Marvel's Spider-Man 2 'Making Good Progress', Still on Track for 2023

Spider-Man 2018s gameplay got shown 2016, 2 years prior of its release. So I really doubt 2023 is the year of Spider-Man 2 in 2023. But I would love to be wrong about that.

That's what most devs have said before so I don't believe that for one second

@uptownsoul Not a chance if SM2 is not also coming to PS4 lol

I'd guess we'll see first gameplay at the Game Awards and the game releases in September 2023 given the release timings for FF16 and FF7 Rebirth.

@uptownsoul E3 2016, the initial reveal had gameplay.

@uptownsoul Its not bigger than Zelda tho lol, especially a sequel to the best selling Game of the Franchise. And again, there are way less PS5s sold than Switch Consoles. And not forgetting that PS5 sales are also way behind the PS4 cause of shortages. After recent Interviews Im certain that SM2 will come to PS4 too tho

Spider man 2 could out sell Zelda if they made it cross generation PS4 and PS5 also later PC sales.

@uptownsoul Splatoon 3 sold almost 4 Million Games in 3 days in Japan alone. Thats more than the majority of Sony exclusives sell world wide on Release haha. The last Animal Crossing sold 11 Million in less than 2 weeks too

N.i.c.e. i cant wait for marvel spiderman 2.the first one is amazing.queens new york represent.word up son

They shouldn't have made Miles yet tbh.
Peter is now the backseat in his own game. Miles has exactly the same skill set and plays exactly the same yet has better additional powers than the actual spider-man. They also made Peter weaker in Miles (getting knocked out by Rhino then saved by the rookie). He should have come later.

Aka we'll show it whe its ready - completely the right approach.

Hope they find a way to introduce some new environments beyond just New York in this one.

Whatever the case, i can't wait for this

When was new God Of War gameplay shown? A few month before release. It will be ok, insomniac releases games on time

Insomniac seems to have their development pipeline down to a science so I'm confident it will release next year. If it doesn't though it's fine. Not the end of the world when a game gets delayed.

Amazed that they bothered answering to someone who admitted to bugging them about the game. I’m looking forwards to it too, but it’s really not that hard to just wait patiently.

Spider-man, spider-man, does whatever a spider can, watch out, here comes the spider-maaaaan

Christmas 2023 is a possiblity, wouldn't be surprised at all if it was put back to 2024 though.

Can't wait! I'm already sold for day 1 and part of me doesn't want to watch so I could enjoy it properly when it launches. But i don't think I have the willpower to look away

Insomniac. Possibly the best developer of video games out there. The fact they're so productive with every game being such a high quality is insane.
Cannot wait for this one.
Side note, I wouldn't be surprised if this isn't PS5 only after all based upon the recent comments of not leaving PS4 behind by Mr Ryan, but I'm sure this game will be amazing regardless.

The same people saying spider man 2 isn’t coming out next year is the same people who was saying god of war Ragnarok wasn’t coming out this year. I put my faith in Insomniac because spider man 2 been in development since at least 2018.

Oh the death knell of reassurance from corpo.

Can't wait. Please don't release it only 30fps ...

Glad Insomniac is holding down the fort for Playstation. They’re pretty much the reason I’ll get a PS5 when this comes out.

…unless there’s a PS4 version 😉

TBH, even though I have a PS5 I would like Spiderman 2 (and RE4 but this was confirmed) to come to PS4. Some of my friends won't be able to play the games otherwise. As for the next Final Fantasy games I am not really sure...

I’d rather they work on the game then give us a video to see. A little bit of game play would be nice but I think most people would know what it looks like or plays like from the last two games.

@Ashcrapper Miles Morales had a performance mode on release, so I would be shocked if Spidey 2 didn’t have at least the option to change frame rate on PS5.

Sure. That's what they said about Instinction... a Dino Crisis spiritual successor. "It's on track..." It was supposed to release a month ago after being delayed a year. Now it's delayed until some time in 2025... practically vaporware.

I'll believe a release date window when I see the game sitting on store shelves.

If anyone can deliver a great game in a timely and efficient manner, It's Insomniac Games! They are wizards when it comes to working on multiple games at once and STILL releasing them at a reasonable timeframe. And should it be delayed, then so be it, I'd rather have a delayed more polished game versus a rushed-out game with issues.

I’d imagine they’re building this on the foundations of the original Spider-Man and MM so the basis of the map should be there, hopefully they’re adding in some interiors etc to shake things up. I’m not hugely knowledgeable on Spider-Man but isn’t it based mostly in Manhattan?

@CapGod

Don’t forget about…

I am the emissary from hell, SUPAIDAMAN!

Miles Morales just had an update on PS4 not sure if it added anything though

@OrtadragoonX

What???

@CapGod

Lol back in the day (the late 1970s) Marvel licensed Spiderman to Toei Company in Japan to make a series suitable for Japanese audiences; it was part of Marvel’s early efforts to branch out from comic books and attract international consumers.

Thing is that unlike today where licenses included clauses that restrict how you can use the character, the license for Japanese Spider-Man didn’t include such use clauses.

So Toei went absolutely nuts with the show and it basically turned into a Super Sentai series (it actually heavily influenced later Super Sentai series, like what would be used to become Power Rangers for the United States), complete with monsters of the week story telling, Spiderman having a “mega-zord” named Leopardon, having a machine gun toting car, and just being generally insane from start to finish.

Funniest part of the series to me was that around the middle of production the suit for Leopardon was stolen. The team didn’t have the budget to make another one (it was a super detailed full body suit) so they had to reuse footage of the early Leopardon fights for the rest of the series. That meant every single monster fight ended the same, with Spiderman yelling “SWORD VIGOR” in Engrish and Leopardon throwing the sword and destroying the monster.

If you’ve seen power rangers then the set up for Spider-Man Japan is exactly the same. There’s some plot establishing the monster of the week, some side character backstory, Supaidaman suffering some sort of mental and emotional crisis, a fight with the “putty patrol” equivalent villains, then the main antagonist of the series pulls out some new monster creation, Supaidaman and the monster fight, then the monster transforms into a bigger size, Supaidman calls up Leopardon, and then the fight I described earlier happens.

Also how he gets his powers is weird. Some alien dies on the pilot episode and gives him the legendary demon powers of the great spider or some nonsense like that. So Supaidaman often says “I am the emissary from hell, Supaidaman” when a new villain asks him who he is or what he’s about.

Until the community pressure starts up again.

too good to be true that itll come out before the holidays next year. its a november 2023 game that we have to wait our asses off for as usual .
