At Tech4gamers, I cover all sorts of gaming news. Whether it’s a leak of any upcoming game or an update, an announcement, or a rumour, I like to write about it all. Over the weekend, I sit and write features where I talk about games that I miss or want to see return.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 had a great start last year as the biggest exclusive from Sony, selling over 2.5 million copies in a day. Two weeks later, this release had crossed over 5 million sales.

A few months later, another milestone has been shared by Insomniac Games today, confirming that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has now reached 10 million sales.

Why it matters: This makes Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 one of the fastest-selling superhero games. It could eventually become the best-seller of this genre.

Today, we're honored to celebrate an amazing milestone: Marvel's #SpiderMan2PS5 has surpassed 10 million units sold, bringing the game series sales to an astounding 50 million units! 🎉

In addition to this milestone, Insomniac Games’ entire franchise has reached a new record. All three games combined, the Marvel’s Spider-Man series has sold about 50 million units, making it one of PlayStation’s biggest and most valuable IPs to date.

Thank you for the support and making this spectacular journey possible.

This is a massive achievement for all the developers who worked hard on the game. A recent leak suggested that the development cost of the game was around $315 million.

While this may be an insane budget, Insomniac Games’ spending appears to have been worth it. At this rate, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 will become one of Sony’s most profitable current-gen titles to date.

The game received a new demo for PlayStation Plus subscribers recently. With PlayStation providing access to the game’s intro segment for free, more players might buy it once the game goes on sale.

New Game+ is scheduled to arrive on 7th March, expanding the Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 package further. This sales update also means that roughly one in every five of 50 million PS5 owners bought a copy of the superhero title.

According to recent leaks, at least three DLCs are planned for the game. This content could begin arriving by the end of the year, with a Game of the Year edition bundling all the content together for the complete version later.

Meanwhile, Insomniac Games is said to be working on a PC port already. Expected to arrive by late 2024 or early 2025, this release will invite an even wider audience to the sequel to one of PlayStation’s biggest PS4 games.

Overall, Insomniac Games has found incredible success with this release. With future discounts and promotions expected to arrive in the coming months, we expect even better sales figures for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 in the long run.
