Sony’s Insomniac Games is working on Spider-Man: Miles Morales, a PS5-bound sequel that, as the name implies, puts you in the shoes (and superhero suit) of Peter Parker’s protege. The brief teaser didn’t show much in the way of gameplay, but it’s clear the game will get a visual boost over its PS4 predecessor. You can expect it to arrive alongside the PS5 in hoilday 2020.
While Sony’s announcement didn’t show off too much of the gameplay for Spider-Man: Miles Morales, the teaser trailer does show off new abilities, like Miles’ electric venom blasts, along with new features, like changing weather and daylight cycles, that didn’t appear in the original game.
The original Spider-Man on PS4 has been used by Sony in repeated demos to showcase the improvements in load times and level design that are possible with the new, faster SSD on the PlayStation 5. So it’ll be extremely interesting to see what’s possible with a game that was designed from the ground up with those sort of speeds in mind.
