Last week Sony announced a lot of the titles that will come to the PlayStation 5, we received previews of launch titles and early 2021 titles. There were a lot of impressive titles announced, such as Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, Resident Evil: Village, and Horizon Zero Dawn: Forbidden West, but the game the show that night was Insomniac Games’ Spider-Man: Miles Morales, a new title telling the story of popular Miles Morales as the new Spider-Man. This game picks up where Marvel’s Spider-Man left off.
This one here is a launch title, expected to be an original story, roughly the same length as the popular expansion pack Uncharted: The Lost Legacy. Well now we have more information from Brian Horton, Creative Director of Insomniac, he’s opened up about the studio’s new game, sharing further details about what we can expect.
“As we continued with the Marvel’s Spider-Man universe, we knew that Miles’s origin story as a Spider-Man was something that needed its own game, Miles’s multicultural background reflects a more modern, diverse world and we wanted to give players a new story, with new set-pieces, fresh villains, and unique quests across Marvel’s New York City.”
“It’s now wintertime, about a year after the events of the first game,” he continues. “Marvel’s New York is covered in snow, and just before Christmas break, a war between an energy corporation and a high-tech criminal army has broken out. Miles’s new home in Harlem is at the heart of the battle.” He also talked about the PS5’s raw power will be a game-changer, promising “near-instant load timing,” ray tracing as well as graphical character improvements.
