Insomniac's Next Big Project: Marvel's Spider-Man 3?
Exciting news for fans of the web-slinger: Insomniac Games might be weaving the early threads of Marvel's Spider-Man 3. A recent job listing for a Senior UX Researcher at Insomniac hints at a AAA title in the early stages of production, sparking speculation that it could be the next installment in their critically acclaimed Spider-Man series. Given the success and open-ended narrative of 2023's Spider-Man 2, it's no surprise that fans are eager for more.
Rumors have been swirling around the gaming community, especially after a massive data breach following Spider-Man 2's launch on the PS5. This breach not only confirmed Marvel's Spider-Man 3 but also hinted at new characters joining the Insomniac universe. However, with the game likely years away from release, details remain scarce.
While Marvel's Spider-Man 3 seems the most likely candidate for the project mentioned in the job listing, there's also talk of a half-sequel to Spider-Man 2 featuring Venom as the main playable character. This rumored game, potentially slated for release this year, adds another layer of intrigue. Yet, given the timeline, it's unlikely to be the early production project Insomniac is currently hiring for.
Another possibility is a new Ratchet and Clank title, rumored for a 2029 release. However, Insomniac's current focus seems to be on expanding its Marvel universe, making Spider-Man 3 the more probable choice. While all this remains speculative, the confirmation of a new game in early production is thrilling news for PlayStation enthusiasts.
As we await official announcements, the anticipation for what Insomniac has in store continues to build. Whether it's swinging through New York as Spider-Man or exploring new adventures, fans can rest assured that Insomniac is hard at work crafting another unforgettable gaming experience.
