SPIDER-MAN 2 Reportedly Won't Be Insomniac's Next Game, But Something Big Could Be On The Way

Despite speculations that Spider-Man 2 will be among the PlayStation 5 games revealed tonight, it's now said that Insomniac is actually working on a different title we could soon learn more about...

Unfortunately, it's looking unlikely we'll get a first look at Spider-Man 2 during tonight's big PlayStation 5 reveal event. Despite the fact it's reportedly been in development since last January, Bloomberg's Jason Schreier said in a now-deleted Tweet that he's heard it won't be Insomniac's next game. 

He's a prominent gaming journalist, industry insider, and occasional leaker, so chances are we can trust what he had to say. Unfortunately, Schreier didn't specify what the studio is currently working on, but there have been rumblings for a while now that a new Ratchet & Clank game is on the way, and that it will be one of the launch titles when the PlayStation 5 is released. 

Of course, it's also possible that Sony has decided to return to the Resistance franchise as that actually helped launch the PlayStation 3 and was a huge hit at the time. Alternatively, it could be a completely new property, and we'll likely know for sure a little later this evening. 

There's a lot of excitement surrounding Sony's PlayStation 5 event, with the focus likely on the system's games rather than a release date or pricing. However, a leaked Amazon UK listing yesterday put the console down at £599.99, which works out at roughly $749.99. So, it won't be cheap, but possibly worth it depending on how impressive this line-up of games is. 

What are you guys hoping to see from Insomniac later tonight?

Looks like they're doing the Naughty Dog thing of sequels to their big franchise every other game? Schreier is maybe the most trust-worthy source in games journalism, so I'd trust him here.
Loved the first one.

Honestly, if it's £600 then I'm gonna wait for the price to drop. Not even sure how good the launch titles will be right now,

@Nightwing1015 - Does that Batman game even exist or was it all just an elaborate ruse, lmao

@tmp3 - lol, yeah we know for certain it exists (although not that it will be revealed later today!). It's just a matter of whether it's a PS5 exclusive or not. Because one leak said it's for both systems. In which case I'll probably just get it for PS4

I'd rather they work on something else in the meantime. Working on one franchise for too long could cause some problems down the road so it's good to take a step away for now and come back to it later. Unless we all want a repeat of...

@Mrcool210 - just got the free game on epic store. Is it worth playing? And why does it keep getting hate?

@JustALurker - it’s a really fun game, I think people were just disappointed with the obvious reveal of the Arkham Knights identity and constantly being forced to use to batmobile for tank missions. The playing as Batman stuff is still awesome

@Mrcool210

Arkham Knight wasn’t even that bad. The bat mobile fights were prolly the worst part about it - and they were fun, just way overdone.

Arkham Knight was still a dope game.

Maybe a Marvel game set in the same universe? Or not. I just want a sequel to the first one

I can’t imagine that it’s not a Spiderman game but at the same time Jason is an incredibly reliable source so i dont know what to make of this

Imagine a Manhattan that is 1:1 scale? It would be ginormous, but just imagine. I think this next gen could pull it off.
