Summer Game Fest gave us a new look at Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and revealed the release date for the game, as well as our first looks at Venom in-game and the box art.
After the lack of a release date at the PlayStation Showcase a couple of weeks ago, Insomniac Games Creative director Bryan Intihar appeared alongside Geoff Keighley during the Summer Games Fest Showcase, and revealed that the Marvel's Spider-Man 2 release date is officially October 20, 2023. October has become even more of a nemesis to our free time (and our wallets) as the October 20, 2023 release date places Marvel's Spider-Man 2 right alongside Alan Wake 2 and Assassin's Creed Mirage.
While there wasn't any new gameplay shown from the game, the box art for the game was revealed, looking very similar to the original game's art, but now featuring Miles Morales alongside a Symbiote infested Peter Parker. We also got our first look at Venom in-game with Inithar confirming that the version of Venom appearing in Marvel's Spider-Man 2 won't be the typical host of the Symbiote Eddie Brock, but neglected to mention the identity of this new Venom (It's probably Harry Osborn though).
