The web-heads at Insomniac Games must be celebrating, as Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 sales have reached over 10 million copies as of February 4, 2024. The news was provided to us by Sony, who just released its financial results for the latest fiscal quarter.
“Today, we’re honored to celebrate an amazing milestone: Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has surpassed 10 million units sold, bringing the game series sales to an astounding 50 million units!” said Insomniac Games on Twitter. “Thank you for the support and making this spectacular journey possible!”
It’s “amazing” that with just three games in the series, 50 million units have been sold. PlayStation’s purchase of the talented studio Insomniac Games for $229 million seems to be a slam dunk with these Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 sales numbers.
Those who picked up the sequel might be happy to know there’s a big title update coming March 7. It will include New Game+, new suits to play in, and more. No other details are out yet.
The news of the game reaching 10 million units is no doubt a good win, after the trouble caused by the Insomniac Games hack late last year. Upcoming plans, development videos, and personal data were all shared from a ransom attack. Hopefully this success can help ease any lingering hurt from that.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 released back on October 20, 2023. Destructoid gave it a 9/10 review. “It’s abundantly clear that this series isn’t over yet, and I hope that Insomniac never really stops working on superhero games,” said our review. “There’s so much of the Spider-Man mythos that’s untapped so far, and you could keep this gravy train running with some crazier ideas once this presumed trilogy is over.”

There are many reasons why people like the Marvel’s Spider-Man franchise from Insomniac Games. It’s true that thanks to the PS4 and PS5, these games look gorgeous, and they’re only going to get better as they make more titles in the line. Plus, the gameplay is fluid and dynamic, making you feel like the Spider-Men while also having different attacks and abilities for both to use, making each unique. But the real reason that most praise the titles is the stories and portrayals of the characters. Peter Parker, Miles Morales, and others shine within the game in the best ways, and gamers gravitated to that.
A new rumor for MCU’s Spider-Man 4 claims Miles Morales will be a part of the film and fans are curious to know if there is any truth to it. Here is everything you need to know.
While the Spider-Man 4 news has been inconclusive concerning what direction the film will take due to behind-the-scenes disagreements, a new rumor suggests that fans will likely get the long-awaited debut of Miles Morales.
When it comes to big game releases, there are sometimes titles that get the “Oh my gosh, this is amazing!” statement when they first arrive, and then, over time, that feeling changes. Why is that? Well, it’s partially because some people are just so hyped to get the game that they enjoy everything for what it is at first but then slowly realize that some flaws are holding the game back. A certain title from Bethesda in 2023 comes to mind on that front, but that’s not what we’re talking about today. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is the title we’re talking about right now.
