Currently, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is rumored to be released in September or November 20th, 2023. Insomniac Games and PlayStation are keeping the tension on the exact date, but we’ll likely find out more over the summer. . And to wait until the release, the game’s creative director Bryan Intihar revealed some new features. A disproportionate trip to New York awaits players.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 map will be huge
That’s what the developers at Insomniac Games (Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart) want to do Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
For Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, a PS5 exclusive, teams have practically doubled the playing field by adding the boroughs of Queens and Brooklyn. “We’ve added Queens and Brooklyn this time, so the map size is about double what it was in previous games. Knowing that both areas are smaller residential areas, I think they will be different from Manhattan. We invented some unexpected situations, like this battle at the straits between two cities.”.
A huge open world that needs to be filled with quests and it will be. The open world of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 will be filled with missions dedicated to Peter Parker, Miles Morales or either of them. “We have content for Peter, content for Miles, and content for both of you to play. In the open world, you can freely switch between them with the press of a button. Being able to switch between characters so quickly is really awesome.”
These skills are also shared by Peter Parker and Miles Morales
As Bryan Intihar explains, in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 the player can easily switch from Peter Parker to Miles Morales… but not always. During the main story missions, it is the studio that makes this change for staging and script reasons. The famous sequence from the PlayStation Showcase trailer is the perfect illustration. “As you saw during the gameplay reveal that is a part of the main story, we are setting this change in advance. And that depending on what we want to do for the development of the scenario »
That closeness between Peter Parker and Miles Morales will carry over to superhero abilities as well. There will be three skill trees: one for Peter, one for Miles and one for both. “We want to make sure there is a sense of familiarity as you transition from one to the other. Both are Spider-Man. You know how to play, but there’s also the flexibility to customize to enhance each game with its own skill tree. We saw during the presentation that Miles has Venom’s evolved powers and Peter has those of the symbiote. adds the creative director of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. Two ways to play one truly impressive sequel, according to Jim Ryan, who wouldn’t say otherwise.
