New information suggests that Insomniac Games is working on a third game alongside Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Marvel's Wolverine. Insomniac Games confirmed that its developing Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Marvel's Wolverine at a PlayStation Showcase event in 2021.
Spider-Man 2 is set to release later this year on October 20, while Wolverine doesn’t have a set launch window. Insomniac Games shared a lengthy gameplay demo of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 at 2023’s PlayStation Showcase, and it recently released a new story trailer for the game. There seems to be a ton of hype for both titles, but it looks like Insomniac Games is also working on a third unannounced game.
As seen in the video, Erin Eberhardt has confirmed that Insomniac Games is working on an unannounced AAA game. As both Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Marvel's Wolverine have been officially revealed, it appears that Insomniac Games is working on a third title alongside the other two titles. Erin is working as a Project Director on this unannounced title, but the video doesn’t share any further details on the game. Fans should note that things can change at any time during the development process, so they should wait for Sony to officially reveal this title.
It's highly likely that Insomniac Games is working on multiple projects at the same time. Many developers are probably working on more than 1 title at a time, as it's likely for the next game to be in pre-production while a majority of the team works on the one currently in production. As of now, there is no information on this game’s production status, so players may have to wait for years for it to come out.
Regardless of when it releases, this new game will likely be a PS5 exclusive, unless it ends up being a multiplayer focused live-service title as Sony previously revealed plans to release live-service games on both PS5 and PC at launch, allowing the game to reach a much wider audience. Fans have already seen this policy in action, as Helldivers 2, Fairgames, and Concord are also coming to PC on day one, with Marathon by Bungie coming to Xbox as well.
A job posting from 2022 revealed that Insomniac Games is hiring for a multiplayer project, which could be referring to the game in question. However, it could also be a new release in the Ratchet & Clank series, or a completely new IP from Insomniac Games.
