With the gaming community buzzing about the impending release of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, developer Insomniac Games has recently clarified one aspect of the game that’s been a subject of speculation.
Responding to a query on Twitter about whether the game would offer a co-op mode, the studio confirmed that Spider-Man 2 is envisioned as an exclusive single-player game, extinguishing any hopes of co-op adventuring.
The succinct reply from Insomniac read, “Nope! It is an epic single-player adventure!” This clarification may disappoint those who had imagined teaming up with a friend to swing through the skyscrapers of Manhattan. A cooperative mode might have seemed plausible, given that two Spider-Man characters—Miles Morales and Peter Parker—are featured in the game.
This news from Insomniac may come as a surprise to some, as it contradicts hints dropped by Nadji Jeter, the voice actor for Miles in the game. During a panel at SacAnime Summer 2022, Jeter teased that a co-op feature might be in the pipeline. However, it now appears that these speculations were off the mark.

With a tentative launch window of Fall 2023 exclusively for PlayStation 5, fans are eagerly awaiting more specific details about Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. Voice actor Tony Todd, who lends his vocal talents to the character Venom, has hinted at a September release, but an official date is yet to be announced.
The game promises a darker tone than its predecessor and has even introduced a new adversary named “The Hood” through a prequel comic book released on May 6, further fueling the anticipation for the game.
As gamers hold their breath for a solid release date, Sony’s upcoming PlayStation showcase, scheduled for Wednesday, May 24, presents an opportunity for more news about the game. Many are hopeful that this event might provide a much-awaited confirmation for the release of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.
