Summary
Striking a balance between crime-fighting and everyday life is a common struggle for any good superhero, but one hilariousMarvel’s Spider-Man 2clip takes things one step further by having Miles Morales become “unemployed” after a particularly difficult battle. Both Miles and his mentor Peter Parker return asfully playable characters inSpider-Man 2, which finally launched to rave reviews on the PlayStation 5 last month. Fans have praisedSpider-Man 2for its darker, more emotional storyline and refined gameplay, which lets players explore an expanded open-world version of New York City with a higher level of speed and adrenaline than Insomniac’s previous two Marvel titles.
Like most open-world games,Marvel’s Spider-Man 2grants players the freedom to tackle the game’s many activites at their own pace, and this has naturally led to fans sharing their funny experiences online. Many of these wild antics happen entirely by accident, with players reporting glitches that causeMiles to transform into a floating white cubewhile swinging above the streets of Brooklyn, Peter to perform the infamous “Naruto Run” through the streets of Queens, or even for the briefly-playable Venom to roam Manhattan - at least until a recent update patch removed this to a mixed response from fans.
OtherSpider-Man 2fans have joked that Miles is simply following in his teacher Peter’s footsteps, as the older Spidey’s struggles with holding a steady job are a constant source of drama and comedy throughout Insomniac’s Marvel games. Meanwhile, Miles faces his own questions about his future inMarvel’s Spider-Man 2, and similarly has to balance the pressure of getting into college while stepping into his own as the main Spider-Man of the Insomniac universe going forward.
It looks like Miles is off to a rough start asthe primary Insomniac Spider-Man, at least according to Ssp021’s recent clip that shows him literally getting knocked into unemployment after a tough battle with a Symbiote. At least the young web-slinger won’t have to worry about finances while looking for a new job, asMarvel’s Spider-Man 2has already sold over 5 million copies worldwide in its first month.
