Concept art for Insomniac’s canceled Spider-Man multiplayer game has just been leaked online, including a possible look at the title’s character creation screen. Insomniac infamously fell victim to a massive ransomware attack just a few months after Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 swung onto the PlayStation 5, exposing much of the developer’s plans for future Marvel video games. Among already confirmed titles like Marvel’s Wolverine and long-suspected projects centered around Venom and the X-Men was a game that Insomniac had reportedly already canceled long before the data breach: an online multiplayer title called Spider-Man: The Great Web.
Spider-Man: The Great Web would have featured a premise similar to the recent Spider-Man animated films, with Spider-heroes from all across the multiverse coming together to battle the Sinister Six in the open world of New York City. Earlier this month, a concept trailer for Spider-Man: The Great Webwas leaked online, giving curious players a better look at what the game could have been like had it not been shelved. In addition to the expected Peter Parker and Miles Morales, The Great Web would have included the Scarlet Witch in a major role, alongside already popular Spider-heroes that aren’t yet playable in an Insomniac game like Silk and Spider-Gwen.
Players would have been able to create their own spider-themed hero and join forces with these legendary crime fighters in Spider-Man: The Great Web, as revealed by a collection of leaked concept art shared by Reddit user danoka29 on r/insomniacleaks. One of these images features what looks like a character customization screen that lets players alter the face, hair, body type, Spider-emblem, and voice of their avatar before selecting a moveset inspired by existing Spider-Man characters like Peter, Miles, or Gwen.
