More than a year has passed since the development of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 was revealed, what has happened with this new Marvel and Playstation title?
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 was announced in 2021 at a PlayStation virtual event, where they revealed news of what was to come for the PS5. The arachnid was one of the most famous revelations due to his return with a sequel to the 2018 title.
After more than a year, there is no news, or so it was believed. We are going to tell you everything we know about the video game developed by Insomniac Games that has a release date for this 2023.
the first trailer
The only official glimpse we have in the preview shown by PlayStation, where we see Peter Parker as Spider-Man fighting criminals. He is accompanied by Miles Morales, and together they collaborate in battle. Narrating the advance we have a mysterious voice that due to its Russian accent we can think of Kraven The Hunter, but it is not confirmed.
Without showing much more, the trailer ends up relieving Venom as one of the threats to face. It is not known who is wearing the symbiote suit, we only know that the alien villain will be present.
According to the official PlayStation blog, venom will be played by Tony Todd (known for the Candyman tapes), and this is key to understanding what happens with the video game.
What do we know?
The trailer reveals that the title is coming out in 2023, but since its reveal, Insomniac Games and PlayStation have remained silent. In the blog post they mention that the creative team from the first game is back, Bryan Intihar and Ryan Smith, creative director and game director, respectively.
we also know that yuri lowenthal come back like Peter Parkerwhile Nadji Jeter he does the same with Miles Morales.
In late March of this year, Tony Todd answered a tweet where it revealed that the game comes out in September, and that the advertising should start in August. After a few minutes, deleted the answer.
“It seems like September! The massive publicity in August. The commercials will start appearing in August, I am told. Hold on to your… and hold your breath! it will be necessary” You mentioned in your answer.

Is the launch really close?
We must bear in mind that variant covers of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 were released last year in comics that celebrated the spider’s 60th anniversary, which have the design of the second game, which changes slightly compared to the first. At the same time, they reference old Spidey covers.
