Insomniac’s PS4 exclusive has a date and new story details.
Insomniac Games’ Spider-Man PS4 game, seemingly simply called Marvel Spider-Man, will be released in 2018, and will feature Ultimate Spider-Man, Miles Morales as well as Peter Parker.
An extended gameplay trailer at Sony’s E3 press conference showed off some of Spider-Man’s abilities, takedowns and (most importantly) wisecracks.
The demo also showed that Wilson Fisk, aka Kingpin will be a character, as well as a gang called the Demons, led by Mister Negative, Martin Li. A character called Capt. Watanabe also appears to be the character currently known as Wraith in Marvel’s comics.
Insomniac first revealed its new Spider-Man game at last year’s Sony E3 press conference, saying the footage was running in-game, in-engine on the current, base PS4 technology.
Marvel Games Creative Director Bill Rosemann spoke to IGN earlier this year about how the company is aiming to tell original stories with its upcoming games rather than holding developers to established canon.
Marvel Games’ other projects include Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Series, Marvel Vs. Capcom: Infinite, and The Avengers project from Square Enix.
