Some new Spider-Man 2 screenshots have been revealed, giving fans a look at a few of the locales seen in the upcoming PlayStation 5 game. One such area will be missing something, however — the famous Chrysler Building.
Why won’t the Chrysler Building appear in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2?
The New York Times revealed the images as well as the fact that the iconic Chrysler Building won’t be in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. Despite it appearing in the original game (though not in 2020’s Miles Morales-focused follow-up game), Insomniac apparently once again could not reach a copyright agreement with the Chrysler Building’s current owners for the upcoming sequel.
Check out the Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 screenshots in the tweet below:
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is the sequel to 2018’s Marvel’s Spider-Man and 2020’s Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales. Developed by Insomniac, the sequel will feature a variety of famous Spider-Man villains, including Kraven the Hunter and Venom, the latter of which will be voiced by Candyman star Tony Todd. The trailer released earlier this year shows off some of the Symbiote’s powerful new abilities while teasing that Peter is becoming more aggressive as a result of its influence. The game is set to release for the PlayStation 5 on Friday, October 20.
