New Spider-Man 2 trailer reveals hench Venom and returning foes for the first time

eurogamer.net:

Insomniac Games released a new trailer for Marvel's Spider-Man 2 last night.

While relatively short, coming in at just shy of two minutes, it covered a fair amount of ground, giving us a peak at some of the ordeals that will be heading Peter, Miles and MJ's way this Autumn.

Notably, we got a look at Harry Osborn out and about with his friends again following a period in stasis, and of course, what we have all been waiting for — Venom. See for yourself in the video below.

So what's going on here then? Let's break it down — beware some spoilers for the first game.

Insomniac has said that Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will take place 9-10 months after the events of Miles Morales. We can see this time jump shown in the characters' updated looks, with both MJ and Miles sporting slightly different hairstyles.

But, more important than new coifs, during this time Harry Osborn has been released from the mysterious tank that was keeping him in a coma at the end of Marvel's Spider-Man.

The trailer opens with Harry reflecting on this, noting that a lot has happened, and it is a «miracle» he is still here. He then tells Peter he is going to «heal the world». An important bit of foreshadowing? I certainly think so, as while this trailer doesn't explicitly say, it seems to be setting up Harry as Venom.

Towards the end of the trailer, the hulking great mass of Venom is finally shown on screen in all his glory. Just before he makes his debut by leaping bodily onto what appears to be one of Kraven's helicopters (more on Kraven in a moment), the ominous vocal stylings of Venom actor Tony Todd proclaim «we're going to heal the world», reflecting Harry's earlier comment.

Again, while Insomniac has not said one way or the other yet, I would put
