Also why not show us the so call "improvment" so we can decide if it is worth it or not before commiting to buy the ultimate edition
Clarification from James Stevenson of Insomniac Games
This is quoted from a post by Insomniac's James Stevenson on another forum:
Here's the PlayStation.Blog post that he is referring to
See the Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales new gameplay demo
Coming to PS5 and PS4; PS5 Ultimate Edition detailed.blog.playstation.com
This sucks, so no free upgrade for the original Spider-Man, not even a simple one?
Remastered version - paid upgrade
Higher fps/resolution - free BC upgrade
At what resolution and frame rate?You'll still be able to play the original PS4 Spider-Man game on PS5 through backward compatibility.
This sums it up well.
☝ Beat me to it. That's fucking hilarious. Xbox social media team on fire lately.
Apologies sir, i was not aware and i did use search feature to look for thread
Just eyeballing PS5 boost mode now. Will they go out of their way to make it less than it can be so as not to compete with re-masters.
The PS3 to PS4 remaster is what I would expect from PS5 boost for PS4 games. Higher resolution, improved iq, improved framerate.The remaster is a complete upgrade, similar to what the last of us 1 remaster was compared to the PS3 version.

Getting PS3 to PS4 games running was a complete rewrite due to distinct differences in console architecture. This is no longer the case, times change, expectations change.
Yeah I know, SonyYou expect to get all that for free ...
It's a weird situation.Sony confirms no free rides for loyal customers.
Shit on Sony week.Why are X fanboys all over a PS exclusive thread?
Shit Sony week.
To play PS4 Spiderman: find a copy or download for $10Fixed. They have been stepping in it all week to be fair - quite a run they are on.
This remaster stuff is horrible. Couldn’t have handled it worse.
Best case: give it free as a thank you to loyal customers
Next best case: Give it free with MM to owners of the original
Barely acceptable case: sell it for a nominal fee to owners of the original ($10?)
Absolute worst case: what they are doing
To play PS4 Spiderman: find a copy or download for $10
To play PS5 Spiderman Remastered (which many gamers already have a PS4 copy): pay $70
Buy it againI already actually bought it twice (strangely the GOTY edition was cheaper than the season pass when I wanted it)
Buy it again
How about $20?
How about $20?
I'll even do Insomniac's work for them which if any employees are watching this thread, they can cut and paste it in Twitter in April 2021.
Good news Spidey fans!
Insomniac is pleased to announce Spiderman Remastered is now available for download on PS5 for $20!
i hadn't heard that about no standalone copy available. ya its bleh and just kind of a turn off... oh well.It's a weird situation.
- There's a free Miles Morales upgrade
- If Sony/Insomniac want to make a stand the remastered game deserves a fee because they put a lot of work into it, that's fine
- Yet they paywall it behind the $70 Ultimate Edition, or you have to buy the MM game and then do a $20 upgrade which is the same as just getting $70 Ultimate right off the bat
What a money grab hoping tons of PS gamers just buy the $70 game.
And they claim no standalone version. Ok, we'll see next year if a $20 downloadable copy pops up.

So, Spider-Man Remastered on PS5 will be available separately as an optional purchase for those who purchased the standard version of Spider-Man: Miles Morales on either PS4 or PS5.
Perhaps it's best to think of Spider-Man Remastered as an add-on DLC pack for Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
Doesn’t matter. It is unnecessary and transparent cash grab exploiting a supercharged IP.I don't see how making SM remastered available only with MM is any different than when you could get FC3 classic only if you bought FC5.
Luckily I dont see the rest of the industry following this. I see them laughing at Sony and using this as an example of what not to do.Doesn’t matter. It is unnecessary and transparent cash grab exploiting a supercharged IP.
The worst part is that it’s exploiting the current and loyal user base. A kick in the nuts instead of a thank you. Not only that it sets a benchmark for the industry to follow. It’s shit and there are no two ways about it.

MS is releasing a lot of free Series X / S upgrades to Xbox One titles this fall that I bet have at least the level of enhancements that Sony is making PS4 owners of Spider-man pay an extra $50 for:Give me a Ghost of Tsushima upgrade.
Also : Reminder Xbox owners are getting a Forza Horzion upgrade... A game that was released the Christmas before the last one.
Give me a break, Sony.
There are more, those are just the ones from the top of my head. What is Sony doing in response? What PS5 enhancements are they going to bring to PS4 titles?
