In recent chatter about Insomniac Games’ next big chapter, Marvel’s Spider-Man 3, Yuri Lowenthal, who reprises his role as Peter Parker, has dropped some intriguing hints. According to Lowenthal, fans can rest assured that Peter Parker will remain a central figure, dismissing fears that he might be pushed to the sidelines in the forthcoming game.
In a chat with The Direct, Lowenthal was pressed about what role Peter will play in Spider-Man 3. He confidently assured fans by saying, “You’ve managed to touch upon the one topic I can speak on, and I can guarantee, Peter’s not going anywhere. He’s definitely in the mix for the next game, and I assure you, he won’t just be lounging on the couch.”
The grapevine has been buzzing with leaks and teases, hinting that Spider-Man 3 will present players with a roster of characters to engage with, including Cindy Moon, also known as Silk. Alleged alpha gameplay footage leaked in the notorious ransomware attack on Insomniac provides backhand confirmation of these developments.
As for when we might dive into this blockbuster web-slinging escapade, if the timelines of past releases are any hint, we could be waiting for the next-generation PlayStation—potentially the PS6. Meanwhile, gamers are eagerly awaiting Insomniac’s next release, Marvel’s Wolverine, although the studio is keeping its release date under wraps.
