An eagle-eyed Marvel’s Spider-Man player recently spotted some interesting side details about Dr. Octavius’s laboratory, including some clues about what it used to be before Otto rented it out for his research. Insomniac's critically acclaimed 2018 superhero sandbox adventure is filled with plenty of Easter Eggs to the larger Marvel Universe, including signs that other heroes like Doctor Strange, Daredevil, and Ant-Man are possibly active while Spider-Man is swinging around in New York City. There are also several fun little side details regarding Peter Parker and his universe of supporting characters, such as a touching and relatable text conversation between Peter and his beloved Aunt May within Marvel’s Spider-Man’s in-game social media feed.
Speaking of those close to Peter, one of the primary characters in the first Marvel’s Spider-Man game is Dr. Otto Octavius, an initially well-meaning scientist and mentor to Spidey when the hero isn’t taking down criminals. As per tradition, Otto eventually descends into villainy as the multi-limbed Doc Ock, a plot twist that is foreshadowed by a hidden detail in Marvel’s Spider-Man’s Photo Mode. Before that though, Dr. Octavius and Peter spend a fair bit of the game’s plot researching mechanical limbs — including Doc Ock’s signature steel tentacles — in a crude laboratory in Greenwich. Players often swing by this lab to assist Otto with his experiments by completing side puzzles, and Peter uses the facility to construct the Anti-Ock Armor he wears during Marvel’s Spider-Man’s personal and emotional final boss battle against the fallen scientist.
