Spider-Man PS4: 7 Theories On THAT Mystery Character

4. Venom

There are few Spidey characters as revered as Venom, so it's understandable as to why fans have predicted that he'll be the game's actual big bad.

Though the signs at the end of the trailer point to someone else, with the light shining in Spidey's eyes perhaps illustrating a villain with a more technological focus, fans have honed in on a 'web-like' noise moments before the reveal. Could it be Venom? Carnage perhaps? Either way, Insomniac have remained coy over the potential inclusion of any symbiote at this stage, let alone two of Spidey's most notorious adversaries.

That's not to say they wouldn't be appreciated of course, and with Insomniac more than aware of Venom's unique status among web-heads everywhere, no one should be ruling out an appearance just yet.

Especially if they're thinking about sequels...
