Square Enix and Sony announced that Spider-Man will be playable exclusively in the Playstation versions of Marvel’s Avengers. As such, PC and Xbox gamers won’t be able to assume the role of their beloved “friendly neighbor.”
As Sony stated:
“The team at Crystal Dynamics, along with our partners, are overjoyed that we get to be a part of this hero’s gaming journey. We can’t wait for you to add Spider-Man to your Marvel’s Avengers roster in early 2021. And as promised, he will be available at no additional cost to owners of the base game, exclusively on PlayStation.”
Truth be told, we’ve already seen similar platform-specific exclusivities in other triple-A multiplatform games. For instance, Kratos from God of War was exclusively in the PlayStation 3 version of Mortal Kombat. Still, it’s a bummer that PC gamers won’t be able to play as Spider-Man.
Now while the game will offer an offline mode, I don’t expect a “proper” Spider-Man mod to ever release. After all, modders will have to include his exclusive moveset (which is pretty difficult). Furthermore, we don’t know whether there will be any exclusive Spider-Man missions in Marvel’s Avengers.
So yeah, bottom line is that if you were looking forward to Spider-Man, you’ll have to get the PS version. Which really sucks as the PC version will provide better visuals than PS4. As with most multiplatform games, the PC version will have better draw distance and better framerates. It will also allow for resolutions up to 4K, and will support both K&M and gamepads.
But anyway, Marvel’s Avengers releases on September 4th. Additionally, its beta phase will begin on August 14th for those that have pre-ordered the PC version. On August 21st, the beta program will be open to all PC players and run through August 23rd.

the only ps4 game i want is spiderman, its sad that sony now owns spidey.
Sony been owning Spiderman for a long time already
Yeah, but that didnt stop them to release the games on PC before…i guess exclusives truly are the only thing keeping consoles relevant.
Because activision owned the rights for spiderman games between 2000-2014 while sony owned only the movie rights, since 2014 marvel gave sony full control over the character.
Hey, if he’s in the PC code, modders could potentially put him in the game.
Pc beggars cying again https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9e4d20921747b18a7705a588b2721ed7df1b6f6d5fb402bdcdba19ff94c8d200.jpg
What are you doing on this site pro gamer oh i forgot you likes cinematic experience
Why ? its just a sh**ty practice, the game is shiet anyway lol
its not on xbox either. The amount of exclusives playstation gets get less and less with every gen.
PC can mod the character in Easily. Altho I am sure pc gamers are smart enough not to even bother with this awful looking game. It honestly looks pretty bad. I will be surprised if it gets good reviews. It looks hella budget
In my opinion, the culprit is the lighting which makes an otherwise decent-looking game look flat
They are doing their best to kill this game, way before release.
Luckily for them, plenty of dumb morons who would buy it even if the game login came with a mandatory colonoscopy
Yup, but if the game is banking of it’s longevity (like most Gass games)…and ends up being crap…it wont last enough i think. Unless something similar to Battlefront 2 happens, which was..strange, for EA standards. Looks like another Anthem in the making to me.
To be more appropriate to the times, a MANDATORY Covid-19(84) vaccine.
It gets even worse! Check out the edit to my earlier comment above for details.
I would agree with you (and you do have a strong point there) if this game was release like a decade ago when the MCU was on its top popularity…nowadays? most of the normies that were into it, move on.
No biggie.
I hope no one buys this
I wish, but too many dumb gamers out there
Far, far too many normies out there that allow these scummy practices to thrive healthily
Anything Superhero related has been pure trash since the late 90s
Spiderman: Web Of Shadows? That game still the best.
Very few exceptions
Makes no difference to me cause I already wouldn’t touch woke trash by a pile of feces that is Square Enix, but they really shouldn’t wonder why people pirate then
I hate to break it to you but most people that are bashing the game will be buying it at launch so they can LEVEL UP & Keep Up With The Joneses. Don’t believe a word most of these people say. Sad but true, the people in these comment sections ALSO like to virtue signal. In their case, Dog Whistle!!!
Riddled with hateful SJW political activist Sana Amanat’s Kamala Khan character from Disney’s failing SJW Marvel Comics and now also featuring some predictably pathetic gatekeeping from Soyny. So much cancer.
EDIT:
The news gets worse. Not only are they barring PC and Xbox gamers from having Spider-Man they’re also barring those gamers from plenty more additional content,
– “PlayStation players will have exclusive access to certain Community Challenges”
– “PlayStation players will have 30-day exclusive access to a Legendary Outfit, Legendary Emote, Epic Takedown, and nameplate for each Super Hero as they are released – this is also for the six launch heroes”
– “we also have rewards for those with a PlayStation Plus subscription. For each Super Hero added to the game post-launch, Hawkeye included, all PS Plus members will receive a free bundle that contains a Rare Outfit, nameplate, and 100 Credits to celebrate the addition of another Avenger to the roster”
– “At launch, we’ll have a free bundle for Ms. Marvel available for PS Plus members to embiggen our love for Kamala!”

True, dont forget an elastic indian (big hands) LOL
Because all teenage girls aspire to having huge oversized hands!
The character Kamala Khan has been a commercial disaster zone and yet due to the internal politics at SJW Marvel is allowed to persist. It’s been a continued money-making grift by Sana Amanat who seemingly abuses her power and influence by forcing it upon licensees as a condition of them using Marvel characters people actually care about.
SJW Marvel, as their ever-worsening sales figures show since having embraced ‘social justice’ wackos and weirdness, are utterly clueless and incompetent.
The fact they added her in the game shows how much its shiet lol, no one cares about her no one
I knew once Stan lee dies marvel is dead
I Just don’t understand the Kamala angle, this is just a blatant rip off if Reed Richards and it just looks ugly. So many females to choose from and they choose this one. Well in all honesty can you blame them? The cast is all white superheroes, WHICH THEY DID! and in order to make up for it they give you like 3-5 minority traits/characters in one. This is one giant slap in the face and they will actually get praised for this. That’s what this is about really and it makes it even more annoying. This is why i cannot stand Miles Morales to begin with, for the same reason. Representation will be the death of all of us
She’s the only superhero whose super power is being Muslim. If you’re looking to virtue signal, it doesn’t get any better than that.
Yes, It’s very disgusting. I wonder if Muslims are ok with nonsense. Cause i can guarantee that there ain’t one Muslim on that team, over at Crystal dynamics. But like you said, it’s virtue signaling at its best.
i derive pleasure at the fact when muslims are the majority they gonna purge sjws and everything they created.
Yes I agree, it’s a problem that will eventually take care of itself. Just got sit back and enjoy the ride.
Man I can’t even watch a Netflix show without it be injected with all this type of nonsense. They use to wait till season 2 start the nonsense, after they’ve reeled you in. But nowadays, it’s like 10-15 minutes, everyone is Either gay or very overly strong women, eating each other out and then saying, “I have work in the morning”. You can smell the agenda right away.

The real question, what is a Muslim in the eye of this people?!
havent you learn by now? The entertainment industry is infected with cringelords, of course they gonna choose the cringiest option.

I stop watching Gayflix, can’t stand the agenda.
yes, netflix has a gay agenda, they putting a gay character in every show and some mocked it on twitter and Netflix replied with “every single one is necessary” Necessary for what?
It gets even worse than what John revealed to us. Check out the edit to my earlier comment above for details.
can’t wait for muslims to go extinct.
Maybe they should just make this game PS4 exclusive at this rate.
As if having spiderman would save this dumpster fire
Control sony exclusive content wasn’t enabled in the PC version but dataminers found out how to play and unlock it. Could be possible that the same happens again but this game is a GaaS trash anyway.
This sht isnt even worth pirating lmao!

Hahahahaha… PC gamers will be able to play with Uncle Ben holding Thor’s hammer while casting webs if they want to.
But not me, I can’t see ONE reason to play this thing.
this is outrageous. OK, I hate Sony now.
Or how about I just stop bothering with buying SE games from here on, since they love screwing over PC/xbox gamers most of the time.
Who wants to play this sh*t anyway
