For all that the random crimes in Spider-Man PS4 were appreciated, they did start to get repetitive over time. Thankfully it seems as though Insomniac have noticed this, as leaks have stated that random crimes will be getting an overhaul this time around.

Although "early in development", the studio are apparently working on a Diablo-esque dungeons mechanic, whereby randomised crimes will spawn into the world and generate different situations for the player to deal with. The example used in the earlier leak describes how, in the event of a bank robbery, enemies won't be placed in the same area and players will be faced with evolving mini-objectives as they play.

Random crimes are a great way of letting players live out the fantasy of being everyone's favourite web-slinger, and if Insomniac have found a way to make them seem more organic, that's even better.
