The trailer that was released on July 20 had Marvel and Spider-Man lovers thrilled to be able to witness new characters like Miles Morales or the villain, Venom, who weren’t present in Marvel’s Spider-Man 1 game.
The PlayStation 5 exclusive video game has fans eager to see what new features and game mechanics are heading their way. In this new game, you will witness the adventures of Miles Morales and Peter Parker on a mission to save New York while facing the ultimate test of strength, including the need to balance their lives as superheroes and regular citizens. The video game goes into detail about how each superhero will experience change and personal growth.
The PS5 announcement highlights that Spider-Man 2 offers a new and enhanced gameplay experience with multiple improvements, distinguishing it from the first game that was released in 2018.
