Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is the third installment of Sony Interactive Entertainment and Insomniac Games’ very popular Spider-Man game series and it drops on Thursday (Oct. 20).
Available for pre-order for $69-$70 on Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart and Target, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 for PS5 finds Peter Parker and Miles Morales joining forces to defeat Kraven The Hunter, who has claimed Manhattan as his latest hunting ground.
Additionally, Sony is bundling the new game with a limited-edition Spider-Man and Venom PlayStation 5 console (disc edition) — which is available at Best Buy for $600.
As for the game itself, this is a new open-world action adventure game with an expanded map from the first two games in the franchise. This time gamers can explore Brooklyn and Queens, in addition to Manhattan, while they can switch freely between playing as Parker or Morales at any point. There are new abilities to use, including Web Wings, Parker’s Symbiote suit and more.
It also features Spider-Man mainstays, such as Venom, Lizard, Sandman, Mary Jane Watson, J. Jonah Jameson, Rio Morales, Norman Osborn and others.
This is the “Launch Edition” of the game, which comes with a number of upgrades, suits and bonuses that are already unlocked for gamers. These include Peter Parker’s Arachknight Suit, Miles Morales’ Shadow-Spider Suit, the Web Grabber Gadget and much more.
Meanwhile, Sony and Marvel have partnered with Adidas for the Peter Parker Advanced Suit and Venom collection, which features new Ultra 4D (for men and women) and Ultraboost J (for kids) sneakers with Spider-Man red and blue colorways and Venom black midsoles.
They look as if Venom is slowly taking over Spidey. The collection — which also features football cleats, sweatshirts, compression tights and more — is also available for purchase on Oct. 20 (click here for early access).
In fact, Marvel has also partnered with Warby Parker for new pairs of Spider-Man-inspired frames, BAIT for new Spidey and Venom tees, Wheaties for new cereal boxes and other brands.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 for PS5 drops on Oct. 20 for $69-$70. It’s available for pre-order now.
