Besides the newly announced Wolverine video game, Insomniac Games has more Marvel titles to come on the PlayStation 5. Insomniac is also going to return to the iconic friendly neighborhood Spider-Man series the studio first found so much success with in 2018. Insomniac revealed Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 at today’s PlayStation Showcase 2021. The new action game is currently in the works as a PlayStation 5 exclusive.

Based on the reveal teaser trailer at the PS Showcase, it appears both Miles Morales and Peter Parker will be heavily featured in the game and teaming up as their own Spider-Man alter-egos. The voice-over narration obviously hints at Kraven the Hunter, who is looking for a worthy challenge. However, the end of the teaser shows Miles and Peter coming face-to-face with Venom, who appears to be answering Kraven’s call for a challenger capable of beating him.

Much of the development team behind 2018’s Spider-Man game has returned for Spider-Man 2. The new action-adventure game will feature a new cast of characters coming into to the world of Spider-Man, along with a new storyline. Yuri Lowenthal and Nadij Jeter will reprise their respective roles as Peter Parker and Miles Morales. Meanwhile, Tony Todd of Candyman fame joins the cast, and he will be voicing the iconic Venom.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is due out as a PS5 exclusive title in 2023. You can check out the reveal teaser trailer below:
