Marvel's Spider-Man 2 launches this Friday, October 20, and ahead of that, developer Insomniac Games has issued an important notice to fans about how to have the best experience with the PlayStation 5 game at launch.
Spider-Man 2 went gold in late September, and since then, Insomniac has been working on «notable enhancements,» the studio said on X/Twitter. As such, Insomniac recommends that people download an update, version 1.001.002, prior to getting started. No one has to, though, and the game is playable from start to finish without the patch. The game has no internet requirement.
