Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is a 2023 action-adventure game developed by Insomniac Games and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment. Based on the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man, it features a narrative inspired by the long-running comic book mythology while also deriving from various adaptations in other media. It is the third entry in the Marvel's Spider-Man series, acting as a sequel to Marvel's Spider-Man (2018) and a follow-up to Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales (2020). In this installment, Peter Parker and Miles Morales struggle to navigate the next steps in their personal lives while combating an assortment of villains, among them a private militia of mercenaries led by Kraven the Hunter, the sand-based criminal Sandman, the monstrous Lizard, and the extraterrestrial Venom symbiote, which bonds itself to Parker and negatively influences him, threatening to destroy his personal relationships.

Gameplay builds on the foundation established by its predecessors, with an emphasis on the multiple playstyles afforded by Peter Parker and Miles Morales as their respective Spider-Men. The game expands on their existing traversal and combat abilities, including new web-based gadgets and suits that can be unlocked through progressing the story, as well as introducing the former Spider-Man's symbiote suit, granting Parker completely unique abilities from his previous playable appearance. As with the prior games, content outside the main story route consists of completing side-missions and obtaining collectibles dispersed throughout the game's open world sandbox, with the player able to switch between Parker and Morales to complete dedicated objectives for each of them.

Discussions regarding a proper sequel to Marvel's Spider-Man began during the game's development, with open story threads for future titles being teased across both it and Miles Morales. The game was officially announced in September 2021. Creative director Bryan Intihar, game director Ryan Smith, narrative lead Jon Paquette and art director Jacinda Chew from Insomniac Games respectively reprise their duties from prior entries, while Yuri Lowenthal, Nadji Jeter and Laura Bailey return to headline the game's ensemble voice cast, which comprises other returning actors and characters from the previous games. Jim Pirri and Tony Todd join the ensemble as the voices of Kraven and Venom, respectively.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 was released for the PlayStation 5 on October 20, 2023.

Gameplay

See also: Spider-Man (2018 video game) § Gameplay, and Spider-Man: Miles Morales § Gameplay

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will be an action-adventure single-player[1] video game played in a third-person perspective. As with the first game and Miles Morales, Parker and Morales are the two main characters, becoming individually playable in accordance with the story as they traverse an open world New York City and fight enemies.[2] Players can acquire new abilities and collect various Spider-Man suits. Peter and Miles are able to be freely swapped between at any point during free-roam in the game's open world, but will have dedicated missions both in the main story and as part of side content that specifically take advantage of their individual traits.[3]

Building on the combat system of the previous titles, both Spider-Men are able to parry physical attacks as certain enemy types are impervious to dodging. During traversal, both Peter and Miles' new suits come equipped with Web Wings, which when deployed allow them to glide across the city, with their speed and distance covered increasing when they take advantage of areas such as wind tunnels. Each Spider-Man's gadget wheel has also been upgraded with additional equippable mods for their web-shooters, such as being able to cast a Web Line across pillars for additional footing during stealth sequences suspended above enemies, and the Web Grabber, allowing multiple enemies to be pulled into an isolated spot for Stealth Takedowns, which can now be performed on two enemies at once. In addition to Peter Parker's standard gameplay, he will also be playable when bonded to the Venom symbiote, granting him tendrils that he uses during combat, and unique web-based abilities.[4] Both Spider-Men have individual Skill Trees with additional unlockable abilities for both of them to peruse once they accumulate enough Skill Points in accordance with their experience level, as well as a third Skill Tree dedicated to shared abilities between the two of them.[5][6]

Synopsis

Characters and setting

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is set nine months after the events of Spider-Man: Miles Morales (2020).[7] As with previous installments in the series, the game features a large ensemble cast of various characters that are derived from the history of Spider-Man comics and other media. Yuri Lowenthal and Nadji Jeter reprise their respective roles as protagonists Peter Parker / Spider-Man and Miles Morales / Spider-Man from Spider-Man (2018) and Spider-Man: Miles Morales. Other cast members reprising their roles include Laura Bailey as Mary Jane Watson, Darin De Paul as J. Jonah Jameson, Jacqueline Piñol as Rio Morales, Griffin Puatu as Ganke Lee, Mark Rolston as Norman Osborn, and Stephen Oyoung as Martin Li / Mister Negative. Tony Todd provides the voice and motion capture for Venom, an extraterrestrial symbiote capable of bonding to human bodies as hosts. Jim Pirri voices and motion captures the character Sergei Kravinoff / Kraven the Hunter, the leader of a faction of mercenaries called the "Hunters", whose members include Maxwell Markham / Grizzly, and who seeks to hunt superpowered beings including the Spider-Men.[8] Tara Platt will reprise her role from Spider-Man as Yuri Watanabe, a disgraced former police captain and ally of Peter Parker, who now assumes the vigilante identity of "Wraith" following the events of the game's DLC campaign, The City That Never Sleeps.[9] Mark Whitten portrays Curt Connors / Lizard, a former Oscorp scientist who turned himself into a giant reptilian creature;[10] Connors previously made a brief appearance in the mid-credits scene of Miles Morales.[11] Additional antagonists who were previously referenced in the prior entries make full appearances throughout the game's story, including Flint Marko / Sandman, a lowly burglar who through an accident, gained the ability to turn himself into molecules of sand and manipulate them at will, and Quentin Beck / Mysterio, a visual effects artist who is leveraging virtual reality to create deadly illusions.[12][7] Harry Osborn, now motion captured and voiced by Graham Phillips after originally being voiced by Scott Porter in Spider-Man, will also appear in the game in a more prominent role after making brief cameo appearances in both Spider-Man and Miles Morales.[13]

The game expands the prior entries' New York City open world, such as Brooklyn and Queens as accessible boroughs during the main story campaign and while free-roaming in the game's open-world sandbox, instead of solely being restricted to Manhattan.[14]

Development

Both the first game and its spin-off title Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales (2020) included implicit teases toward future titles, including post-credits scenes alluding to Insomniac Games' intentions to introduce Venom into their narrative, as well as feature Norman Osborn and his son Harry in more prominent roles.[15] Intihar later stated that Insomniac Games had discussed including the Black Suit as an unlockable costume during the development of the first game, but a meeting with Insomniac art director Gavin Goulden, Marvel Games vice president Bill Rosemann and senior director Eric Monacelli, convinced them that the symbiote would have to play a more significant role in their Spider-Man story to justify its inclusion.[16] When unveiling Miles Morales at Sony's PlayStation 5 reveal event in June 2020, Insomniac stated that a standalone title featuring Miles as the protagonist would not detract from the fact they had "much of Peter's story left to tell" in future games.[17]

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and sister title Marvel's Wolverine were jointly announced by Insomniac Games at the PlayStation Showcase event in September 2021.[18] Bryan Intihar and Ryan Smith serve as the game's creative and game directors, respectively reprising their roles from Marvel's Spider-Man,[1] while Yuri Lowenthal, Nadji Jeter, and Tony Todd star as Peter Parker, Miles Morales, and Venom, respectively.[19] Speaking on the This Week in Marvel podcast, Bill Rosemann described the game's narrative as "a little darker", as well as "the next big chapter". He likened the story's tone to The Empire Strikes Back (1980), contrasted with how Marvel's Spider-Man's narrative felt tonally similar to the original Star Wars (1977).[20]

In January 2022, Brittney Morris, who previously wrote the Miles Morales tie-in novel Wings of Fury, joined the writing team on the game;[21] and in June freelance artist Davison Carvalho was hired to serve as the game's art director. Carvalho had notably also served as a concept artist for various Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) films.[22] That November, actor Scott Porter, who voiced Harry Osborn throughout the Research Station activities in the first game, revealed that he was recast in Marvel's Spider-Man 2 to accommodate the character's more prominent role in the story, addressing potential issues such as the age gap between himself and the character as "they decided to go photorealistic".[23] Actor Graham Phillips was later announced to take over the role of Osborn from Porter during San Diego Comic-Con in July 2023.[13]

Lowenthal also discussed his portrayal of Peter Parker as he is under the influence of the Venom symbiote, citing "behaviors of addiction" as a major inspiration on how he would differentiate his two vocal performances at different points in the game. He additionally likened his delivery as Symbiote Spider-Man to his time voicing the character Sasuke Uchiha in the anime series Naruto, which was a stark contrast in tone to the "plucky young heroes" he was used to playing due to Sasuke's comparatively downbeat personality, and having to "dig a little bit" to emulate the character's angst.[24][25] The game would not depict Eddie Brock as the symbiote's host, a deviation from the majority of Spider-Man media featuring the character. Intihar cited a desire to tell an original story that stood apart from both the comics and various films featuring Venom while respecting the roots of the character.[26] Intihar asserted that they never intend to interpret a character so differently from other appearances at the risk of alienating fans, but they did want to provide a unique take on the material that felt tied to their franchise, citing the creative liberties taken with Peter Parker's Advanced Suit in the first game as an example, and how despite the adherence to classic elements like the red and blue color scheme, the enlarged, white spider emblem on the suit's chest distinguished the character as Insomniac's version of Spider-Man among other adaptations.[16] The game had gone gold in late September, one month before release.[27]

Marketing

The game's official gameplay reveal debuted during Sony Interactive Entertainment's PlayStation Showcase event in May 2023, highlighting a mission within the game's main story campaign that showed Peter Parker adorning the symbiote suit, and Miles Morales / Spider-Man, as the pair intercepted an attempt by Kraven's Hunters to capture Dr. Curt Connors as his transformation into the Lizard resulted in him breaking into a fish market near the New York City docks.[28] As part of the game's promotion, a separate splice of gameplay was featured in a scene from the film Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023), which depicted Miles Morales' roommate Ganke Lee playing the game on his PlayStation 5 console at their dorm. The sequence showed Peter Parker / Spider-Man initiating a takedown on a common thug using the spider-leg appendages equipped at the back of his new Advanced Suit.[29] Concept art of the Spider-Men combatting both Kraven the Hunter and Venom was presented at Summer Game Fest 2023, where creative director Bryan Intihar appeared as a guest to discuss the game's story and unveil the game's launch date and box art.[30] The game's main theme, "Greater Together" composed by John Paesano, was previewed at The Game Awards 10-Year Concert in June 2023, and was released on music streaming services shortly thereafter.[31] Intihar, along with producer Bill Rosemann from Marvel Games, Lowenthal, Jeter, Bailey and Todd, presented a Hall H panel at San Diego Comic-Con in July 2023, titled "Symbiotic Relationships". The panel divulged further story and character details and was accompanied by the debut of a story trailer, and the unveiling of commemorative PlayStation 5 console bundles and accessories to coincide with the game's launch.[32] A gameplay overview narrated by creative director Bryan Intihar was featured as part of the PlayStation State of Play presentation in September 2023, in conjunction with preview events being held for media journalists in Los Angeles, where more extensive demos and playable builds of the game were showcased.[33] The game's launch trailer was released online on October 15, 2023 during New York Comic Con.[34]

Tie-in media and merchandise

A tie-in prequel comic was released by Marvel Comics on Free Comic Book Day in May 2023, written by Marvel's Spider-Man writer Christos Gage and illustrated by Ig Guara. Taking place after the events of Miles Morales, the narrative features Peter Parker, Miles Morales and Mary Jane Watson struggling to balance their individual responsibilities and the former's respective duties to New York as Spider-Men, and features The Hood as its main antagonist, who is attempting to procure an allegedly ancient tablet inscrypted with magic tomes to resuscitate his dying mother. The game's narrative director and Marvel's Spider-Man co-writer Jon Paquette elaborated on the writing team's interest in introducing The Hood for the comic, stating that they were interested in exploring the idea of the two Spider-Men having to confront a threat with powers beyond their understanding.[35][36][37]

Release

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is scheduled to release for the PlayStation 5 on October 20, 2023.[38]

Alongside the standard edition, a Digital Deluxe Edition is set to be available for the game. This edition features two sets of five unique suits for Peter Parker and Miles Morales, designed by guest artists from PlayStation Studios and the wider entertainment industry. It also includes additional frames, stickers for the in-game Photo Mode, and two extra skill points for ability unlocks. A Collector's Edition will be distributed through participating retailers and PlayStation Direct. It contains a download voucher for the Digital Deluxe Edition, a steel bookcase, and a 19-inch display statue depicting the Spider-Men fighting Venom. All pre-orders, regardless of edition, come with early unlock bonuses: the "Arachknight Suit" for Peter Parker and "Shadow-Spider Suit" for Miles Morales, the Web Grabber gadget, and three additional skill points.[39]

To commemorate the game's launch, Sony Interactive Entertainment distributed a special edition PlayStation 5 console bundle themed after the game on September 1, 2023. It is a variant of the standard PlayStation 5 sporting custom face plates and a unique DualSense controller design based on the imagery of the Venom symbiote wrapping itself around a red gradient adorning Peter Parker's Spider-Man emblem. Insomniac Games art director Jacinda Chew remarked on this design being evocative of the various ways players experience the symbiote taking over Peter in the game's story, describing it as a "constant push and pull for dominance whether it's internal or external and the outcome is not certain."[40] The console comes with a digital voucher for the game's Standard Edition for pre-load ahead of launch. The face plates and special DualSense controller will also be sold as separate accessories for existing owners of both the disc-based and Digital Edition PS5 consoles.[41]

Reception

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 received "universal acclaim" from critics, according to review aggregator website Metacritic.[42]

Significant praise was directed towards the narrative and characterization of the primary cast. Gene Park, writing for The Washington Post, applauded the development and increasing tension between Peter Parker and Miles Morales, as well as the former's friendship with Harry Osborn, noting that it was pushed as far as possible in a fashion that was "satisfying to watch."[60] Matt Miller from Game Informer highlighted the story's effectiveness at deriving from philosophical concepts associated with heroism against villainy, recognizing the game's ability to pull from "questions about returning from a dark place and having another chance, no matter past mistakes." Miller also praised the game's effectiveness as an installment in a larger trilogy of games, able to standalone but is "made better by experiencing its entirety."[48] In their 10/10 review of the game, Inverse directed praise towards the developer's seamless blend of ongoing narrative with the game mechanics, exemplifying the use of flashback sequences to teach the player about fundamental mechanics such as stealth and puzzle-solving, as well as the game's variation between quieter character-building, the minigames, and hallmark set-pieces during action sequences.[61]
