If I ever post something in Japanese which I don't understand, please BAN me.

Was that real gameplay footage?

Also that's not a QTE, right?

God damn am I excited for this. Insomniac makes fun games. Their humor and art style is perfect for them. Huge fan of the company.

The best part of all, no Activision. Having worked for those asshats, in glad Spidey is in a home where they care about making fun games. So stoked for this game. I can't wait to see more. I hope the game has cool unlockable costumes. I don't mind the one seen in the trailer. Looks neat.
 
After Sunset Overdrive, the city and moving around will sure be fun.

Unexpected developer at the same time. I thought it would be Sucker Punch for sure. They've been quite silent since inFamous, yet Insomiac has released 2 games and is working on this.
Actually I think Sunset Overdrive was a best testrun for a Spiderman than Infamous. Sunset had that fast acrobatic constant-movement action, and fighting on the move

Legit salty about this being PS4 exclusive. Can't think of a better dev for the job (besides sucker punch). Landing a marvel exclusive is HUGE. Kudos.

Never been a superhero guy myself, even as a kid, yet I've been watching My Hero Academia and now this Spider-Man game looks awesome, wtf

Hey everyone,

Today at PlayStation’s Press Conference, we revealed our new Spider-Man game coming exclusively to PlayStation 4. (Surprise!) You can see the trailer below. There are a few fun details embedded throughout the piece, so take your time watching!


From a personal and professional standpoint, this is a dream come true. I’ve been an avid Marvel fan all my life. When I first learned Insomniac was approached by our long-time friends and collaborators at Sony Interactive Entertainment with the opportunity to create a blockbuster Spider-Man console game experience, I practically ran into Ted’s office professing my passion for Spider-Man – along with a desire to serve as creative director. Fortunately, there are many more longtime fans and professional admirers of Marvel at Insomniac. From comics to films and TV, Marvel has a stellar reputation for unique characters and storytelling filled with personality and humor. Those are tenets we value deeply in our own craft.

From our first meeting, Marvel, Spider-Man and Insomniac have felt like a match made in heaven. So much so that for the first time in Insomniac’s 22-year history, we’re working on an IP that didn’t originate in-house. We love building big games, with incredible gameplay, deep stories, and beautiful graphics. Spider-Man is one of the most iconic and well-known characters in the world, and we’re thrilled to be given the responsibility to create a brand-new, authentic Spider-Man story. Nope, this isn’t the same Spider-Man you’ve met before, nor is our game based on the upcoming movie. This is a more seasoned Peter Parker who’s more masterful at fighting big crime in New York City. At the same time, he’s struggling to balance his absurdly chaotic personal life and career. All while nine million New Yorkers depend on him for their safety… no pressure indeed.
This collaboration also allows us to quickly return to action developing on PS4. Having released Ratchet & Clank, we feel confident in our ability to create a showpiece for the console. And we’re downright giddy bringing Spidey’s acrobatic abilities, improvisation, and web-slinging to life. But we also want to introduce new elements that players have never experienced with Spider-Man, ranging from traversing with parkour and utilizing the environment, to new combat and blockbuster set-pieces.

We can’t wait to share more about our Spider-Man game in the months to come. For all the latest, follow Insomniac Games on Twitter or Like us on Facebook.

It IS exclusive. The exclusives make the best games too. Third party drives sales, but I tend to focus on mainly exclusives myself

Game of the show, will preorder for alternate costumes... Wait , the ugly costume is part of an evil plan to get more preorders by holding the civil war suit hostage as a preorder bonus.

The white on the suit looks terrible, but I have high hopes for this game. 2000 PS1 game is still my favourite of the series.

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
I hope you guys at Insomniac are given enough time and resources to pull this off. Expectations are high.

If I've ever wanted to port beg this would be it. Glad to see Marvel is making games again, and not just movie tie ins. With proper developers too

Sunset had the feel of an energetic superhero game more than Infamous ever did. It was just nowhere near as polished. But Ratchet PS4 certainly was.

Infamous Second Son exercises too much restraint and has trouble feeling fun. That speed running is terrible, I have no idea why people compare it to The Flash. The first two were a lot better at going big but even then you were restricted for platforming's sake. Insomniac put fun first and foremost in their games, they know what they're doing.
 
Maybe we'll get a cameo from Daredevil.

On one hand, the license involved could be for Spiderman ONLY. On the other hand, I could totally see Netflix stuff thrown in there complete with original actors coming on board since there's no dichotomy like there is with Marvel Studios and the rest of Marvel.
 
After falling off for me (and probs many others) seems Insomniac are back with a bang. Ratchet was amazing so very much looking forward to a great licence getting Insomniacs touch. Looked great. Can't wait to see more.
