NOTE: There are spoilers ahead for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.
Shortly after Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s launch in 2023, Insomniac Games confirmed that Miles Morales would take up the mantle as the series’ primary wallcrawler going forward. With Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 having ended with Peter Parker deciding to retire, some wondered whether that meant he would have no role to play in the next instalment. That, however, won’t be the case.
The same has been confirmed by Yuri Lowenthal, the actor who plays Peter Parker / Spider-Man in the Insomniac series. Speaking in an interview with The Direct, Lowenthal confirmed that his character will still have a role to play in Marvel’s Spider-Man 3, and that he “won’t be relegated to the couch”.
“There are very few things that I can say about this game, but you have somehow landed on the one thing that I can answer, and that’s that, yes, Peter is not gone. He will be a part of the next game and he won’t be relegated to the couch, I promise,” he said.
What exactly that means remains to be seen, though it probably doesn’t come as a surprise that the next Spider-Man game is still going to feature- you know, Spider-Man. Whether Peter Parker will still be playable is the big question.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 3 has yet to be officially announced. As per a large-scale leak following a ransomware attack against Insomniac in December 2023, the game is targeting a 2028 release.
