Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Fans Spot Gigantic Design Flaw in NYC Subways, Stirring Curiosity in Game’s Details

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, launched on October 20, has sparked player attention, with one fan uncovering an amusing anomaly within the game’s New York City subway system. While some gamers focus on unlocking Peter Parker’s abilities, others venture into the game’s world, uncovering quirks in its design.

The sequel to the 2018 hit puts players back in NYC as Peter Parker and Miles Morales, navigating iconic villains’ chaos. Players have had a week to delve into the game and notice peculiar elements of the virtual city.

Player Joee0201 shared a screenshot showcasing the significant size difference between the in-game subway train cars and Peter Parker. In the image, Peter appears dwarfed next to the colossal subway doors and passengers. The train door, nearly twice Peter’s height, and the step onto the train itself, far taller than real NYC trains, hint at disproportionate design. Though non-impactful to gameplay, fans were intrigued by the subway’s unusual scale.

Fans offered insights, suggesting the subway elements were possibly initially smaller, then scaled up for fitting the larger city. Others speculated about scaling adjustments to accommodate infrastructure. Humorous takes surfaced, jesting about the New York Giants and jokingly portraying Wolverine’s height. As players continue to explore Spider-Man 2, more discoveries about the game world and its beloved characters are anticipated.

Notable figures, including Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s Masahiro Sakurai, have praised the game. Fans expect potential Game of the Year considerations as the year closes.
