AAA video games using Marvel Comics properties are becoming increasingly common. One of the most popular games starring a superhero from the brand is Insomniac Games’Spider-Man, originally released in 2018 for the PS4. This game then received a spin-off in the form ofSpider-Man: Miles Morales, where it follows Miles in his adventure in saving New York City from a new threat while Peter Parker is away. Following that, an official sequel will be coming to the PS5, starring both Spider-Men andthe infamous symbiote Venom.These games are all exclusive to PlayStation consoles, with bothSpider-Man RemasteredandSpider-Man: Miles Moralesbeing available to play on the PS5. However, recent years have seen Sony allowing some of these exclusives move from its consoles to PC, with the most recent port being 2018’sGod of War. This trend is continuing, as June 2022’s State of Play Presentation revealed thatSpider-Man Remasteredwill be swinging onto PClater this year in August. One tidbit that wasn’t formally announced with the trailer, however, is thatSpider-Man: Miles Moraleswill also be coming to the platform.RELATED:Images of Canceled Marvel MMO Revealed OnlineAfter theState of Play Presentation, a blog by Insomniac’s Ryan Schneider was posted on PlayStation’s website.
