Insomniac Games will correct a flag error in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 in a future patch.
Shortly after the game’s launch, social media posts noted that one of its main characters, Miles Morales’ in-game residence features a Cuban flag. The young superhero and his family are Puerto Rican.
In response to a user who asked about the mistake, Insomniac’s director of community and marketing, James Stevenson, said, “Fix is coming for that.”
Puerto Rico’s flag features five horizontal stripes: three red, two white, and a blue triangle on the left side, where a star is centered. Meanwhile, the flag of Cuba has five horizontal stripes: three blue, two white, and a red triangle on the left side, where a star is centered.
Meanwhile, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 sold 2.5 million units within 24 hours. It was also number one in the UK’s physical charts, making it the biggest PS5 boxed launch for the year.
