Introduction to Video Content

Marvel's Spider-Man 2: 10 Things You NEED TO KNOWMarvel's Spider-Man 2 is a highly anticipated video game that has recently been released. In this article, we will discuss ten important details about the game that you should be aware of. Starting off at number 10, one of the major new features in the game is instant character switching. In the original game, players could only control Peter Parker as Spider-Man. However, in the new game, players can also take control of Miles Morales, offering a unique gameplay experience. This character-switching mechanic is similar to the one used in GTA 5, which is known for its seamless transitioning between characters. When switching between Peter and Miles in Spider-Man 2, the game will instantly transition to the chosen character, often in the middle of an action sequence. Each character has their own combat style and gameplay mechanics, as well as unique side stories to explore. Additionally, the other Spidey character will not just disappear when not in control, and may even join the player during random crime missions. This feature adds an extra layer of immersion and collaboration between the two characters. Moving on to number nine, Spider-Man 2 continues the tradition of featuring an expansive open world. The original game's depiction of Manhattan Island was widely acclaimed for its attention to detail and realistic portrayal of New York City. Players can expect the same level of immersive open-world gameplay in Spider-Man 2, allowing them to freely explore the city and engage in various activities. Overall, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 offers exciting new gameplay mechanics and expands on the beloved open-world experience of its predecessor. Fans of the first game and newcomers alike will find plenty to enjoy in this highly anticipated sequel.

Subtitles section

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is here, and there is stuff that you have to hear about it.

Hi, folks, it's Falcon, and today on Gameranx, 10 things you need to know about Marvel's Spider-Man 2. Starting off at number 10, just getting right into it, it's instant character switching.

In the original game, we had Peter Parker as Spider-Man.

In Miles Morales, we got, well, Miles Morales, kind of self-explanatory.

And now in Spider-Man 2, they're finally paying off with a big team-up, and you'll never guess how they're handling it.

About six months ago, we did a video on unique game mechanics, and we talked about the character switching in GTA 5 and how it's just something that it's kind of shocking that no other games have really tried to do it the same way.

And here we have probably the best possible scenario for another game trying to do it, and this is a full-blown GTA 5-style character-swapping mechanic.

It works almost the same as GTA 5. You pick a character, and the game instantly transitions to them, usually in the middle of something.

One example I found was Peter Parker doing sit-ups on the side of a building.

Both characters have their own unique combat style and gameplay, so both characters have unique side stories that only they can explore, too.

And when you swap characters, the other Spidey doesn't just disappear.

Sometimes your partner will actually join you during random crime missions to help out.

This is one of those ones where I'm just ecstatic that this is how they decided to do it.

Seriously, I just think it's the best possible version of having two Spider-Mans.

At number nine is The Open World.

The original Spider-Man has one of the best depictions of Manhattan Island in any game, with just an astoundingly well-recreated New York slice.

But you get more slices this time around.

They're actually expanding off the island, and you get a few other iconic burrows and locations.

The original game's map is actually still there, but it's been expanded across the river to include Queens and Brooklyn.

Now, according to Insomniac, the new map is more than double the size of the original, but if you take out all the water, eh.

This expanded map makes it so you have more Spider-Man landmarks like Midtown High, or there's other New York landmarks like Coney Island.

Along with character switching, there's also a fast travel mechanic, which is, no surprise, incredibly fast.

Just select a location on the 3D map.

It'll zoom in and transition into gameplay almost instantly.

The biggest concern with moving out of Manhattan is the lack of skyscrapers, because without tall buildings, Spider-Man can't really swing around.

Now, in the cartoon, whenever they took him out of Manhattan, it kinda, I guess, didn't matter.

They would just kinda assume the audience didn't care, but you can't really do that when the player has to mechanically identify places to swing off of and then do it.

So Insomniac actually introduced some new movement powers, and I think that they're very good ideas.

And number eight is those new movement abilities.

These are some of the most intriguing changes of the game.

The biggest is the addition of web wings, which allow you to glide through the air that it's kinda like just Cause 3, but a bit faster.

If you're worried about getting across the bridge because it's tedious, just use the web wing.

It makes any river crossing very fast, and there are even wind tunnels you can get into to speed up your movement even more.

Another way to get around fast is the super slingshot, a move where you web onto two poles and use them as a giant slingshot to launch yourself through the air.

It doesn't just let you jump gaps.

It's also really good for increasing your velocity and swinging even faster through the world.

Water isn't even a problem for Spider-Man anymore.

Instead of just dropping into any body of water like a chump, you can now glide along the surface in a way that's pretty similar to Sunset Overdrive, actually.

In fact, I couldn't help but think about Sunset Overdrive a little bit when you start throwing in these new traversal things, because that's really what's particularly unique about Sunset Overdrive.

Anyway, this might sound a little random, but there's new accessibility options like Swing Steering Assist, which can make swinging easier or harder if you want.

One of these settings lets you turn on Fall Damage, so for players who want an added challenge, it's there.

But just to be clear, Fall Damage is actually off by default, so don't worry about it if you hate the idea of Fall Damage in a Spider-Man game.

It's not a normal thing.

You gotta turn it on.

At number seven is the upgraded combat system.

The combat is faster, more aggressive, more challenging, or at least it looks that way in the previews.

Now that Miles is on the team, he's got those extra powers.

The OG Spider-Man has to have a power boost to match up, and he gets it with two new additions to the arsenal, the Iron Arm and, obviously, the Symbiote.

Miles Morales plays mostly the same in this game, but Peter is kind of a whole new beast.

His combat style in particular is super different.

He is overpowering enemies rather than evading them like in the original game.

Previous games had three skill trees to unlock powers, and it's the same in this one, only this one, there's only one tree for Peter.

There's one for Miles, and then there's one that's shared between them.

So the Peter skill tree unlocks new Symbiote powers, the Miles tree unlocks new Venom powers, and the middle one gets you all of the general abilities that both characters share.

One interesting thing I noticed in the previews is you can actually set the L1 special attack wheel to include only the abilities you want for Peter.

So you can only use Symbiote attacks or only Iron Arm attacks or have a mix of both.

So if you wanna focus on one combat style over the other, you're completely able to.

At number six is the Symbiote suit.

So let's get into some details with this.

It grants Peter a bunch of power but it also makes him super aggro, personally speaking, and that's on full display in this game.

Some of the powers look like the game's gone full-ass prototype on us, which, honestly, considering the fact that prototype grew out of the Spider-Man 4 game that got canceled from a completely different developer,

It's like the coolest full-circle thing possible.

But Venom actually really does look a lot like prototype.

He can use tendrils to grab enemies, turn into a ball of destruction, and follow it up with a full combo.

And most intriguing, he can even parry enemy attacks.

In the previous games, all Spider-Man could do was dodge.

Well, here he can stand in place and deflect an attack and keep the combo going, which is gonna add some finesse to the combat.

Hopefully the counter window isn't too tight.

Combat already looks hectic enough.

One thing that's been confirmed by fans is another new ability called the Symbiote Surge that works like Rage Mode from the God of War series.

So Spider-Man can just cut loose and destroy everything in sight for a while.

Also, if you're worried about being locked into the black suit, don't.

The game lets you swap out costumes and these powers aren't tied to a specific suit, so you can use them whenever you want.

At number five is villains.

Other than Batman, nobody's really got a rogues gallery quite like Spider-Man.

Insomniac's been pretty tight-lipped about who is actually gonna show up in this game, but the three we're completely aware of are pretty exciting either way.

There's Kraven the Hunter, who looks to be filling out the silver sable role of the bad guy Merc faction.

Although I don't think that Kraven is becoming an unlikely ally at any point in the story.

Then there's Lizard, a.k.a.

Kirk Conner, a character that usually has personal connection to Peter Parker and is generally played as a tragic figure.

In this game, Kraven is hunting Lizard for Norman Osborn, so you can bet that there's some connection to the whole Symbiote storyline here.

Last but definitely not least is Venom, one of Spider-Man's most powerful enemies who's had a somewhat rocky history on the big screen, but I think it's safe to say he's in good hands with Insomniac.

He's gonna be voiced by Tony Todd, the candy man himself, which is a perfect choice for the character.

He's also not gonna be Eddie Brock, like that's what they said.

So the real question is, is he Kraven?

That's what I'm asking.

I don't know what the answer is, but the boss fights, we at least can say, look like they've gotten an upgrade.

They now have health bars, for instance.

Some of the clips from the Lizard boss make it look a little like a soul's life.

And don't tell me you don't see it looking at this, although obviously Spider-Man is not going to play entirely like a soul's life.

They've obviously brought in some pretty cool inspiration from other stuff, like I said, Prototype.

I also mentioned Sunset Overdrive, so why not soul's likes?

The developers, they've obviously been improving boss fights as they've went.

Like the final boss in Miles Morales was an obvious high point for the two Spider-Man games, and these look like a step up from even that.

At number four is the graphics setting.

Spider-Man 2 is simplifying things.

There's just two visual modes, either visual, which favors fidelity over FPS, and performance.

Note that there is no ray tracing option, not because they've removed it, but because both settings have it.

Like the game's already a visual powerhouse, so seeing a developer actually incorporate ray tracing into the game without compromise, it's really, really impressive.

It's not easy either, because if it were, nobody wouldn't be doing it.

So if you loved performance ray tracing in the last game, don't worry, it's still there.

It just has a different name.

It's just called performance now.

But like, that's great.

It's always gonna have ray tracing, period.

Every bit of the good performance we've seen has had ray tracing in it.

I love it.

At number three, tons of new costumes.

The original game has 47 different costumes to switch between, and apparently, there's gonna be quite a few more in this one.

There's 65 total costumes in Spider-Man 2, not as many for just Peter himself, and they're split between him and Miles, but that's still a lot of costume.

The customization doesn't stop there either.

There's this new suit styles option to unlock different color palettes for each costume.

So in total, the devs say there's 200 costume combinations in total, over 200.

As usual, each one of these suits is gonna have its own tech upgrades, and once again, they can be freely swapped out for whatever you want.

I only saw a few costumes I recognized, like the Civil War suit, the classic black suit, the webbed black suit from Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 3. I expect Peter is gonna have a bunch of black suit variants,

But it looks like there's a bunch of totally new costumes coming to this game, as well as from a variety of artists, so it should be pretty interesting in terms of costume variety.

At number two is the story so far.

Sony's been pretty secretive about the events of the story, but there are a few things we do know.

We know that both of the previous Spider-Man games teased Venom at the end of their games, revealing that Norman Osborn had his son, Harry, in a big vat that also contained the symbiote.

So is Harry Venom?

Is that gonna be one of the big questions of the game, who is Venom?

I don't know.

We'll see, won't we?

They've been really careful to make sure that we have to ask those questions, which is great.

The trailers just haven't shown a lot, but we do know Harry is back, apparently revived by his father.

Another thing we know is that the lizard, Kurt Conner, was involved with Norman Osborn and likely helped him with his research, like the subplot about Kraven and the Hunter.

It all ties back into the main plot as well.

Like I said, all leads us back to the big question of who is Venom?

Harry's the obvious guess.

It would be novel for the franchise.

It would really put a pretty interesting spin on this story because we're not getting Eddie Brock.

I kind of want to call a bit of a wild card here, though.

Harry Osborn doesn't become a nemesis of Peter slash Spider-Man until Norman Osborn is killed, and they did kind of reverse that in this timeline, but what if Norman is actually Venom?

We'll see.

A lot of questions.

Obviously, we'll get the answer with the game, and there's also some loose plot threads from the original game that need to be resolved, like the Kingpin's revenge or Detective Watanabe's turn into the Sin Eater.

Is Doc Ock gonna come back into the story?

Is Norman gonna be the Green Goblin?

Is Gwen Stacy ever gonna show up?

I don't know.

What's nice is that they didn't just give away everything in trailers.

I mean, that's really something I'm thankful for here because I'm interested in where it goes, and obviously, if you already know that, it's hard to be.

And finally, at number one, the release date and special edition information, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is coming out exclusively to the PlayStation 5 on October 20th.

The file size is pretty big.

It's not the biggest we've ever seen.

It's 98 gigabytes, so you'll probably want to clear out or have to clear out some space, but it's not gonna hog up the entire SSD like some games do.

Preload is gonna start on October 13th, a week before the game launches, so they've given people plenty of time to get through the download for the 20th, which is nice because you'll be able to start playing the game right away.

There are the usual pre-order bonuses and special editions, but nothing that really stands out to me, either as really cool or particularly exploitative.

There is an $80 digital deluxe edition that includes five special costumes for both Peter and Miles, so 10 in total.

Some photo mode items, the usual stuff.

Nothing early access-oriented here, so kind of just a straightforward package.

Don't know if it's worth the extra 10 bucks for some extra costumes, but I'm also not every person out there.

Some people might very much think that that's worthwhile.

Up to you.

I'm super excited to play.

I'm gonna strap in, and I am just gonna completely brute force my way through this whole game as soon as I possibly can.

But how about you?
