Spider-Man: Miles Morales - 10 Major Characters Who Must Appear

4. Venom (Harry Osborn)

Right at the end of Spider-Man on PS4, Insomniac hit us with a real humdinger and set up their inevitable sequel.

As the game finished, we see Norman Osborn enter into a mysterious secret lab in his home. Inside, we find that Harry Osborn is in some sort of coma as his father tries to cure him of a degenerative disease. Yes, everyone, Harry isn't in Europe like we all thought he was!

Even more intriguing is that as Norman looks at his son, a mysterious entity which looks very much like a symbiote appears and apes Norman's movement.

Now given that Miles Morales is likely to be a game which bridges the gap between a Peter Parker-led sequel, it seems unlikely that Venom will appear as a fully-fledged villain. That's not to say that the title can't set up the eventual transformation of Harry into Venom though - perhaps in the climatic moments of the game, freshly after defeating the Green Goblin, Miles and Peter find Harry in Norman's secret lab and - not realising that the symbiote is present - release him and the symbiote from their containment?
