Marvel’s Spider Man 2 will launch on October 20

We got the box art too

The fun part of a showcase like Summer Game Fest is seeing how each game handles its reveals. Some opt for grandiose trailers to tingle our imaginations. But in the case of Marvel’s Spider Man 2, it needs no such fanfare. They simply had game director Bryan Intihar come on stage, talk about a few details, and then boom, it’s releasing on October 20, 2023. The crowd goes wild.

While a simple release date could stand on its own as a major reveal, we also gleaned some juicy new details about the upcoming PS5 exclusive. For example, Venom is “not Eddie Brock,” as Intihar asserts that the team wanted to tell an original story with this title. Additionally, we also received news that the city “pretty much doubled in size.” Pretty exciting! It’s a tough act to follow a huge critical hit like the original Marvel’s Spider Man, but it seems the team at Insomniac Games wants to surpass all expectations.

Stay tuned as we learn any additional details about Marvel’s Spider Man 2.
