Insomniac Games has released at least one new video game every year since 2018. In 2018, it releasedMarvel’s Spider-Manto widespread critical acclaim, in 2019 it released the VR titleStormland, and then in 2020, Insomniac launchedSpider-Man: Miles Moralesas a PS5 launch title. And now it seems that the wait for the nextSpider-Mangame may actually be shorter than expected, as it appearsSpider-Man 2actors are already doing mocap work for the game.
Nadji Jeter, who playedMiles Morales inSpider-ManandSpider-Man: Miles Morales, recently posted an image online of him in mocap gear. It didn’t take long for the image to be deleted, but not before fans were able to screenshot it. Now, it’s entirely possible that Nadji Jeter is doing mocap for a completely different video game or an entirely unrelated project, but the most likely scenario is that this is forSpider-Man 2on PS5.

While some may be surprised thatSpider-Man 2would already be at this point in production, it’s worth pointing out that the game has likely been in active development for years now. Insomniac Games juggles multiple projects at a time, which is how it’s regularly released new games on a near-annual basis over the years. Considering this, it’s entirely within the realm of possibility that theSpider-Man 2game will drop in 2022 or 2023, despite bothRatchet & Clank: Rift ApartandSpider-Man: Miles Moralesreleasing just months ago.
Please note that the rest of this article will have MAJOR SPOILERS forMarvel’s Spider-Man.
As for whatSpider-Man 2will entail, that remains to be seen. Those that managed to beat the 2018Spider-Mangame know that it’s quite likely theSymbiote Suit will play a role inSpider-Man 2, as will the Green Goblin. Whether or not famousSpider-Manvillain Venom makes an appearance or if he is saved for a potential third game in the series is up for debate, and fans won’t know until Insomniac shares more about the game.
As it stands, it will likely be quite some time before Insomniac pulls the curtain back onSpider-Man 2. Right now PlayStation is focused on exclusives likeDeathloop,Horizon: Forbidden West,Ghostwire: Tokyo, andGod of War: Ragnarok. One has to imagine that the attention will remain on those games for the time being, so fans may not get to seeSpider-Man 2until next year or later.
While they wait for more news,Spider-Manfans can work onunlocking all ofSpider-Man: Miles Morales' trophiesand getting 100% in the original game if they haven’t done so already.
Spider-Man 2is rumored to be in development.
