Spider-Man DLC: 10 Things The City That Never Sleeps Must Include
2. Playable Miles With Spidey Powers
Insomniac
Spider-Man's story ended on the perfect note by having Miles and Peter reveal their powers to each other, and while we can expect Miles to suit up in the sequel as Spider-Man, it's likely that the DLC will delve into this journey too.
As for Miles' gameplay, well, Insomniac have actually already teased what's to come. In the comics (and now in this universe too), Miles has a special venom sting and an active-camouflage ability. When MJ enters the lab in Norman's apartment, it's revealed that Oscorp are experimenting on spiders with a view to developing those two respective powers, and with it likely to have imbued Morales with those abilities, the gameplay potential is there for all to see.
Miles and Peter had a great friendship in the main story, so it would make sense for Insomniac to spotlight that dynamic in the DLC as well. Even if Miles doesn't suit up as Spidey just yet, having Pete impart some classic Parker wisdom (the crimefighting kind, of course) would really help make the wait for the sequel just that little bit shorter.
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.
