At this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Insomniac Games held a panel to talk about Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. In the panel, the studio released a new trailer for the game, and also gave fans a look at the Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 limited edition PS5 bundle.
Check out the trailer alongside details on the limited edition PS5.
“At the beginning of our story, our Spider-Men are at the top of their game,” said Paquette. “But both Peter Parker and Miles Morales are struggling with their personal lives. Miles is trying to find time to write his college entrance essay, but he keeps procrastinating and focusing on Spider-Work instead. Meanwhile, Peter is underwater on payments for Aunt May’s house, but he can’t sell, it means too much to him. And just like Miles, Peter tries (and fails) to find balance with so many responsibilities. MJ wants to help Pete with the mortgage, but her job is on the line now that J. Jonah Jameson is back at the Bugle and looking to clean house. Our heroes have arrived at a confluence of crossroads, with uncertain futures, and some tough decisions ahead.”
When Kraven’s hunters arrive in the city, it sets off a mystery of why they are there and who, and what, they are hunting. But as the Spider-Men and MJ dig deeper into Kraven’s motivations, the symbiote begins to threaten Marvel’s New York and everyone and everything they hold dear.
In addition tot he new story trailer, Insomniac Games also revealed our first look at the Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Collector’s Edition statue! It show Venom fighting both Peter and Miles, and just looks marvelous.
Speaking of Venom, here’s what the studio had to share about their interpretation of the character:
Our Venom was inspired by the comics, but there have been so many interpretations that it was fun to pick and choose what fits the game,” said Chew. “He has a unique take on the white spider icon and has the anatomy of a human. He also has powerful tendril attacks that can take many forms. It was challenging to find the right balance between liquid and solid in Venom’s materials as going too watery makes him look weak and going too solid can quickly turn him into a tentacle monster. Venom must look both powerful and semi liquid at the same time.”
Finally, the studio showed off the Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 limited edition PS5 bundle! Check out the trailer and details below.
