WhileSpider-Man 2earned much critical acclaim and quickly became one of Insomniac’s highest-selling titles, players decried not being able to replay story missions without creating a whole new save file, which in turn left them without much to do after clearingSpider-Man 2’s various side-activities the first time.
Insomniac addressed these complaints by announcing aNew Game Plus update forSpider-Man 2in December, which would also add new accessibility features and cosmetic options for Peter Parker and Miles Morales. It was later revealed that this update would go live on March 7, allowing players to relive parts ofSpider-Man 2’s emotionally gripping story campaign or start the whole plot over again with all of their unlocked suits and abilities carried over.
