Have you finished Marvel's Spider-Man yet? The game has been out for just a few days, but we imagine a handful of people will have stormed through it over the weekend. If you've completed Spidey's adventure and are itching for more, good news: New Game + mode is on its way. Answering a fan question, Insomniac confirmed the extra mode on Twitter:
There are no details beyond this, but we doubt it'll be too long before New Game + swings by in a patch. As for what it'll do, we imagine it'll be pretty standard -- enemies will be tougher, and you'll have access to all your upgrades, gadgets, and suit mods from the off. It's a good excuse to run through the story again and mop up any straggling collectibles or enemy bases. And it isn't too long before the first DLC chapter will be available, so you can keep your wall-crawling antics going.
Will you be playing Marvel's Spider-Man's New Game + mode when it arrives? Accidentally-on-purpose kick an enemy off a roof in the comments below.

Honestly, this might be the first time I consider a New Game + run. It's not the most original game in the world, but it's so fun to play.
sweet, i like New game + modes, it gives me a chance to just play the game and enjoy the story without having to be worried about my strength or equipment
Awesome! Still need to finish my first playthrough at the moment, will definitely do another play through on new game plus.
Wonder why new game + is always patched in rather than in the game day one nowadays. I fully get that sometimes it's time constraints. But a game like this which went gold several months ago, surely they could've had it ready for when the game released.
To be clear it's not that I have an issue with it getting patched or anything. I never play new game + so it doesn't effect me but it's more out of curiosity for a recent trend. And I'd always prefer content to be baked into a game at launch if possible.
It just doesn't seem like something that should be all the time consuming to implement. And especially for games like Spider-Man which seemingly wasn't rushed out to meet a tight deadline.
@Dange honestly i'm not sure but my best guess would be that they may have thought it wasn't necessary but after release loads of people asked for one
One of the few games I will play NG+ cause I want to try out all the costumes without looking ridiculous in cutscenes lol
NG+ is perfect for that "specific" spiderman costume............... ahahahahahahah no spoilers
@Neolit @Dange @FullbringIchigo I personally think it is because of articles like these. New Game + being patched in means that weeks after launch, the game is still being reported on in media outlets and you get all the usual Youtube videos going 'why New Game + is better than the base game etc.'. Perfect publicity to keep games in the publich consciousness. Plus, as mentioned, it is one less thing to do for launch.
@Rudy_Manchego yeah that makes sense
I've knocked quite a few enemies off rooftops, something I didn't think would happen, being under the impression that Insomniac had inserted a default function that webbed villains back to to the roof.
Oh, I'm loving the game BTW, often brings back memories of Infamous.
I haven't even finished it yet, but already want this NG+
Definitely waiting for the GotY/Complete edition now. They should have finished the game before releasing it.
@nathanSF you can save the people you knock off if you are quick enough. A quick R1 shot as they are falling and it does a quick web perch type move.
I need to finish it first, but I'm not in a hurry to finish it since I still want to explore the city and do all the side quest and collectables
@RainbowGazelle But if they finished the game before releasing it then they couldn't sell a Complete edition in a year for $60. 😉 They could still sell GOTY but those are usually only $40.
I'm waiting too BTW. I may even wait until I get a 4k TV and PS5, surely the complete edition in 2019 will be remastered in 2020.
This is great news for fans that have the free time to replay the game...sadly I am not one of them XD.
After I finish the game and beat the DLC, I will most likely sell it and move onto the next game in my backlog.
@Spidey-Fan1188 Great, thanks for that.
The bases are difficult. Maybe I should do more story and comeback. It's the 4th and 5th waves that seem to wear me down.
Hope they increase the difficulty for New Game +.
@nathanSF Interesting, I didn't like Infamous much but love this.
I got a platinum trophy so I honestly looking forward to NG+. So I can enjoy the story without some collectibles hunting around it and with powerful Spider-Man.
@nathanSF I also think its a lot like Infamous. With the side thinghs to do, game lengh and the game world is similary big.
If you told me that the same team make thouse games i would belive you. But that is okay because at the same time they are diferent enought and they are 9/10 So bring some more of games like this ones.
