About This Game
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 for PlayStation is an action-adventure single-player game featuring both Miles Morales and Peter Parker as the iconic superhero. This title is the third installment in the series, following 2018’s Marvel’s Spider-Man and 2020’s Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
Game Overview
The story picks up nine months after the previous game, with our two heroes struggling to manage their lives while facing a diverse array of villains. Each character is playable (eventually), allowing players to explore New York, earn new skills, and collect various Spider-Man suits, each boasting a unique design.
Players can freely switch between the two characters while roaming the open-world environment of New York. However, each Spider-Man has distinct missions that contribute to the overall story arc. Peter Parker gains an additional gameplay feature by being playable while bonded with Venom, the black-suited symbiote. This connection grants him enhanced combat abilities but complicates his personal life, leading to various disruptions.
In this game, players can swing through not only Manhattan but also the beautifully detailed areas of Queens and Brooklyn. The main antagonist is Kraven the Hunter, who aims to create a twisted game for himself by unleashing a series of supervillains for his own enjoyment, disregarding the safety of the city's inhabitants.
Gameplay Dynamics
The gameplay remains familiar, featuring increasingly challenging battles against villains. Both Spider-Men utilize webs, gadgets, and clever tactics to succeed, with players able to execute sweeping attacks, powerful kicks, and even summon lightning to defeat foes. Mastering the various button combos is essential for effective combat.
As players progress, they earn XP and tokens that can be exchanged for suit upgrades and skills, enhancing their combat effectiveness. Numerous side quests appear throughout the game, providing opportunities for XP and tokens. Completionists will want to tackle every quest, while others may focus on those that offer the best rewards.
Brooklyn and Queens offer stunning environments, complete with waterfront factories, charming neighborhoods, and picturesque brownstone houses. Both Spider-Men can use a wingsuit to glide across the city, taking in the view while swinging through the air. The game features fourteen distinct districts, with fast travel options available, though exploring the city as Spider-Man is often more enjoyable.
The ability to glide takes advantage of the city’s wind tunnels, allowing Spider-Man to soar high above the skyscrapers and admire the art deco architecture.
The Nitty-Gritty
The standout feature of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is the ability to switch between Peter Parker and Miles Morales, each possessing unique skills and play styles. With the addition of the symbiote, players can enjoy three distinct gameplay experiences.
The game is packed with side quests, mini-missions, and two primary storylines—one for each Spider-Man. Web-slinging mechanics have been upgraded, enabling stealth movements and double takedowns for simultaneous enemy encounters.
Each Spider-Man has a dedicated skill tree, along with a shared skill tree that allows both characters to learn new abilities. Players can also monitor an all-new rage meter to unleash their pent-up frustrations on villains.
Notable Characters
