Insomniac Games' sequel is reportedly on track for fall 2023

The game stars Peter and Miles, with players able to swap between both characters, although it isn’t a co-op title.

“You’ll seamlessly switch between both Spider-Men across a variety of story moments in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2,” according to Insomniac. “We want players to bask in iconic team-ups elevated by our signature set piece moments, and experience the story from the perspective of each Spider-Man.”
