Spider-Man 2 PS4: 10 Villains We Need To See

6. Sandman

Spider Man 2 Venom
Marvel Comics

Another villain that Spider-Man has supposedly tangled with before in Insomniac's universe, Sandman's pure strength and versatile range of powers make him an exciting potential antagonist for an upcoming sequel. His ability to turn his body into limitless sand poses a lot of interesting mechanics for a high-octane showdown between himself and Spider-Man, especially when factoring in the impressive technology that's bound to come with the release of the PlayStation 5.

He may not pose many intriguing story implications, but there's few henchmen that can offer the same intensity as Sandman, a fight between himself and Spidey surely creating a spectacle based set-piece that rivals even the strongest action sequences of the first game. This comes down to the sheer variety of ways the villain utilises his powers, whether that be growing to the size of of a skyscraper, moulding his hands into deadly weapons or shooting sand as a projectile to crush his enemies.

However the fight goes down, it would be a shame not to utilise Sandman's insane potential in a second game. Throwing down with the behemoth could lead to an exciting scenario that makes the player use Spidey's gadgets and skills in new and interesting ways, and if Insomniac were wise, he'd be a shoo-in for Spider-Man 2.
