No Plans for a Marvel's Spider-Man 2 PS5 Demo, Says Insomniac

Doesn’t really need one tbf. If you’ve played the other two games then you know exactly what you’re getting.

Who even asked for one ?

There's already two demos available, just boot up either of the two Marvel's Spider-Man games 🤷

What’s the point? Just play 1 and MM.
Edit: well, I’m completely unoriginal it seems, lol.

Massive red flag

A demo would be for those that haven't played the first game. I know I haven't. I just don't care for many super hero games.

There is a 5 hour demo for this and it's called Spiderman: Miles Morales

I'm just glad they are not selling early access to their games. Why people would pay more just to play an even worse version of a game is beyond me

I don't mind actually.

It's going to be awesome so I rather wait and play the the whole thing in all its spidery glory 👍🏻

I wasnt expecting a demo. Square Enix have been on a roll with demos of all their games which I really appreciate. But it's not need here.

To put it more "constructively"

I'm surprised this tweet has spawned an entire article, for the reasons mentioned by the author.

No demo needed to be sold on this lol

Love Insomniac but boo👎

Demos/trials should be required from AAA on digital stores.

Gotta be honest I'm still slightly Expecting a delay on this one.

Uh there already is a demo
Just play Spiderman 1 😄

Will play 2 as soon as it'll be free on ps+ or something un some years

What's there to "demo"?

• Newcomers: play the first game(s), they'll provide more than enough content for a test drive.
• Returning players: if you're returning, then you already like it, otherwise no additional demo will change your mind.

It would be a waste of time and resources to make one, since the sequel is very similar gameplaywise to the first games.
Not to mention, no matter how close to perfection they would make it, even minor issues would no doubt instigate a lot of social media drama, backlash against the devs, and even threats....
They took the best approach from any p.o.v.

@Volsung_Fjorgynnson No, they absolutely should not.

Demos require either an entirely separate team to produce, or the devs have to stop working on the game itself to make a demo. It's not just copy/paste a section of the full game. A demo is, for all intents and purposes, a game on its own that require all the same things a full game requires.

I could be wrong, but I don't recall there being a demo for the first one or Miles Morales, so this comes as no surprise. While it's nice that companies like Square Enix and Capcom usually always have one for their games, the lack of a demo for most PlayStation Studios game is to be expected.

I don't need one or even wanted one, but this did remind me of something that Sony said was supposed to be a new requirement when the new PS Plus tiers were coming out. "Game developers are reportedly now required to create timed game demos for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers. Going forward, any game that costs $34 or higher must have an accompanying game trial for Sony's subscription service that lasts for at least 2 hours." Oops....

@GeneJacket that just not true bro XD

Demos are a double-edged swords. Like cybersecurity, you only have to be wrong one time. Wonder what the percentage of games that get good publicity from demos? This game is going to sell on name recognition, regardless.

No need for a Spiderman 2.spiderman is amazing.word up son

So this is to hit piece for Starfield. Got it.

I would just like to know how similar it is to the first two. There are things I enjoyed (story, character development, combat, motion) and things I heavily disliked (collectibles and needless busy work, certain characters, generic open world filler).

After Elden Ring, I believe my standards for games have shot right up. Nothing as of yet has even touched it.

@Bentleyma absolutely! They were great games played them both. But I have a bit of Spiderman fatigue. I'm going to pass on this 3rd entry. Just so much more to play that's different right now. Wolverine I am looking forward too and that's one of the best marvel characters to me and it hasent been over saturated.

@Triumph741 i hope this wasn't serious ?

there wasn't a demo for any of the other spiderman games , i'd rather they finish the game so its not delayed any more.

I mean, you can demo Ragnarok despite basically knowing what to expect if you've played the first game. So not sure why the idea of a demo is so crazy. Honestly it'd be nice to know what's changed.

Man, remember when macho man Randy Savage was in the Spider Man movie? Anyway I'm really enjoying WWE 2K14. They certainly don't make em like that anymore...

@LordBakemono that totes am true bro XD

I'm begging all of you, learn even the tiniest sliver of how development works before running your mouths.
