Insomniac Games has confirmed that Marvel's Spider-Man 2 won't feature in-game rewards for players who have the platinum trophy for previous games.
With the highly-anticipated sequel only weeks away, some players are seemingly in the process of finishing the first two games to completion — platinum trophy and all — in the hopes that they'll be rewarded with in-game items when Spider-Man 2 launches.
However, if you're expecting something for your hours of game time and dedication, you'll be disappointed.
Community director James Stevenson was recently asked by a Twitter user (via GamesRadar) if there will be in-game rewards in Spider-Man 2 for players who have the Platinum trophy and completed save files for Marvel's Spider-Man and Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
To this Stevenson simply said, «There are not.»

It looks like Insomniac had plans to award these players at one point, but the idea never came to the final game. The developer responded to reports of the message saying that this was a visual bug and that players hadn't in fact unlocked anything.
Previous Insomniac games, such as the Ratchet & Clank sequels on PlayStation 2, did offer free weapons and shop discounts to players who played previous games, but it looks like this won't be the case with Spider-Man 2.
