Wow, if only the hype scale could go into overdrive! Insomniac Games really kicked off the work week with a bang, informing everyone via the official Spider-Man 2 PS5 Twitter that “Let’s get the week started. #SpiderMan2PS5 #BeGreaterTogether.” Honestly? That’s all we needed to feel our Spidey senses go off.
No trailer, no cryptic messages, just the cool kind of social media post that says,
“Yep, we’re still coming, and it’s gonna be epic.” That’s all that Spider-Man 2 needed to ignite the passion of its followers: two hand claps followed by hashtags.” Throw it in with #SpiderMan2PS5 and #BeGreaterTogether-that screen just drips with Monday flavor.
The truth is Spider-Man 2 gets excited over a single crumb of info. Insomniac has chosen to avoid leaking anything else about the game ever since that hefty gameplay presentation, which only makes the hype train go stronger.
Fans are gnawing on every minute piece of existing footage, conjecturing about what or who Venom is, how the Peter-Miles dynamic will unfold, and what symbiotic-suit-related fun we may actually get to see.
Let’s talk about that #BeGreaterTogether for a second. That is not just some random word; it senses like a mission statement. The first one that was an exploration of Peter Parker’s journey and the second with Miles Morales fleshed the universe out with another storyline. In this one? It’s full-blown team-up; the possibilities are squared. Co-op? Probably not, but switching back and forth between Peter and Miles in real-time gameplay? Oh, that’s a dream come true.
They don’t even reply to a tweet, and that’s just odd. Most of the time, posts like that rally an outpouring of comments from fans clamoring for a release date or begging for something—anything—gameplay-related. This time? Nothing. Maybe they’re still on their 50th rewatch of that gameplay demo. Or maybe the fandom is just all holding its breath waiting for news.
And now, what comes next? Sooner or later, with Summer Game Fest and more to come, we can surely expect Insomniac to take us behind the curtain again. Was a release date going to be offered? New villains? So much more web-slinging goodness? All signs point to “Oh heck yeah.”
So until then, we will remain over here staring at the tweet, imagining it is a full-blown trailer. Because let us be really honest; any crumb released pertaining to Spider-Man 2 feels like a win. Stay strapped in, fellow believers. The hype is very, very real.
