Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is on the horizon, and webheads can now preload the sequel onto their PlayStation 5. This comes as exciting news for gamers who have been ardently waiting for this day, as they can ensure their game is ready to roll the moment it unlocks on launch day.
Sony made the official announcement on social media, sending out an exhilarating message to all: "Get ready to swing." However, there's a tiny catch. While the game can be preloaded now, it won't actually unlock until October 20 at 12 AM ET, as per the game's product page. This essentially means that while the data will be on your console, you'll still need to count down the minutes until you can dive into the web-slinging action.
It's definitely a wise move to take advantage of the preloading option. Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is a hefty title, taking up around 98GB of storage space. By preloading, you can avoid the dreaded waiting game of watching a download bar to slowly fill up and instead jump straight into the action when the clock strikes twelve.
Cost-wise, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 sells for $70 for the standard edition. For those willing to shell out an extra $10, while the digital deluxe edition at $80 offers a variety of in-game perks, including bonus items. For those who will pre-order the game, some rewards are in store. Preordering gamers will receive the Arachknight suit, the Shadow-Spider suit, and the nifty Web Grabber gadget. Additionally, they'll also be treated to three extra skill points to give them a slight edge as they begin their adventure.
