Marvel’s Spider-Man Game Of The Year Edition Announced

Confirming a retailer leak, Sony and Insomniac have announced a Game of the Year Edition for Marvel’s Spider-Man on PS4. The Spider-Man GOTY Edition includes all three episodes of the City That Never Sleeps DLC, and it’s available in stores and digitally starting today for $40.

The special edition comes almost one year from the game’s original release date of September 7. Spider-Man enjoyed a positive critical reception, including in GameSpot’s Spider-Man review. Edmond Tran praised its emotionally charged story, web-slinging, and dynamic combat. The three DLC episodes continue the story after the main events of the game, as Spidey and his ally Black Cat deal with the villain Hammerhead.

Marvel’s Spider-Man was a huge success for both Sony and Insomniac, and has now become Insomniac’s last game as an independent developer. Possibly due in part to Spider-Man’s massive (and PS4-exclusive) success, Sony recently acquired Insomniac Games. It also appeared as one of GameSpot’s Best Games of 2018.

“Marvel’s Spider-Man isn’t just one of our favorite PS4 games of 2018, it’s one of the best titles to come out this year,” wrote Jordan Ramee. “Between the traversal mechanics, acrobatic combat, and story about a young man trying to shoulder a city’s worth of responsibility, Insomniac’s newest game captures the essence of what it’s like to be Spider-Man.”
