Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 swings onto PC in January as Insomniac says no more story content is coming – WGB
Sony has announced that the hugely successful Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 will land on PC in January of 2025.
Aaron Jason Espinoza, Senior Community Manager at Insomniac Games, made the announcement in an official PlayStation Blog post, revealing that Sony-owned porting house Nixxes will be handling the project.
“Bringing Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales to a new audience on PC together with Insomniac and Marvel Games has been a great experience for us at Nixxes,” says Julian Huijbregts, Community Manager at Nixxes. “We are excited to continue this collaboration and bring Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 to PC with a suite of enhanced features, including enhanced ray-tracing options, to take full advantage of a variety of setups and configurations. Stay tuned for more details on features and recommended specs closer to launch.”
“Our amazing partners at Nixxes have once again done an incredible job bringing the world of Marvel’s Spider-Man to PC players,” says Mike Fitzgerald, Core Technology Director at Insomniac. “Our team put a lot of love into this game, and we’re excited that it will soon be enjoyed by a whole new audience with keyboard and mouse controls, ultra widescreen support, and numerous graphical options that make it feel at home on their platform.”
Unfortunately the blog post did not confirm what, if any, upgrades the PC version will get, although we can probably assume the usual suite of options such as widescreen support, higher framerates, DLSS and so on.
The blog post also confirmed that no new story content for Spider-Man 2 is planned.
“While we have no additional story content planned for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, we’re delighted to bring all of our previously released post-launch content to the PC version, including New Game+, new suits and color variants, Photo Mode features, and more.”
Sony will be hoping for a win here as their past couple of PC releases haven’t do so well. The remake of Until Dawn launched day 1 on Steam but peaked at a measly 2,607 players, and before that Concord crashed and burned.
