Marvel's Spider-Man 2

Two Spider-Men, one city

Developed by Insomniac Games and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 launched on PS5 on 20 October 2023, then on PC on 30 January 2025 in a port by Nixxes Software. Players switch freely between Peter Parker and Miles Morales in a New York expanded to Brooklyn and Queens, with web wings for gliding, Peter’s symbiote powers and Miles’ bio-electric abilities against Kraven, the Lizard and Venom.

What the press says

On PS5, Push Square (8/10) sees a confident sequel that builds on the series in practically every way: thrilling swinging and gliding, improved combat and stealth, much better side content and plenty of surprising moments, making it Insomniac’s best Spidey game yet; it has minor criticisms of the story and finds combat repetitive eventually. TheSixthAxis (9/10, PS5) calls it a fantastic sequel that builds on its predecessor’s excellent foundations and drives its characters forward, with faster traversal and a growing suite of combat abilities, but feels it doesn’t quite capture Venom’s anti-hero tone and that Miles’ story feels less important than Peter’s.
