Following its panel at San Diego Comic-Con, Insomniac Games and PlayStation have released the story trailer for the highly anticipated PS5-exclusive title “Marvel’s Spider-Man 2”, due out in stores on October 20th.
In the game the Spider-Men, Peter Parker and Miles Morales, enter new chapters in their lives as they balance their responsibilities as protectors of Marvel’s New York.
As Harry Osborne, Peter’s best friend, returns to his life, and Miles looks to build his future beyond high school, the relationship between our heroes is tested and strained as the Symbiote appears to threaten them, the city, and the ones they love.
In addition, a 30-second spot has also been released showing off a “Spider-Man 2”-themed console being released around the same time. Talking about the game at the panel, those involved say Venom (voiced by Tony Todd) will have a “joyous quality in his destruction”.
Other reveals include that J Jonah Jameson has returned to running the Daily Bugle in the game, with Mary Jane now working for him.
The title marks Sony’s biggest exclusive for the year and goes up against a busy marketplace with “Super Mario Bros. Wonder” the same day; “Alan Wake II,” “Assassin’s Creed Mirage” and “Forza Motorsport” in the week or two before; and the “Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1” remaster and the “Alone in the Dark” reboot the week after.
