Marvel's Wolverine, the upcoming game from PlayStation and Insomniac about everyone's favourite burly lad with claws that'd make any cat feel a bit jealous, has reportedly undergone a leadership reshuffle. Former creative director Brian Horton is no longer attached to the game, having subsequently jumped over to work on the Perfect Dark reboot Xbox has in the works.
]]>Insomniac confirmed last week that no new story content is coming to Marvel's Spider-Man 2, but a new update will still likely be welcome to (some) fans.
]]>It's time to settle the debate – Deadpool or Wolverine? The year's most chaotic superhero flick, Deadpool & Wolverine, is up for grabs in glorious 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and digital. And yes, preorders are live over at Amazon / Amazon UK.
]]>It's been previously claimed that Crash Bandicoot 5 was in the works, and now a new report has shed some very purple light on the game.
]]>The PlayStation first shipped in 1994 and very quickly made its way into the homes of gamers worldwide. It’s a console that - alongside the PlayStation 2 - many hold near and dear, for good reason. The console was home to a multitude of RPG’s, action games, and highly successful series that were finding their footing at the time, garnering Sony plenty of power that it’s since held on to and grown…for the most part.
]]>Invincible had its season 2 finale this week, and while it couldn't pull off the comic's Spider-Man cameo, the show's parody version is now a playable mod.
]]>A recent update for Marvel's Spider-Man 2 has allowed access to the game's dev menu. This means that players can access developer tools, including god mode, access to Venom in free-roam, mission select, and even a look into an unreleased Beetle villian boss arc.
]]>The player's choice nominees for the BAFTA game awards have been announced, and feature a wall-to-wall roster of absolute bangers for the public to pick a champion from. As the last major video game awards show for 2023 heavy-hitters, this could be the last chance for some of these games to take home a trophy come April.
]]>PlayStation has announced plans to lay off 900 people from its global workforce, as part of a reduction of the company's overall headcount by 8%. Several PlayStation-owned studios - including Insomniac Games, Naughty Dog, and Guerilla Games - will be affected, with PlayStation Studios' London Studio set to be closed entirely.
]]>Sony has confirmed that it doesn't have any plans to release any new entries in its existing major franchises - the likes of your God of Wars and your Marvel’s Spider-Mans - between April 2024 and March 2025.
]]>A group of hackers which allegedly breached Insomniac Games have now released a bunch of sensitive data it stole into the wild, after threatening to do so unless it was paid a hefty ransom.
]]>Sony's live-action Spider-Man Noir series has taken on Steve Lightfoot as co-showrunner, a name that might be familiar to Marvel fans.
]]>Marvel's Spider-Man 2 sounds like it almost could have been quite different, as the voice behind Venom himself said that Miles almost had the symbiote suit.
]]>It's not exactly controversial to say that Insomniac's take on the one and only Spider-Man is pretty damn good. Both the first game and its recently released sequel have their share of problems, but man, swinging round New York is just damn simple fun. That web-swinging is obviously the key thing that makes a good Spider-Man game a great one, and there's one game in particular that helped lay the groundwork for Insomniac's strong sense of movement: Sunset Overdrive. And gosh, I really do wish they would make a sequel.
]]>Marvel's Spider-Man 2's cube glitch is back, this time taking over an entirely different costume, proving it deserves to be officially recognised.
]]>Marvel's Spider-Man 2 sets up plenty for the future, but the question of just which Spidey we'll be following is one some fans might still have.
]]>New Game Plus is increasingly becoming something of a standard in games that pride themselves on their replayability, and since Marvel's Spider-Man 2 definitely wants you to take more than one trip around its lovingly rendered vision of New York City, it's for sure a feature many players want to see.
]]>Like its predecessors, the Marvel's Spider-Man 2 trophy list promises to make a satisfying addition to your PlayStation Platinum collection: it doesn't make any ridiculous demands of you, instead encouraging you to just explore the game fully and enjoy everything it has to offer. And since web-swinging around the newly expanded New York City map is a genuine joy, adding another Platinum to your accolades isn't a distant dream.
]]>As Marvel's Spider-Man 2 introduces a fresh take on Venom, one of the game's lead devs explains the thought process of opting for someone other than Eddie Brock.
]]>After fans have been speculating since its reveal, Insomniac's upcoming Wolverine game is confirmed to be in the same universe as Marvel's Spider-Man.
]]>Whether you want a rough idea of how long it'll take you to play a game or are just wondering how far through the story you actually are, nothing beats a good mission list. Marvel's Spider-Man 2 weaves together so many main story missions, side stories, and open world activities that it can be hard to keep track of them all in your head.
]]>Gimme ham steak on rye with extra pickles and a half dozen egg whites on the side. Hold the pickles. Who's uncle do I gotta bribe to get a sandwich around here?
]]>If you're having some trouble pinging the Hang Ten trophy in Marvel's Spider-Man 2, don't worry: you're not alone. The trophy, which rewards you for completing the feat of performing 30 consecutive air tricks while web-swinging across New York City, is simple enough in theory but has plenty of players baulking in practice. 30?! That's loads!
]]>Marvel's Spider-Man 2's main story mission Good Men sees you step into the shoes of Mary Jane Watson, who notably doesn't possess the powers of a radioactive spider. Instead, MJ relies primarily on stealth to get around the legions of baddies she manages to encounter in the course of her story — and, incidentally, if you want to go into that story totally fresh, beware spoilers from this point on!
]]>Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is off to a fantastic start already. The PlayStation-exclusive action adventure has sold over 2.5 million copies in its first 24 hours on sale. The tremendous milestone was revealed earlier today on the official PlayStation Twitter account.
]]>It's safe to say that it's quite hard to relate to a billionaire like Tony Stark as a character, something that Marvel's Spider-Man 2 creative director Bryan Intihar understands quite well.
]]>Insomniac might be aware that some players want a longer playtime for their money, but the developer's goal is "to make sure that you feel no matter how long it is, it's worth that money."
]]>Quite a few people in Europe and the UK who purchased a physical copy of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 are reporting installation issues.
]]>Don't worry if it's been a while since you played the first pair of Spider-Man games, Sony has released a short recap to catch you up to date ahead of Marvel's Spider-Man 2.
]]>While players have barely had a chance to dip their toes into the highly-anticipated Marvel's Spider-Man 2, one Insomniac developer has already teased that the studio’s next superhero game could be a spin-off involving Venom.
]]>If you're already thinking about replaying Marvel's Spider-Man 2 before it's even out, you'll probably be happy to hear it is getting a new game plus mode before the end of the year.
]]>New to the world of Marvel's Spider-Man, or just in need of a quick refresher before jumping into Marvel's Spider-Man 2? From traversing New York City to dealing with hoards of baddies single-handed, there's a lot to get to grips with in the world of Spider-Man 2.
]]>Miles Morales has been through a bit of a tough time as Spider-Man – even though he's not been doing it that long. Like his mentor, he's suffered loss in droves, and the second main game in the series would like you to remember that. So it's only right you make a little pilgrimage in the name of Phin, right?
]]>During your Marvel's Spider-Man 2 adventure, you'll encounter a fairly long set-piece where basically every main character meets up for an evening of fun at the Coney Island amusement park. For much of the time, you'll be playing as Peter sans his Spidey-suit, hanging out with MJ and Harry and reminiscing about old times.
]]>No matter what iteration of Spider-Man you read, watch, or play, someone close to Peter Parker always kicks the bucket early in his life – Uncle Ben, Aunt May, Gwen Stacey; ther are a lot of Spider-Traumas that Peter has to live through in every version of his life. Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is no different, and Aunt May's death at the FEAST center in the previous game will attest to that. It's only right that you remember her, now that the stakes are even higher in Insomniac's first PS5-only title.
]]>When you're playing as either Peter or Miles in Marvel's Spider-Man 2, it's essential you engage in a little bit of rest and recuperation. After all, swinging through Manhattan and going fist-to-fist with men made of sand, hulking lizards, and deluded illusionists takes its toll, eventually.
]]>There's no character creation suite Marvel's Spider-Man 2, but that's not to say that you can't add a bit of personal flair to Peter and Miles' wardrobes through equipping the various suits and suit styles on offer. This time around, the Spider-Men have 32 suits each — many of which have as many as four different colour variants for you to unlock as well — all adding up to hundreds of potential fashion choices.
]]>Sony, Marvel, Insomniac Games, and General Mills have banded together to the game Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 on the Wheaties cereal box.
]]>Spider-Man is about balance. Right back to the earliest days of the Ditko and Lee comics, this has always been the case. Your friendly neighbourhood arachnid has always struggled to find the balance between his personal life, his duty as Spider-Man, the weight of his community, his power, and – as you might remember – his responsibility.
]]>The launch trailer for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has dropped ahead of the game’s arrival on October 20 and, for better or worse, there’s one particular line from it that fans have been busy.
]]>You'll probably be happy to hear that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is getting post-launch suits, though they're coming from some surprising sources.
]]>A fancy new cinematic trailer for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has been shared by PlayStation, and boy does it make Venom look good.
]]>If you're a fan of playing through a story without really knowing what to expect as the narrative wears on (and let's be honest, who isn't?) you probably want to keep at least one eye out for some dodgy Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 spoilers that are floating around the internet.
]]>Those of you that want to be able to exercise complete control over your web-swinging will be happy to hear Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has some features that let you do just that.
]]>Insomniac has shared some of the accessibility features that will be available in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, and confirmed that it will be compatible with the upcoming PlayStation Access controller.
]]>Voice actors represented by SAG-AFTRA - a US-based media union - have voted overwhelmingly to authorize strike action. Of all eligable members, 98% voted to approve a potential strike, according to a SAG-AFTRA news post.
]]>With Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 due out next month, Peter Parker's voice actor Yuri Lowenthal thinks you should "get over" the character's face change.
]]>The two Marvel’s Spider-Man games that have been released to date (2018's Marvel's Spider-Man and 2020's Miles Morales) have been great examples of what you can do with a shorter open world game. The more focused scope of the games results in Insomniac being able to pump more love into the setpieces that did make the cut. It means that a pacier, more engaging storyline can take center-stage. It means that there’s not a surplus of open world bloat dragging the whole experience down.
]]>If the success of our ‘All Suits and How to Unlock Them’ page for Spider-Man on PS4 is anything to go by, there’s one thing I know for sure about the Insomniac Marvel games: people love the suits.
]]>I went into Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 thinking it would just be more of the same. That’s not a bad thing – with only 1.5 games in the series to date, developer Insomniac knows that this formula ain’t broke, so there’s no need to fix it. And I was largely right; if you’ve played both Peter’s and Miles’ take on PlayStation Spider-verse, there’s very little here that’s going to shock you. It’s gaming comfort food, a safe summer blockbuster, your favourite band’s familiar encore.
]]>Insomniac provided a new look at Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 during the PlayStation State of Play presentation this evening.

]]>I didn’t watch the PlayStation Showcase live for a number of boring reasons (one involves projectile vomiting, if you must know), but I watched it as if live this morning hoping a string of exciting announcements would lift my dreary bones. My bones were not lifted. In fact they spontaneously moved to form the exact pose of the shrug emoji.

It was always a good console, but 2023 was the first year when you could potentially just buy a PS5 without waiting in a digital queue and pouncing like an eBay sniper for even the most legitimate of purchases.
]]>Unlike our gamer-phobic Keanu, it turns out Tom Holland is a bonafide gamer. In fact, he loved playing Marvel’s Spider-Man on PS5 so much, that one of the game’s moves made it into the upcoming MCU flick, Spider-Man: No Way Home.
