Sony announced on Friday that Marvel’s “Spider-Man 2” will be released on PC next year. The action-adventure superhero game launches exclusively on PlayStation 5 in 2023 and will be released on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store on January 30, 2025. Like other exclusive games, Sony has chosen to launch Spider-Man 2 on PC more than a year after launching on PS5. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is the follow-up to 2018’s Marvel’s Spider-Man and 2020’s Miles Morales, both of which were released on PC.
Spider-Man 2 is coming to PC
The PC version of the critically acclaimed game was announced at New York Comic Con on Friday. Developer Insomniac Games confirmed that the port will be handled by Nixxes Software, the studio behind the PC ports of previous Spider-Man games in the series and several PlayStation exclusives.
As expected, the PC version of Spider-Man 2 will come with a host of enhancements specific to the platform. Nixxes says it will share a detailed list of PC features and system requirements closer to launch. “We’re excited to continue this partnership and bring Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 to PC with a range of enhancements, including enhanced ray tracing options, to take advantage of a variety of settings and configurations. Stay tuned for more details on upcoming features and recommended specs,” Nixxes said in a PlayStation blog post announcing the game’s PC port.
“Our amazing partners at Nixxes have once again done an incredible job bringing the world of Marvel’s Spider-Man to PC players,” said Mike Fitzgerald, director of core technology at Insomniac. “Our team has put a lot of love into this game, and we’re excited that it will soon be loved by a whole new audience of players, with keyboard and mouse controls, ultrawidescreen support, and numerous graphical options to make the game feel right at home on their platform.”
The PC version of the game will come with all post-launch content updates, but Insomniac confirmed that “no additional story content is planned for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.”
Spider-Man 2 PC version
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 will be available on PC in two editions: the Standard Edition and the Digital Deluxe Edition. The Standard Edition will come with the full game and the latest post-launch updates, which include 12 new suits, new Game+ mode, ultimate levels, new symbiote suit styles, time of day customization, post-game achievements, action figure mode in photo mode, and a screen reader and audio description.
The Digital Deluxe Edition, on the other hand, will include the full game, all updates from the Standard Edition, and add five exclusive suits each for Peter Parker and Miles Morales, early unlocks of the Spider Rider Suit (Peter), the Shadow Spider Suit (Miles), and the Web Crawler Gadget, five additional skill points, and additional Photo Mode items.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 launches exclusively on PS5 for the first time on October 20, 2023. The game tells the crossover story of Spider-Man, Peter, and Miles as they team up to take on a new and vicious threat to New York City. It features an expanded open world with two new boroughs, new ways to travel through the city, and plenty of iconic Spider-Man villains to fight against. Spider-Man 2 is now wishlisted on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
