- Spider-Man 2 has been out for almost a year.
- The game was leaked on PC last year, and Sony has started to take these builds down nearly eight months after the leaks ran rampant.
- An insider suggests that this is indicative of the official PC port’s incoming announcement.
Spider-Man 2 was among the most significant releases last year, selling over 10 million units just four months after its launch. Like other first-party titles, this PlayStation release is expected to arrive on PC after enjoying much success on the PS5.
While a recent leak suggested that Spider-Man 2 would be released for PC by 2025, it seems Sony is moving faster than anticipated. Recent evidence has even suggested that an announcement could come later this month.
Why it matters: Insomniac’s first Spider-Man release was a huge deal for PlayStation’s push into the PC gaming market. The gaming giant will hope to find similar success with the sequel.
One of the most reliable insiders in the industry, Shpeshal_Nick, previously noted that PlayStation would announce Spider-Man 2 for PC soon.
He recently elaborated on this statement and shared another tweet reporting Sony’s action against leaked PC builds of the game. For context, Spider-Man 2 became fully playable on PC after a large Insomniac hack led to files leaking all over the internet.
Sony had not done much about these leaks, but eight months later, the gaming giant is finally pursuing legal action. Nick believes this is a sign that the PC port is finally on the way since Sony would not randomly decide to take action so long after the initial leaks.
This was why I’m pretty sure we’re seeing the PC port at the State of Play.

A PlayStation event is already rumored for September, so an announcement could be made in just a matter of weeks. Going by PlayStation’s typical release schedule, an announcement this month would mean a release window of early 2025 for the PC version.
Sony is also gearing up to announce the PS5 Pro. As such, the gaming giant could reveal enhancements for Spider-Man 2 on consoles alongside the PC port.
Moreover, God of War Ragnarok’s PC release is right around the corner. An announcement for the next port could help create further excitement among PC gamers and keep them on the edge of their seats after they are done with Kratos’ latest adventure.
