Insomniac Games Unveils First Update for Spider-Man 2 Ahead of Global PlayStation 5 Launch

Insomniac Games has taken a significant step in preparing for the global launch of Spider-Man 2 on PlayStation 5 later this week by rolling out the game’s first update.

For those who have digitally pre-ordered the game, the option to pre-load the highly-anticipated sequel is already available. Players who have pre-loaded the title can now access the first day-one update, which has been made available for download. While the patch weighs in at approximately 1.8GB, no official patch notes have been shared by Insomniac at this time. It’s possible that the included changes have been disclosed to reviewers who have been given early access to the game ahead of the October 20th launch. However, due to non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), these reviewers are unable to share the update notes just yet.

Spider-Man 2, launching this week on PlayStation 5, is expected to match its predecessor’s duration. Thanks to the PlayStation 5’s capabilities, setpieces will feel more expansive in the game. Unlockable suits for Peter Parker and Miles Morales, showcased with impressive visuals, await exploration by eager fans.

Stay tuned for more updates on Spider-Man 2 as we approach its launch. In the meantime, you can read our launch review of the 2018 Spider-Man game:
