At San Diego Comic Con on Thursday night Insomniac Games released a brand new trailer for the upcoming Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 for PlayStation 5.
The new trailer gives a look at the game’s narrative in a major way. Players get plenty of Peter Parker, Miles Morales, MJ, Kraven the Hunter, the Lizard, and Venom. The trailer seems to hint that the symbiote will have some impact on Parker during the course of the game.
In addition to the trailer, Sony released a new post on the PlayStation blog with some more details on the Spider-Man 2 story from Senior Narrative Director Jon Paquette.
“At the beginning of our story, our Spider-Men are at the top of their game,” said Paquette. “But both Peter Parker and Miles Morales are struggling with their personal lives. Miles is trying to find time to write his college entrance essay, but he keeps procrastinating and focusing on Spider-Work instead.

“Meanwhile, Peter is underwater on payments for Aunt May’s house, but he can’t sell, it means too much to him. And just like Miles, Peter tries (and fails) to find balance with so many responsibilities. MJ wants to help Pete with the mortgage, but her job is on the line now that J. Jonah Jameson is back at the Bugle and looking to clean house. Our heroes have arrived at a confluence of crossroads, with uncertain futures, and some tough decisions ahead.”
Spider-Man 2 launches on October 20 exclusively for PS5.
