How big is Spider-Man PS4's map? Being an open world title, people are naturally interested in how large Spidey's playground will be, and developer Insomniac has provided a decent enough answer. gamesradar reports that community director James Stevenson reckons the map is "probably four to six times that of Sunset Overdrive". For those who don't know, Sunset Overdrive - an Xbox One exclusive - was the last open world title that Insomniac created, and its map was of a very reasonable size.
In short, Spider-Man's going to have a huge sandbox for you to mess about in. Now we just have to hope that it feels alive and is stuffed with enjoyable distractions.

Sunset Overdrive is quite 'sizeable' but its not 'large' by some games standards. Horizon:ZD is certainly bigger and Arkham Knight 'felt' bigger too than SO - a game that may draw comparisons with because of the superhero and city type landscape...
As with every open world game, its not necessarily the size of the playground that's important but how well its filled with things to do. I don't want to have to travel 'miles' to find something to do just to make the world bigger...
I love how Insomniac is jumping around between consoles lol
So, five times bigger than Sunset Overdrive?
Hopefully not too big for the sake of it, would rather have a hugely detailed world from ground to rooftop rather having the map stretched. Witcher 3 is the only game I've played with a massive world where it didn't feel unecessary. Even then it wasn't completely seamless.
Playing SO now and that world is big enough but glad to hear this is much bigger b/c Spider gets around super fast when he's swinging.
My son restarted Web of Shadows on Wii in anticipation of this, that game was pretty big as well.
I'm not sure why you would ask how big it is though and not ask where you get to go and how realistic Manhattan is. Queens? Brooklyn? The Bronx? Staten Island? OK nobody ever goes to SI. Maybe New Jersey?
I'm glad to know it's big, but is it New York City or is it made up?
Bloody good.
Quality over quantity pls!
My game of the show
LOL...
"For those that don't know Sunset Overdrive's size, it was reasonable."
That doesn't bloody help at all you piker!
Compared to Xenoblade X? GTA5? Witcher 3?
It's freaking New York! It better, no, has to be big!
