PlayStation 5 trailer

Sony officially unveiled the PlayStation 5 on 11 June. One of the surprises of the digital conference is that Insomniac’s wildly popular Spider-Man is getting a sequel during the launch window of the PS5. The developer gave viewers a peek at the game with a stellar one-minute trailer.

Spider-Man: Miles Morales Standalone game

Initially there was confusion as to whether Spider-Man: Miles Morales was a full-blown sequel, add-on DLC or a remake of the 2018 title. The developer cleared up the confusion on Twitter stating it is in fact a standalone game.

Industry veteran Jason Schreier clarified further, and claimed the release will be similar to 2017’s Uncharted: The Lost Legacy.

The title was a standalone story from UC4, and was about eight hours in length. Perhaps Miles Morales will have a greater emphasis on side quests.

Spider-Man: Miles Morales release date

Spider-Man: Miles Morales does not have an official release date. Insomniac has stated that it will make its debut in the last three months of 2020 which appears to line up with the release window of the PS5.

There is little known about the plot of the upcoming title but the trailer does drop some hints. It appears that most of the story will focus on Miles Morales origin and Peter Parker passing the torch.

The popular character also starred in the academy award winning picture Into the Spider-Verse which debuted in 2018. This may have had an influence on the PS5 title.
