New Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Posters Revealed
PlayStation's marketing push for Spider-Man 2 is in full swing.
Ahead of its launch in a little over a month, PlayStation and developer Insomniac Games have today revealed a pair of new posters from Marvel's Spider-Man 2. By all accounts, the Spider-Man sequel is shaping up to be one of the biggest games of 2023 and is without a doubt going to be a major hit for PlayStation. Now, as a way of generating even more buzz and excitement for the title, Insomniac has let loose some new images of the game that feature both Spider-Men.
Shared on Insomniac's official X (or Twitter) account, a set of posters tied to Marvel's Spider-Man 2 were shown off. The first poster sees Peter Parker striking a post while swinging through New York City with the logo for Spider-Man 2 emblazoned over the top. The second poster is then quite similar, although it instead features Miles Morales in his new "Upgraded Suit". Insomniac shared these new images from the game while also encouraging fans to pre-order Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

Perhaps the most interesting thing about this new poster for Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is that the version featuring Peter doesn't show him in his new Symbiote suit. This "black suit" version of Spider-Man was shown off heavily in the most recent gameplay presentation from PlayStation that debuted earlier this year. And while it's clear that Peter's new outfit will play a major role in the story of Spider-Man 2, clearly, PlayStation and Insomniac are opting to not put this costume front and center in the marketing for the sequel.
When Does Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Release?
In case you didn't already have the launch date for Marvel's Spider-Man 2 circled on your calendar, the game is set to arrive on October 20 exclusively for PlayStation 5. Currently, Spider-Man 2 is the most notable game that PlayStation is set to launch for the remainder of 2023, but it's not the only one. Additionally, Sony will be publishing titles such as Helldivers 2 and Stellar Blade this year, although both of these games don't yet have specified release dates just yet.
