While eagerly awaiting the release of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 later this year, a fan recreated an iconic scene from the game's reveal trailer inside a LEGO game. The main heroes of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 may be seen working together just like the original trailer depicted a few years ago.
Marvel's Spider-Man 2 was first announced during the PlayStation Showcase on September 9, 2021, which highlighted several PlayStation 5 games such as Gran Turismo 7 and Forspoken. The sequel will take place after the events of Marvel's Spider-Man and Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, bringing Peter Parker and Miles Morales into a battle against the fan favorite villain, Venom. Updates on Marvel's Spider-Man 2 would remain scarce until the release of Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales for PC in November 2022. This past December, Sony Interactive Entertainment and Insomniac Games confirmed Marvel's Spider-Man 2 would release in fall 2023.
Reddit user u/AbbreviationsOk7150 recreated an incredible shot from the Marvel's Spider-Man 2 reveal trailer inside LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2. LEGO versions of Miles Morales and Peter Parker may be seen standing side by side in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2's Manhattan hub world. Although LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2's depiction of New York City is different to the one found in Marvel's Spider-Man, the trailer shot was faithfully replicated in the screenshot captured by u/AbbreviationsOk7150.
In the Marvel's Spider-Man 2 reveal trailer, Peter Parker and Miles Morales are shown fighting together against several enemies in New York City. The pair use their web abilities to incapacitate their enemies before turning their attention to a dark alley. The trailer would focus on Peter Parker and Miles Morales for a few seconds as they prepare for an attack from Venom. The user recreated this iconic moment in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 by panning the camera into a position where only Peter and Miles are seen against a tall building serving as a backdrop.
U/AbbreviationsOk7150's screenshot is a fun recreation of one of the most exciting trailers from the PlayStation 5 generation thus far. The screenshot reminds fans of how far the Spider-Man franchise has come in gaming these past few years. LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 released just one year before Marvel's Spider-Man in 2018, and the current series will continue in the third installment this fall.
The recreated trailer shot reminded some fans about the lack of information regarding Marvel's Spider-Man 2, and that sentiment may grow as time goes on without more news. Summer 2023 may be the perfect time for Sony and Insomniac Games to reveal more information about Marvel's Spider-Man 2, however, as a rumored PlayStation Showcase could deliver an exciting new trailer to prepare Spider-Man fans for the fall launch.
Marvel's Spider-Man 2 launches in fall 2023 for PlayStation 5.
