It can be nice to have a TV show in your rotation that you know isn’t ending any time soon. But sometimes, you want something with an end point in mind from its creators. Freed from the pressures of renewal and cancellation, limited series can give us some of the best storytelling the medium of television has to offer.
Spider-Man 2 Releases New Update You Can Download Right Now

The latest Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 update is now available to download, bringing several bug fixes and other requested improvements. Insomniac launched the latest chapter of its critically acclaimed open-world superhero series on the PlayStation 5 back in October, pitting Peter Parker and Miles Morales against classic villains like Kraven the Hunter, the Lizard, and the long-teased Venom. Spider-Man 2 has been a smash hit so far, selling over five million copies worldwide and ranking as one of Insominac’s highest-rated releases.
Every superhero has their flaws, though, and Insomniac has spent the past few months working to address Spider-Man 2’s various glitches and perceived shortcomings through free downloadable update patches. The biggest of these came in March and finally added New Game Plus and the ability to replay story missions alongside a host of new costumes, special bonus challenges, and accessibility features. Additionally, Spider-Man 2 teamed up with Gameheads to sell a pair of alternate Peter and Miles skins, with the proceeds going toward helping underprivileged youth and youth of color looking to enter the tech and gaming industry.
Now Insomniac has released Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Version 1.002.003, an update patch that fixes bugs and glitches across a variety of different areas. One of these fixes corrects an issue players have been encountering with some of the game’s costumes, particularly Andrew Garfield’s updated costume from The Amazing Spider-Man 2, in which Spidey’s mask would appear unusually wavy. Other problems addressed in the new update include some users’ save data disappearing, custom accessibility presets resetting upon death, and the newly added Screen Reader feature not properly reading certain in-game text.
Fans are still eagerly awaiting news on Spider-Man 2’s post-launch story DLC, which was mentioned in the now-infamous Insomniac data breach last December. While nothing official has been confirmed by Insomniac, a more recent leak hinted that Janice Lincoln, aka The Beetle, could be the main antagonist of this DLC campaign. Other Spider-Man 2 DLC speculation suggests appearances from Carnage or Daredevil, or even a guest cameo from Wolverine ahead of his own titular game from Insomniac.
While gamers wait for a more legitimate confirmation about any new Spider-Man 2 story content, they can at least enjoy the smaller adjustments made to the game in its latest update patch. Spider-Man 2 is already an impressive technical showcase of the PS5’s capabilities, and the ongoing wave of fixes and refinements will help make sure that Peter and Miles have a smoother time swinging from the rooftops above New York City.

Spider-Man 2 Fans Point Out Missed Opportunity With Brooklyn Map
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 contains several great Easter eggs, but one fan recently pointed out a missed opportunity to include a real-life tribute to one of Marvel’s greatest heroes. While Insomniac’s Spider-Man games are in a separate continuity from other recent Marvel titles like Marvel’s Avengers and Marvel’s Midnight Suns, they still feature clever nods to other famous heroes like Black Panther and Doctor Strange. While exploring the open world of New York City, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 players can visit the Wakanda Embassy and Avengers Tower — and can even pay their respects to late MCU actor Chadwick Boseman at the former.
