Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse features a brief new look at Spider-Man 2 gameplay

If you’ve already seen Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, you may have noticed a little cameo in Insomniac’s game. spider man 2.

A little over a week ago we got our first look at gameplay in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, which finally confirmed that Peter will be donning the symbiote suit and that we’ll also be able to play as Miles. While this is definitely exciting for many gamers, the most prominent version of Miles that’s on everyone’s mind is the animated movie version of him, as Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse just hit theaters last night. last week. And it looks like fans have already figured out that a bit of never-before-seen Spider-Man 2 gameplay can be seen in Across the Spider-Verse, though it’s pretty easy to miss (thanks, eurogamer).

The clip, which you can see below, shows a very brief moment showing Miles’s friend Ganke (who also appeared in the recent gameplay trailer) playing on a PS5, with gameplay that’s obviously from Spider-Man 2. It shows Peter fighting with arms like Doctor Octopus, you might remember him using in the game’s reveal trailer, something we haven’t seen in the game yet.

later Restore, fans wondered if the footage was new, as they had no recollection of seeing it in the game’s recent showcase, which Insomniac Games Community Director James Stevenson later confirmed as new. While those mechanical arms were in the original launch trailer, a lot can change in game development, so it was always possible that they were removed.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 certainly looks like it’s shaping up to be a strong sequel so far. It’s also going to be a lot bigger, and the game’s creative director recently shared that the map will be twice the size compared to the first game, now allowing you to explore Brooklyn and Queens on top of the original Manhattan map.
