They will take down a new threat together before seeing what awaits them with Venom and the other Spider-Man 2 villains in the sequel later this year.

The Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 gameplay showed off a brand new wingsuit for Miles and a Venom-infused suit for Peter, confirming that you will switch between them during the story. We got to see some of Kraven’s goons, the ability to deploy rope lines to use, as well as a number of Symbiote-infused powers for Peter.

The trailer also showed off a stunning setpiece with The Lizard as we jumped between jet skis, boats, and swung over the water. The ability to perform finishers on the vehicle and to use the vehicles on the water is also a new addition, with it not being used much in the first game.
