Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated games of the year.
It is the third title in the popular Spider-Man series after the release of Marvel’s Spider-Man in 2018 and the spin-off title Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales in 2020.
The upcoming title is already up for pre-orders but to celebrate the release, Sony has unveiled a new PlayStation 5 Spider-Man 2 Limited Edition bundle at San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC).
“The design was inspired by the in-game symbiote that’s taking over the console and controller, but you can still see some of the underlying red under the tendrils. This represents the various ways players will experience the symbiote takeover in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. It’s a constant push and pull for dominance whether it’s internal or external and the outcome is not certain.”
