Is it finally happening?

From Twitter:

It's been too long since last leak. Here's one.
Sony is working at "Untitled Spiderman PS4 Project". Trailer incoming (E3 2016?).

via Nerdleaks

Could it be a Sucker Punch project or a VR game who knows!

I did post this in a thread last year:

So... after re-purchasing Infamous Second Son, I forgot how jaw dropping and gorgeous this game is. It is arguably one of the better looking next gen titles. Let's stop playing favorites and be realistic some Studios/Devs are just a cut above the rest.
With Sony inking a deal with Marvel to bring Spider-Man to the MCU...They should seek exclusive rights and let Sucker Punch make the next Spidey game we all deserve!! Could you imagine letting Sucker Punch running free with their version of Manhattan and Spidey zipping through it!?!?! Match made in game/comic heaven. What do you think?

So we will hopefully see by E3!

I searched and could not find anything....toss me out like an empty web cartridge if so!


Edit: This is definitely a rumor! With Activision supposedly having the rights still and not being able to verify a legitimate source past NerdLeaks this is a definite wait and see but still good for conversation. Sony fix your damn leaks!

 

[JetSetRadio]

There was an amazing PS1 game.

 

[Alexious]

Wasn't NerdLeaks shut down after that GoW4 art leak?

 

[Jawbreaker]

Nerdleaks is still alive?

 

[DrGonzo615]

Would love to see a top tier spidey game....since most of the PS3/360 efforts were junk.

 

[Guymelef]

No VR please.
Sucker Punch please x2.

 

[Rich!]

are they gonna bring back the PS3 font

 

[BadWolf]

A good game would be nice.

 

[Leona Lewis]

So that's the mystery Activision exclusive.

Agent confirmed.

 

[get2sammyb]

As I posted in the other thread, Sony doesn't really publish games they don't own the IP for. I'm not sure why they'd do this?

 

[Andodalf]

Sucker punch Spiderman? yes please!

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Is this NerdLeaks or some guy that wants attention?

 

[kiguel182]

If it's a Sucker Punch game then I'm sure it's going to be great. They have the chops to make an amazing Spider-Man game.

 

[LiK]

Nerdleaks strikes again!

 

[nelsonroyale]

Hopefully not. If it is Sucker Punch though...maybe.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

An exclusive Marvel game? A console Marvel game? I find that hard to picture considering how in love Disney is with F2P.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Activision still owns the Spider-Man IP for gaming. And it makes no sense for Sony to work on it when they consistently want to own IP's for games they fund.

 

[funkystudent]

VR?

VR.

 

[Bitch Pudding]

 

[wapplew]

Spider-Man homecoming VR experience.
Just some movie marketing shit.

 

[BadWolf]

As I posted in the other thread, Sony doesn't really publish games they don't own the IP for. I'm not sure why they'd do this?

They have the movie license?

 

[narutomaki04]

Spiderman font incoming.

But can't wait to see it. Especially if it's an exclusive made by Sony

 

[bananafactory]

Probably to tie into the movie next year

 

[Anth0ny]

does it have spider-man 2 swinging?

if the answer is no, don't care.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Sucker Punch Spiderman game would be so rad.

 

[Alexious]

As I posted in the other thread, Sony doesn't really publish games they don't own the IP for. I'm not sure why they'd do this?

Well, they do own the rights to Spider-man movies... But I agree, it's thin.

 

[Leona Lewis]

Activision still owns the Spider-Man IP for gaming. And it makes no sense for Sony to work on it when they consistently want to own IP's for games they fund.

Aren't they partly funding Shenmue 3 and FFVIIR?

And what about Street Fighter V? Some selective amnesia here.

 

[zsynqx]

Interested if it's Sucker Punch

 

[Xaero Gravity]

Well, they do own the rights to Spider-man movies... But I agree, it's thin.

They have for years and that didn't stop every Spiderman game since then appearing on every platform.

 

[Baldwin_the_First]

No VR please.
Sucker Punch please x2.

This! Don't do it as a VR game, but we definitely need some expert hands on a new Spidey game., Sucker Punch would do amazing.

 

[TimmiT]

As I posted in the other thread, Sony doesn't really publish games they don't own the IP for. I'm not sure why they'd do this?

They published a couple of licensed games for Vita:

 

[bananafactory]

How is Sony making a Spider-Man game when Activision has the rights? I call BS

 

[DieH@rd]

Spiderman IP would be great fit for Sucker Punch

 

[Jacqli]

Spiderman 2 on PS2 was one of my favourite games. The web system was simply great even though many side missions were repetitive.

 

[BiggNife]

Oh man don't even tease the idea of a Sucker Punch Spider Man game if it's not happening

That would be a fucking match made in heaven

 

[Corpekata]

Aren't they partly funding Shenmue and FFVIIR?

And what about Street Fighter V? Some selective amnesia here.

Why would Sony need to partially fund a Spider-Man game?

 

[FelipeMGM]

Oh boy,

I did a post for a website talking the exact same thing you did about the deal and Sucker Punch developing last July, its just such an obvious match

 

[Guymelef]

How is Spider-man on Marvel movies when Sony has the rights?
Deals.

 

[SolidSnakex]

And what about Street Fighter V? Some selective amnesia here.

None of those games are wholly funded by Sony.

 

[Elandyll]

Activision still owns the Spider-Man IP for gaming. And it makes no sense for Sony to work on it when they consistently want to own IP's for games they fund.

If it's a tie-in for a movie (for which Sony owns the IP), I was wondering if Activision's deal would hold?
I don't think we've seen Spiderman movies tie ins from Activision? But I could be mistaken.

If real (long shot), Sucker Punch adapting Infamous to a Spiderman game would be great... potentially.

 

[Elginer]

does it have spider-man 2 swinging?

if the answer is no, don't care.

 

[Dominator]

does it have spider-man 2 swinging?

if the answer is no, don't care.

Web of Shadows swinging was ace. That game doesn't get the credit it deserves.

 

[Certinty]

I don't even know if I want Sucker Punch working on a Spider-Man game. While the gameplay may be great if it turns out to be an open world game it will be just as lifeless as the previous inFamous games unless something dramatically changes.

 

[Instro]

Platinum or bust.

 

[get2sammyb]

They have the movie license?

So? If we're to believe they passed on titles like Sunset Overdrive because they don't own the IP, why would they make a Spider-Man game?

 

[astrogamer]

Activision still owns the Spider-Man IP for gaming. And it makes no sense for Sony to work on it when they consistently want to own IP's for games they fund.

The deal with Activision should be ending by next year and I think Sony still has the movie right to Spider-Man for at least a few more years

 

[LiK]

How is Sony making a Spider-Man game when Activision has the rights? I call BS

if it's a PSVR game, then it'll be a collab with Sony.

 

[Leona Lewis]

Why would Sony need to partially fund a Spider-Man game?

They could be developing it. It's no coincidence that we've heard similar rumblings about Crash.

Between Destiny and now the CoD deal, Sony's relationship with Activision has never been stronger.

None of those games are wholly funded by Sony.

Who said this would be?

 

[Baldwin_the_First]

The nerdleaks twitter link doesn't work anymore, or is it just me?

 

[Corpekata]

Pretty sure Activision's game rights are only on Spider-Man movie games, which is why we've only seen movie spidey games lately. They don't own the rights for non-movie games, which is why things like Marvel Heroes exist with him and his supporting cast in them.
