Nope, this isn’t the same Spider-Man you’ve met before, nor is our game based on the upcoming movie. Spider-Man is one of the most iconic and well-known characters in the world, and we’re thrilled to be given the responsibility to create a brand-new, authentic Spider-Man story. We love building big games, with incredible gameplay, deep stories, and beautiful graphics. So much so that for the first time in Insomniac’s 22-year history, we’re working on an IP that didn’t originate in-house. Those are tenets we value deeply in our own craft.įrom our first meeting, Marvel, Spider-Man and Insomniac have felt like a match made in heaven. From comics to films and TV, Marvel has a stellar reputation for unique characters and storytelling filled with personality and humor.
Fortunately, there are many more longtime fans and professional admirers of Marvel at Insomniac. When I first learned Insomniac was approached by our long-time friends and collaborators at Sony Interactive Entertainment with the opportunity to create a blockbuster Spider-Man console game experience, I practically ran into Ted’s office professing my passion for Spider-Man – along with a desire to serve as creative director. I’ve been an avid Marvel fan all my life. There are a few fun details embedded throughout the piece, so take your time watching!įrom a personal and professional standpoint, this is a dream come true. (Surprise!) You can see the trailer below. Today at PlayStation’s Press Conference, we revealed our new Spider-Man game coming exclusively to PlayStation 4.
