Insomniac Games has reassured fans that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 remains on course for its previously scheduled 2023 release date.
Though Insomniac Games unveiled the title during PlayStation’s September 2021 games showcase, very little is known about Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.
A teaser trailer accompanied the surprise announcement, as did a 2023 release window for PS5. In the year since then, however, the sequel has remained off the radar.
Fans have high hopes that news will surface sometime soon, yet Sony’s caginess about a new showcase, along with Insomniac’s continued silence, doesn’t instill much hope.

Don't. We're making good progress and it's still slated for 2023. Showing games takes time, effort, resources, and coordination.

Details about when the sequel will resurface remain publicly unknown, but those looking forward to Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 can at least rest assured that it remains locked in for a 2023 release date.
Notably, the new game will star both Peter Parker and Miles Morales, with Venom counting as one of its antagonists.
Voiceover from last year’s teaser footage leads many to believe that famous Spider-Man rogue Kraven the Hunter may play also play a significant role in the overarching plot.
