Insomniac have taken to the stage of Summer Games Fest to announce that Spider-Man 2 will be out on October 20th, 2023, exclusively on PlayStation 5.
The didn’t show any more gameplay footage but they did say that one of the enemies in the game, Kraven then Hunter, is hunting “all the Marvel characters who live in New York”. That could mean the likes of Doctor Strange, Daredevil, Luke Cage, The Punisher, Iron Fist, Jessica Jones, Moon Knight or even the Fantastic Four make an appearance.
Here’s the trailer from the recent Sony showcase.
The new trailer shows Peter in his symbiote suit using the symbiote powers to fight enemies. The footage also shows that you can switch between Peter and Miles, to cover different parts of New York City.
The gameplay shows a river chase with both Spider-Men chasing after Lizard and Kraven’s hunters, with players switching between both Miles and Peter during the chase. The game will be released in Autumn 2023. Both are assisted by a drone being flown by Genke, who know provides additional support to take down the enemy vehicles.
Spider-Man was a great game on PS4 and has been remastered for PS5 alongside the release of Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
We gave Spider-Man: Miles Morales a great 8/10 in our review. “Spider-Man: Miles Morales feels like more of a sequel than it is a stopgap, entangling players within its web of cleverly refined mechanics while delivering some familiar web-slinging thrills,” said Jim. “A heroic technical showcase for PS5 owners picking up their consoles on day one, this meaty side story in the Spider-Man saga has us even more excited than before to see what Insomniac Games have planned next.”
