“Marvel’s Spider-Man 2” Coming in October, New Details Shared

During today’s Summer Game Fest 2023, Insomniac Games revealed that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 will be coming exclusively to PlayStation 5 on October 20th.

  • Insomniac Games will launch Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 on Friday, October 20th, 2023, only on PlayStation 5.
  • The news was announced during today’s Summer Game Fest 2023, along with some other exciting details and some new art from the game.
  • First, we got a look at the box art for the game, which can be seen above.
  • We also got a look at Venom, who will be featured as one of multiple villains in the game.
  • The art below features the two Spider-Men doing battle with the sinister symbiote high above the streets of New York.

  • Another interesting detail was given regarding the fan-favorite character: Venom will not be Eddie Brock in this story.
  • In the comics, the Venom symbiote is worn by several other characters, including Mac Gargan and Flash Thomspon, though we don’t know exactly who it will be in this game.
  • Some art was shared for another villain who has a big role to play in this game: Kraven,

  • Once again, Miles and Peter do battle with the villain in this new art, but we also learned they will not be his only targets in this game.
  • While the recently-revealed gameplay footage showed the Lizard as another target for Kraven, it was revealed today that there are more “Spider people” in New York that the hunter could be after.
