Spider-Man 2 isn’t a co-op game, Insomniac has confirmed

Insomniac has confirmed that Spider-Man 2 won’t be a co-op game.

Speculation about the PS5 game supporting co-op began spreading on Monday, seemingly off the back of comments made by the voice actor who plays Miles Morales.

During a panel at the SacAnime convention last September, Nadji Jeter was asked if the sequel would support co-op, to which he replied: “I don’t know if it’s been announced or not, but I think so.”

The comments, which appear to be the result of a misunderstanding, seemingly flew under the radar until now, but they were widely circulated on Monday.

However, asked on Twitter if the game will be a co-op title, Insomniac quickly shot down the speculation. “Nope! It is an epic single-player adventure!” the studio said.

Earlier this month, Marvel and Insomniac released a free prequel comic for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.

Setting the scene for the upcoming sequel, it offers a look at what Peter Parker, Miles Morales and MJ Watson have been up to since the events of Spider-Man and Spider-Man: Miles Morales.

Tony Todd, who plays Venom in Spider-Man 2, recently claimed that Sony is targeting a September release date for the game.
