As the much-anticipated Marvel's Spider-Man 2 game gears up for its release on PlayStation 5, speculation about a potential third installment is rampant. Ben Arfmann, the director of Marvel's Spider-Man 2, recently opened up about the future of the franchise. This article dives deep into his comments, as well as other statements from Insomniac Games, to explore the likelihood of a Marvel's Spider-Man 3 for the PS5. Building the Spider-Verse: A Recap of Insomniac's Contributions Insomniac Games has intricately woven a Spider-Verse that fans have eagerly embraced. Their first game, Marvel's Spider-Man, not only offered a dynamic web-slinging experience but also laid the foundation for Miles Morales, another beloved character. In 2020, the spin-off Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales further expanded the universe, paving the way for the upcoming sequel, Marvel's Spider-Man 2. What Lies Ahead: The Mystery of Marvel’s Spider-Man 3 The sequel, Marvel's Spider-Man 2, is slated to feature both Peter Parker and Miles Morales. Given the franchise's tendency to hint at future developments, fans are curious about what might come next. While the sequel will see our heroes face off against Venom and a host of other villains, it naturally leads to questions about future installments. Insomniac’s Take on a Possible Third Installment In an interview with io9, Ben Arfmann provided some insights, albeit cautiously. While emphasizing his excitement for the upcoming release of Marvel's Spider-Man 2, he noted that they're "so lucky to get to tell more stories." However, Arfmann also made it clear that discussions about the third installment are currently not on the table. For the time being, the focus remains on the sequel slated for October 20 release. Additional Comments from the Insomniac Team Senior Writer Lauren Mee and Director of Community and Marketing James Stevenson also chimed in. Stevenson intriguingly hinted at a "post-credits scene," leaving fans to speculate what future stories might unfold. Lauren Mee expressed hopes that the new game would leave players wanting more, suggesting the team has long-term plans for the franchise. Marvel’s Spider-Man: A Track Record of Teases It's worth noting that both previous games in the series included significant teases for future stories. From Miles Morales revealing his spider-powers to Peter Parker to the inclusion of Norman Osborn and his mysterious plans for his son, Harry, Insomniac has a history of planting seeds for future stories. When Could Spider-Man 3 Become a Reality? Given that there were two to three years between the release dates of the first two games, a similar timeframe might be expected for a third installment. Spider-Man 2 is already getting positive early reviews, which bodes well for the continuation of the franchise. Final Thoughts While the Insomniac team remains tight-lipped about the specifics of a third installment, their willingness to hint at future developments suggests that Marvel's Spider-Man 3 could well be a possibility, depending on the success of the upcoming sequel. For now, fans will have to content themselves with Marvel's Spider-Man 2, which releases on October 20 for the PS5. Also Read:
