Recently, Insomniac Games took to X, formerly Twitter, to share an update on the next major release for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. The developer revealed in their announcement that much-awaited features such as New Game+ and Audio Descriptions, along with many other updates are still under development. Insomniac Games is now targeting an early 2024 release for the next massive update for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.
Over two months have passed since the latest installment in the web-slinging action-adventure series launched for PlayStation 5. In the past few weeks, Insomniac Games has rolled out several updates for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, primarily addressing game-breaking bugs while also introducing new features. Despite the consistent stream of updates, the New Game+ mode for Spider-Man 2 remains eagerly anticipated by many players.
The original 2018 Marvel’s Spider-Man introduced its New Game+ mode merely a month after it launched. In retrospect, the first game’s New Game Plus mode allows players to replay the game’s story from the beginning using all suits, powers, gadgets, mods, and benchmarks they’ve unlocked in a previous playthrough.
The sequel, however, did not receive a New Game+ mode immediately. Insomniac Games did confirm before the release of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 that the feature was planned, although it would be released sometime after launch. Insomniac Games’ Marketing Director, James Stevenson, previously mentioned that the New Game+ mode should arrive by the end of this year, but it now appears that this is no longer the case.
The recent announcement has certainly fueled considerable excitement among fans, as they await not only the New Game+ mode but also what Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has in store for them next year. However, the future remains uncertain, and plans are subject to change. Without a specific release date for the impending update, fans eagerly await further announcements from Insomniac Games to confirm if the early 2024 release target will push through.
