Perhaps before Insomniac thinks any further about a potential Spider-Man 3, they should spend a little time polishing Spider-Man 2. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 players noticed a careless mistake in Miles’ apartment over the past weekend: despite Miles’ Puerto Rican heritage, a Cuban flag is hanging in the hallway of his home.

First spotted by TheHouselessTurtle over on the SpiderManPS5_ subreddit, Miles’ apartment contains a flag decoration on the wall near the entrance. The flag, however, is Cuban, not Puerto Rican. While the two are similar, Puerto Rico’s flag features red stripes and a blue triangle, whereas Cuba’s flag has reversed colors.
Twitter users were quick to point this error out and tag Insomniac Games directly, hoping to get some feedback on the issue. Thankfully, Insomniac’s Director of Community and Marketing James Stevenson was quick to respond to a tweet about the faulty flag with a promised fix:
Fix is coming for that

For such a high-level team to make such a significant mistake is surprising. It almost seems to undermine any attempts to be true to Miles’ Puerto Rican culture when they can’t even bother to include the proper flag. Regardless, it’s good to see that a fix is coming. Better late than never, I suppose.
We’ll be sure to let our readers know when the patch hits the game. In the meantime, stay tuned in to us here at MP1st to stay up to date on all things Spider-Man.

I mean, it was an honest mistake that can be fixed with an update “everyone makes mistakes”
I personally haven’t encountered any bugs or glitches during my play through, that’s impressive considering the scale of the map. Most open world free roam sandbox games are full of bugs and glitches.
