In what has become an unfortunately common practice from Sony and third-party developers, it has been announced that Spider-Man will be a PlayStation exclusive character when he is released in Marvel’s Avengers sometime in early 2021. The character, which was not shown off in any form, will “debut with an in-game event that will introduce him to the wider world of Marvel’s Avengers.”
The announcement has emphasized that it will be “Crystal Dynamics’ take on Spider-Man” meaning things may not be quite the same as most fans expect but the character will feature a number of costumes, a unique move-set, and a special upgrade tree. Currently Square Enix‘s Marvel’s Avengers is set to be released on the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, and Stadia on September 4th with the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 versions coming sometime this holiday season.
