YouTube’s ‘Combative 117’ has shared a comparison video between the PS5 and the latest version of the unofficial PC port of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. And, the results are quite impressive.
Now as you will see, the images are a bit low-res. The purpose of this video though is not to compare the textures. Its main purpose is to show how close to the PS5 version the unofficial PC port actually is.
I could spot some surfaces that still lack their original textures. And the water looks worse than the one in PS5. For the most part, though, the unofficial PC port is almost identical to the PS5 version.
Speaking of the water, the team behind the PC port will be adding Ray Tracing in its next build. This should greatly improve the quality of reflections. As such, the water and the tall buildings will look better.
Again, it’s really impressive what this modding team has managed to create. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 PC Brazil is based on the PC dev build that was leaked in December 2023. The team has basically reverse-engineered the entire game. And yes, you can play it from start to finish.
As I’ve already reported, the latest version of the game no longer stutters like crazy. So, on a high-end PC system, you can have a smooth gaming experience. However, there are still some graphical glitches.
In case you’re wondering, no. I still don’t believe it’s worth trying it. Once the team adds the RT reflections and fixes most of its visual glitches, it will be at an enjoyable stage. We are getting there though. By the end of 2024, I expect this unofficial PC port to be really polished, and on par in every way with the PS5 version. Also, let’s hope that we’ll get support for DLSS or FSR.
Finally, Sony hasn’t revealed anything official about bringing Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 to PC. Still, we should expect it to hit the PC in FY 2025. Or at least that’s what the recent Insomniac leak hinted at.
Stay tuned for more!

Woke trash. It has a huge sweet baby stamp on it. I wouldn’t play it even if it’s free.

Looks like more overrated Sony garbage to me and a huge rip off of Arkham games.

i hate queers they are so insufferable.
This is so forced.
The police that didnt present in a big event happening on NY city is very odd and out of place (only firefighter coming). The one detaining Sandman are not even Police officer , that is so weird.
Nixxes (or whoever) gonna do the PC port will have big shoes to fill and huge expectations to meet and most likely it’s gonna be released broken.
SM and Miles Morales were never fully patched, you still need to disable SMT/HT.
the game will come out in 2025 and will run just as bad as this build and the fckers will call that “optimization”
i still cant figure out how this is a ps5 game, it looks like a ps4 game, probably because ps5 has no games.
PS5 was a scam! Next-gen may be worse knowing what they can get away with.
i dont think there will be a next gen, it will be cloud subscription service, maybe they can inch out one more gen but thats it.
Im agree actually, although never have PS4, but that old era of open world gaming still could be felt here. The separation between story play area and the open world area still present
PAH! This was just images. A video comparison would’ve been much more indicative. By the way, John, your site is one of my favourite….. discovered it last year. Keep it up.
it’s quite funny seeing losers here getting triggered over a game!
you named your user name over two users who dont like each other, one of each is a troll and the other is stupid enough to respond to you.
oh dear, you triggered, hun? You and dagoat fighting again?

dagoat is trolling, so it is you who takes the bait, you fcking moron.
aw, did dagoat not let you go on top last night? is that why you’re in a bad mood?
You are wasting my time, i am blocking you
coward. not really a surprise, you racists and bigots can’t handle it when you are challenged. More people should block you and your boyfriend.
AH SH*T i forgot to block you, ill do it now.
also you downvoted me for saying that i dont get how this is a ps5 game when it looks exactly like the ps4 game so they did it due to lack of ps5 games, imagine getting triggered by something as tame as that. Sony pony fanboy?
They need to make a Spider-Babe game. I’d play that…
Dont worry, mods incoming
knowing that spider-man 3 will be negro galore with Miles being the main protagonist and Peter… well… is hanging back… I tend to believe, people who actually have a brain left in this world will not support this woke trash anymore.. Spider-man 2 was balancing on grotesque.. the third one will be the biggest loss in the entire series. I like spider-man because its peter parker, for me. But they’re shoving miles in every hole they can find. I hope that legit someone breaks into baby inc and burns that sh*t stain company to the ground with the CEO and its employee within it. They literally destroyed and am destroying the entire gaming industry. With their anti-white sh*t. They expect whites to bow down and accept everyone, yet those negroes get to say “nah bruh you are white, we dont want you”. yeah f*k that. Time for a riot I say.
their next game is wolverine and they already blackwashed a character with the bug eyed black woman that appears in many games because she is the wife of that dude who makes super hero movies.
This thing is over 250gb for one game that’s sp only seems crazy. Wonder if sony has a plan to go after these guys at some point.
is the console version that big? Seems to me this is bloat from the fact it was a in studio build of the game.
I read that the console was like 90gb somewhere.
Looking at the file structure myself there are still many uncompressed asset from PS5 and probably unused asset are there. Also quite a lot of leftover library file still present. For a debug build and not final build its quite normal to be that big
Isn’t unofficial port just another work for pirated version?
when the original didnt even exist in the market yet, what can be pirated here?. Its just unofficial port
Im not sure whats funnier between people complaining about games they dont play/buy or not being able to complain about the gameplay and only being able to deliver surface level criticism about screenshots. I think the only thing stopping me from playing this is that I’m waiting for the previous two entries to hit humble bundle or drop under $20.
why would someone play/buy a game the don’t want to play/support?
I think its for the engagement farming. you get more clicks and views if you can be outwardly negative about a thing you probably do like or if youre able to tie it to some other controversial subject.
Try it for testing purpose, and it actually quite playable. Drop frames and glitch here and there but still an awesome port job done by fan and hobbyist. Visual could be looks great but also sometimes low res asset present due to late high res texture streaming (already using SSD 990 Pro on Gen 4 x4 PCIe lane). Overall not bad for fan port.
