Spider-Man PS4: 10 Major Worries Nobody Wants To Admit

6. Yuri Lowenthal's Performance

Yuri Lowenthal is a fantastic voice actor, but does he really have the depth and range to portray both Spider-Man and Peter Parker?

Gameplay demos and trailers so far have shown a fair amount of Yuri's performance as Spider-Man, and so far he's doing a pretty great job. His quips are a good blend of funny and cringey and he delivers a good sense of emotion.

Even if he sounds distractingly like Sasuke a lot of the time, Yuri can definitely handle the Spider-Man side of things. It's the Peter Parker side that matters so much more.

So far all we've seen from Yuri's performance of Peter is small snippets from trailers, and we don't really get to see how far the difference goes. Peter and Spider-Man are best played when the difference between them is made clear, and Insomniac has promised that there will be differences in their character.

The whole story of the game and our love for Spider-Man hinges on Yuri's ability to be able to balance both characters effectively, and that's a pretty big concern.
