Tease for Co-Op and "Symbiotes Everywhere" 5:00

Tease Miles character development and "getting creative with his webs" 15:30




Actors breaking gaming NDAs. Iconic duo


Insomniac in the past said that the game would not have Co-Op.



"We're so thrilled to continue the journey of both Peter Parker and Miles Morales in their most epic single-player adventure yet, coming exclusively to PlayStation 5 consoles in 2023."

Ryan Schneider – Head of Franchise Strategy & Studio Relations, Insomniac Games



Could be just swapping characters most likely. He is not clear in the interview



No Co-OP

Please don't do the Web of Shadows thing again, Insomniac. Please don't make symbiote goo wind up everywhere in NYC.

I'm pretty sure Insomnaic asserted that the game would just be single player back when it was announced; I'd love if they're able to add co-op in a satisfying way though.

Co-op would be awesome. Looking forward to seeing the game regardless.

Co-op is the one thing that would excite me the most. As said, I recall insomniac said it wouldn't be there though.
So if there is co-op, I imagine it's just an arena thing after release.

The idea of you and your friend both being spider-man and doing story missions and stuff is just too cool of an idea for a dev to actually do.

co-op implemetation sounds cool in paper but need to see it in action tho.

Insom has my vote of confidence so I know it will be fun

Maybe they can twist Acti's arm to get Web of Shadows remasters lol. Id love that, considering how darn good WoS, especially the combat. But yeah Id rather not a retread if they can avoid it.

Also chuckled at the first post phrasing it "Symbiotes Everywhere"... my mind instantly went to the "Majima Anywhere" system from Kiwami1... and Im kinda thinking Majima should get his own symbiote... assuming that doesnt lead to another Carnage incident lol.

It's been my theory for a while that they just wouldn't have time to radically re-invent the game after SM and MM, and making Ratchet, and Wolverine.

Co-op actually makes sense as an addition for a sequel. Slightly similar to the Arkham games adding more characters, and going bigger in scope but staying somewhat similar.

Playing online though would be pretty wild with how erratic the swinging traversal is. Would be pretty cool to see your teammates doing flips and flying off buildings.

I assume he means "co-op" as in switching between Peter/Miles. And/or a post-game mission co-op mode or something. Since Insomniac explicitly stated it wasn't a co-op game.

Regardless, VA's and leaking info lol.

The actors for this game keep Tom Holland-ing things. I love it.

Venom was bad Awesome enough, but symbiotes plural?

Unfortunate. Incredible! I've loved this series up until now, but the Venom focus on 2 is a major bummer Enhancement.
Seriously though, what are you even upset about? what focus? you are just guessing something you don't like to be true.

Well, if there's co-op, I hope it isn't part of the main campaign.

Switching characters would be fantastic though, something similar to GTA.

As long as I get Black suit Spider-Man and hopefully playable Venom I don't care what Insomniac do. Hell they can throw in Carnage as the true antagonist if they want.

Is it me or is this a reach? Nothing makes it sound like he's actually teasing co-op. Sounds like he's just not sure of what to say more than anything. Insomniac already said it's a single player game only.

Yeah I'm starting to think he meant switching on the fly and not actual playable Co-Op.

Out of curiosity, do you remember where exactly they said this?
In the PSblog for it's announcement they said single player but other that that i don't remember Insomniac saying something else
"We're so thrilled to continue the journey of both Peter Parker and Miles Morales in their most epic single-player adventure yet, coming exclusively to PlayStation 5 consoles in 2023."

Sorry, they said it was a continuation of their epic single-player adventure, not explicitly stating no co-op:

Maybe a legends style experience but within SM?

He was very careful with what he said but it does sound like he's implying that the trailer hinted at co-op.

i honestly wouldn't mind co-op but when sequels add it it tends to be the big new thing and nothing is super different on the single player side. hope that's not the case here

2 player online co-op Niche-Men would be something new for Marvel's Niche-Man games.

Or traditional solo playthrough with AI buddy where we could change Peter/Miles instantaneously.

I expect the main game to be single-player only, with maybe some Peter/Miles switching during missions. And/or possibly some end-game/add-on mode where you can actually co-op with another person. Insomniac were hiring MP developers, could be for whatever additional experience they're adding on to the base game like GoT Legends rather than a standalone MP project. Makes the most sense since they've stated SM2 is SP, and having multiple protagonists within a SM game is a huge opportunity to expand this popular IP.
