Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Trailer Dropped, Venom and Kraven Look Sick!
Yesterday, we got our first look at the story trailer for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, and it was fire. The trailer gave us a glimpse of the game’s two main villains, Venom and Kraven the Hunter, and it looks like they’re gonna be a major threat to Peter Parker and Miles Morales.
In the game, Venom will be a new character who has not been seen in the comics or movies before. This is a unique opportunity for Insomniac Games to create their own version of Venom, and it will be interesting to see how they approach the character.
It’s also worth noting that the symbiote in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is not the same symbiote that bonded with Eddie Brock in the comics. This means that the new Venom will have different powers and abilities than the classic version of the character.
We don’t know much about the new Venom yet, but we’re excited to learn more about them when Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is released.
What an exciting moment for PlayStation players, as the Insomniac team just wrapped up a captivating panel at San Diego Comic-Con with fantastic new reveals from Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. This includes a first look at the PS5 Console – Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Limited Edition Bundle, which features a custom PS5 console cover design and matching DualSense wireless controller.Play Video
We were thrilled to debut these stunning designs to our fans today because of how they capture the look and feel of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. The threat of Venom and the symbiote will be one of the most formidable challenges that our two Spider-Men will face in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. This is why we wanted to reflect the intensity of the symbiote and its capacity for transformation and power with a takeover design for the PS5 console and DualSense wireless controller.
The front cover of the PS5 shows the symbiote tendrils aggressively creeping closer to the Spider-Man icon, threatening to consume the last bit of the remaining red shining brightly through. The symbiote has completely bonded to the back of the PS5 console with the iconic white Spider-Man icon from Insomniac’s Advanced Suit on display. On the DualSense wireless controller, you can see a larger portion of the controller taken over by the symbiote design.
It’s been fantastic collaborating with the teams at Insomniac Games and Marvel on this new look for the PS5 console and DualSense controller. Here’s Senior Art Director Jacinda Chew, who shares her thoughts behind the design inspiration:
“The design was inspired by the in-game symbiote that’s taking over the console and controller, but you can still see some of the underlying red under the tendrils. This represents the various ways players will experience the symbiote takeover in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. It’s a constant push and pull for dominance whether it’s internal or external and the outcome is not certain.”– Jacinda Chew, Senior Art Director, Insomniac Games
We recognize the importance the symbiote holds, so we hope players can feel the inspiration behind this stunning design while they play Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. With the PS5 console’s Tempest 3D Audiotech, you can pinpoint the sounds from bio-electric powers, dangerous enemy attacks, and the bustling traffic of Marvel’s New York. As you travel across different parts of the city, the PS5 console’s ultra high-speed SSD enables you to experience near-instant character switching between Peter Parker and Miles Morales. And with the DualSense wireless controller, you’ll feel the action of web-swinging using the adaptive triggers, while haptic feedback provides responsive vibrations as you experience Peter Parker’s new symbiote abilities and Miles Morales’ evolved bio-electric skills.
The PS5 Console – Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Limited Edition Bundle includes a limited edition PS5 console, a limited edition DualSense wireless controller, and a voucher for a digital copy of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Standard Edition.
If you already own a PS5 console, we have great news for you, too. You can also purchase the PS5 Console Covers – Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Limited Edition, PS5 Digital Edition Console Covers – Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Limited Edition, and DualSense Wireless Controller – Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Limited Edition separately to add this bold new look to your current PS5 console.
Pre-orders will begin on July 28. Players in the U.S., U.K., France, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Austria, Portugal can also get this limited edition design directly from PlayStation at direct.playstation.com, or at other select retailers. These products will also be available in many other countries around the world in limited quantities at select retailers.
The PS5 Console – Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Limited Edition Bundle, PS5 Console Covers – Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Limited Edition, PS5 Digital Edition Console Covers – Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Limited Edition, and DualSense Wireless Controller – Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Limited Edition will be available starting September 1, ahead of the game’s official release.
For players purchasing the full PS5 bundle, the included game voucher can be redeemed when Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 releases on October 20. Players who purchase the bundle that has a voucher for the digital Standard Edition of the game will also get the same pre-order incentive items available to those who pre-order Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 – an early unlock Arachknight Suit for Peter with 3 additional color variants, an early unlock Shadow Spider Suit for Miles with 3 additional color variants, an early unlock Web Grabber gadget, and 3 skill points.
I hope you enjoy this new design! We can’t wait until Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 releases on October 20 when everyone can experience Peter Parker’s and Miles Morales’ incredible new adventure on PS5.
EA and Marvel Games Announce New Single-Player Black Panther Game
Electronic Arts (EA) and Marvel Games today announced a new single-player action-adventure game based on the Marvel Comics character Black Panther. The game, which is being developed by Cliffhanger Games, a new EA studio based in Seattle.
“We are thrilled to be working with Marvel Games to bring the world of Black Panther to life in a new and exciting way,” said Patrick Soderlund, Executive Vice President of EA Studios. “This game will allow players to experience the power and responsibility of being the Black Panther, and we are committed to crafting an authentic and immersive experience that honors the character and his rich history.”
The game will be set in the fictional African nation of Wakanda, and will feature a vast and reactive world that players can explore.
The Black Panther game is the first project from Cliffhanger Games. The studio is currently in the early stages of development, and is building a team of talented developers.
“We are looking for developers who are passionate about creating games that are both entertaining and meaningful,” said Burke. “We want to create a studio that is a welcoming and inclusive environment for all, and we are committed to making games that reflect the diversity of our world.”
Yo, Marvel finally dropped the trailer for their next show, Secret Invasion, and it’s looking fire! We got Nick Fury, Talos, Emilia Clarke, Kingsley Ben-Adir, and a whole bunch of other characters we don’t recognize. It looks like the Skrulls are up to something, and it’s not good. I can’t wait to see what happens.
