Insomniac Games has yet to detail Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, but thanks to Venom voice actor Tony Todd, we know that it’ll be “massive.”
In response to a fan, who asked Todd how long he has known about Spider-Man 2, the actor tweeted:
2 months or so. Game is massive. That’s why it won’t come out till. 2023

Following the PlayStation Showcase, Insomniac Games said that it is delighted to work with Todd alongside returning actors Yuri Lowenthal and Nadji Jeter, both of whom will reprise their roles in Spider-Man 2.
“We’re so happy to announce that Tony Todd (of Candyman fame) will be voicing the symbiote-fueled Venom in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2,” Insomniac Games wrote on the PlayStation Blog. “We’ve been fortunate to work with so many incredibly talented actors in our Spider-Man games, and Tony has been such a wonderful addition to the cast.”
Insomniac Games has promised that Spider-Man 2 will “push” the capabilities of the PlayStation 5, and will feature all-new stories for Peter and Miles.
“Just as in our previous Spider-Man games, we not only want to tell a great Super Hero story, but also deliver a compelling human story, one full of heart and humor that dives deep into the people behind the mask,” said the studio. “Much of the development team that brought you Marvel’s Spider-Man is returning to produce Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, including Bryan Intihar (creative director) and Ryan Smith (game director).”
Insomniac Games is also working on Marvel’s Wolverine. Both Spider-Man 2 and Wolverine have yet to be dated.
