This is the next game in Insomniac's franchise, and if you've played the first two titles, you'll know that there are two Spider-Men in this world now, with both Peter Parker and Miles Morales being playable, and you're able to switch between them with ease.

Does Spider-Man 2 have multiplayer or co-op?

Unfortunately, the answer is no, Spider-Man 2 is a completely single-player experience akin to the first two games in the series. Early on, when the game was first revealed, there were rumours you and a friend could play through the game together, but this was quickly proven to be wrong by Insomniac via a Tweet reply in May 2023. 

So, while it has been quite some time since we had a great multiplayer superhero game, it looks as though we will be waiting a little while longer.
