Why Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Needs to Be on GOG and Why It’s the Best Superhero Game Ever
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 isn’t just the best Spider-Man game—it’s arguably the greatest superhero game of all time. Developed by Insomniac Games, this sequel builds on the strong foundations of Spider-Man (2018) and Miles Morales, delivering a jaw-dropping story, next-level combat, and dual protagonists that elevate the experience to something truly special. A release on GOG would give fans a DRM-free way to preserve and enjoy this modern classic for years to come.
What makes Spider-Man 2 so legendary is the emotional storytelling. Peter Parker and Miles Morales both get equal spotlight, with their narratives seamlessly intertwined. The inclusion of Venom and the Symbiote suit storyline adds weight and darkness, while also enhancing gameplay with new powers and mechanics. The emotional stakes are high, and the character development is deep and mature—rare for any superhero game.
Then there’s the gameplay: swinging through a larger, more detailed New York (including Queens and Brooklyn), the freedom and speed are unmatched. Combat is slick, responsive, and varied, with the addition of Symbiote powers and Miles’ bio-electricity adding more depth.
Visually, the game is stunning. The city feels alive, the weather and lighting effects are incredible, and the attention to detail in character design is movie-level quality.
Putting Spider-Man 2 on GOG would ensure it’s not trapped behind DRM or console exclusivity forever. It’s a superhero masterpiece—one that deserves to be preserved, replayed, and appreciated for generations.
