “Symbiotic Relationships” panel that dropped the new story trailer for the title. In it, we saw the rise of Venom, the return of Harry Osborne, Martin Li, and more, and questions about how far certain heroes will go to save the day.

For example, Narrative Director Jon Paquette talked about where the game would “start off” and how our three main heroes aren’t in the same positions as before:
