Marvel's Spider-Man 2's release date is still a little under two months away, but to get fans hyped up nice and early, PlayStation has been selling the special edition PS5 console, plates, and controller that were first announced about a month ago. These products recently shipped to everyone who has pre-ordered, and despite being a pretty snazzy looking machine in the announcement trailer, fans aren't best pleased about its overall design
Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will let you slow down combat for better accessibility

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will let players slow down combat for better control over fights.
The PlayStation website has been updated with brand new details for Marvel's Spider-Man 2, where a new slate of accessibility options is revealed. Perhaps most crucially, the website reveals the gameplay can be slowed down to 70%, 50%, or 30% of the normal speed, and then switched back to full speed whenever the player wants.
Elsewhere, players will be able to enable a screen reader option to read aloud all on-screen text in menus. On that same topic, there are both on-screen captions and audio descriptions available to be toggled on for cinematic cutscenes, so players will more easily be able to follow the action in cutscenes.
The PlayStation website mentions developer Insomniac specifically wants to build upon the accessibility options that were offered in Marvel's Spider-Man, Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and the remastered version of the original game. This means older features like automatically succeeding quick-time event sequences could be back in Marvel's Spider-Man 2.
From the text on the PlayStation website though, there's no guarantee that every single accessibility feature from Insomniac's past titles will be back in the new game. We'd recommend not automatically assuming Spider-Man 2 will boast features like a performance mode, therefore, until we hear an official word on the matter from the developer itself.
Marvel's Spider-Man 2 finally launches later this year on October 20. We already know the Marvel's Spider-Man 2 pre-load date and times around the world, and it gives fans a surprising amount of time to download the sequel ahead of release.

Diablo 4 season 2 will let you farm for specific Unique and Uber Unique items
Blizzard tonight announced that Diablo 4's second season, named Season Of Blood, will begin on the 17th of October. Given that the first season is uninteresting, I'm not super fussed about that. What does sound good is quality-of-life changes coming alongside the new season. For starters, your inventory will no longer become clogged with six billion gems. Season Of Blood will also let you pick specific Unique and Uber Unique items to farm bosses for, which is most welcome given how vital Uniques can be for builds. Here, watch the trailer.
