How Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Could Set Up a Venom Game

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Could Do For Venom What The First Game Did For Miles Morales

Marvel’s Spider-Man established Miles Morales’ origin, which led to his spinoff. Venom, the villain of Marvel’s Spider-Man, can be remade in the sequel.

Fans eagerly await Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 more information. A look back at the first game in the series may give some insight into what fans can expect. The first game allowed players to control characters other than Peter Parker. This was an interesting feature. Miles Morales was one of the characters that got his own spinoff game. This helped to bridge the gap between Marvel’s Spider-Man and its sequel. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 could easily do the same thing for Venom, one of its most important characters.

The trailer for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 clearly shows that Venom will be the game’s main antagonist. Venom is known for his long history of being a villain in comics and movies, and video games. Players won’t have to play as Peter all the time. The game might also allow them to see Eddie Brock’s point of view.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Can Echo Miles’ Journey with Eddie Brock

Marvel’s Spider-Man introduces Miles at the campaign rally, where Jefferson Davis is killed in an attack. Players can take control of Miles to play linear stealth and interact with him as NPCs while controlling Peter Parker. Marvel’s Spider-Man‘s tale explains how Miles acquires his spider powers and lays the foundation for the spinoff Spider-Man: Miles Morales. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 could do the same with Eddie throughout the game.

Although Eddie Brock may appear to be a villain at first, his motivations for fighting Spider-Man tend to be more personal than ideological. Venom is known for his willingness to fight alongside Spider-Man to defeat a larger threat such as Carnage. The game may show Eddie’s transformation from villain to antihero in the same manner as the first game. It is possible to play Venom in some parts of the game.

Venom has been a playable character in Spider-Man games past

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is far from being the first Spider-Mangame that allows players to take control of Venom. In 2005, Ultimate Spider-Man split both the story as well as the gameplay equally between Peter Parker (now Eddie Brock) and Venom. Venom starts as a villain but gradually becomes a hero. Spider-Man Friends or Foe allowed players to control Venom, and other Spidey villains, in co-op mode as long as they have defeated them in boss fights. Venom is also popular in other Marvel games.

Venom is also available in Spider-Mangames. It has been played in Marvel titles Marvel Ultimate Alliance and Marvel’s Midnight Suns. Venom, one of the most popular Spider-Man villains, and anti-heroes in Marvel comics make this logical. The chance to play a whole spinoff game with Venom would be a huge draw for fans. A standalone Venom game would make sense if Insomniac wants to create more games within Marvel’s Spider-Man universe.
