Playstation Insomniac's Spider-Man 2

I can only assume they decided to incorporate whatever they had planned for the DLC into Spider-Man 3. Could be a better decision in the long run but still a bummer that we likely won't see anything else for this game apart from the possible occasional new suits.
 
Not even one year and a half, and the PC port gets a release. The gap is getting shorter and shorter. :word:
 
We don't have many "major" villains left, do we? I mean, for the final game they'll probably cook something bigger than the previous two. So maybe they decided to keep Carnage for SM3...

I'm not fussed because this means whatever comes next will feel more complete.

Same. A bit disappointed but given the reports about the developers being overworked and they had to cut content from SM2 to meet their deadlines, it's fine. I'd rather them focus their efforts on future games.

How do you cancel something that was never announced? Its been a year and nothing. I didnt expect any story DLC at this point

I think its obvious they are going to go the Spider-Verse route with the 3rd game which opens up endless possibilitiees.

Sony is barely releasing new PS5 games, so they need to make money off of their software somehow. I bet you the gap wouldnt be so short if they had a steady stream of first party content coming out

We know they were planning dlc due to the leaks. Just because they never formally announced the dlc doesn't mean they never worked on it.

I hope so. Maybe that's why they unceremoniously killed so many villains in the second game.

I hope we can play we Gwen too.


And yes, according to the leaks, they were working on a DLC with Beetle as a villain.

Could be because there's an unofficial playable PC build out in the wild from the Insomniac leak. Could be because Concord flopped hard and they want to recoup some of that lost money ASAP. Could be the fact PC players are reluctant to spend $70 USD on a 3 or 4-year-old game and Sony has realized that.

There does seem to be an observable pattern regarding the release gaps. We even see their remakes/remasters getting released with shorter gaps. Until Dawn was day and date. Meanwhile, TLOU2 is ready but they're waiting for Season 2 of the HBO show. There's also Demon's Souls, which was in the Nvidia leak, and it still hasn't been announced four years later.
 
finally, the ability to play Spider-Man 2 with OG Peter Parker's face will be possible

Gobby and Carnage are really the only two major ones as far as classic villains go. Only other ones I can really think of are Chameleon (who was teased in 2 and should be back in 3), Morbius, Alistair Smythe and Hobgoblin, but we're not likely to see the latter in 3 if Norman is the main big bad.
 
Remember when people said, there's no need to complain about PC ports of Sony tentpole games, because the pc port for the PS5 games would take years anyway... well here we are now. Spider-Man 2 is not even 2 years old!

Hobgoblin I always said is a great post game DLC option for SM3. But if SM2 isn't getting post launch story DLC, who knows if that will either
 
I would like another obscure villain getting the centerstage. I feel like Mr. Negative was a breakout villain because of the 2018 game, and I can include him in the group of famous Spidey villains.

Visually, Jack-o-Lantern intrigues me, so i want Insomniac to adapt him.

Yeah, I think they are abandoning DLC for a "mini game" release, ala Miles Morales. And, honestly, I suspect the mini games will be whoever new character they introduce in the main game. The hack tells us what the next mini game is.
