Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Brings Double the Spiders

Miles Morales & Peter Parker in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.

Insomniac Games’ first step into the superhero genre with Marvel’s Spider-Man was a blast in 2018, and felt like an adrenaline shot to the webhead’s video game prospects. Not long after, the studio followed it up with a spinoff focused on Miles Morales, which made it quite clear that it was in the Marvel space for the long haul. And now that both Peter and Miles have gotten their own games to shine, it’s time to see how they work together as a real unit.

Picking up some time after Miles Morales, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 sees the two Spider-heroes team up to take down Kraven the Hunter.

Players will switch between Peter and Miles at the press of a button, and each Spider will have their own special abilities. In the case of the younger Spider-Man, he’s got a wingsuit to help him get around New York faster than swinging webs. Even with their differences, it’s clear how much the two heroes are in sync as they take down Kraven’s army and hunt down the Lizard. Hopefully that relationship will still be intact when all is said and done.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 will release this fall, exclusively for the PlayStation 5.
