Insomniac's Spider-Man 2: Every CONFIRMED Detail We Know
2. ...Complete With New Powers
Marvel Comics
During the sequence where Mary Jane infiltrates Norman's apartment (and picks up that second, fateful, radioactive spider), players are actually given their first tease of Miles' move-set.
Immediately to the right of the entrance, MJ can walk up to a desk and interact with a graph detailing two specific strains of Spider-DNA, one designed for active camouflage, and the other to emit an electro-kinetic blast. These are actually two of Miles' biggest powers, and it isn't exactly difficult to see how they'd work their way into the sequel's gameplay.
Whether this means we'll get to see Miles do more stealth sections or use a special 'venom blast' takedown is up in the air, but we can at least be certain that his move-set will differ from Peter's and that the game itself is likely to spotlight both Spider-Men, even as one of them potentially suits up in the symbiote and takes a somewhat darker turn.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
