A Potential Venom Spin-Off Depends on Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s Fan Feedback and Insomniac Games

Venom takes center stage as the antagonist of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. In the past, we have seen this happen in Sam Raimi’s Spiderman 3 as well. While Venom is not just a supervillain but a beloved anti-hero, fans have always wanted more of his story. This was exercised by Marvel when they released not one but two movies on him.

Following all the appearances Venom has made, many fans have wondered if Venom will be getting his own game. Venom has been playable before, for example in Ultimate Spider-Man on the Game Boy Advance. However, ever since the launch of the recent game, many fans have started speculating a spin-off game where players will play as Venom and see a detailed portrayal of his story.

Imsomniac’s Say on Venom

A recent interview with Spider-Man 2’s Senior Narrative Director, Jon Paquette dives into the conversation about working on a Venom game. While being asked by Insider about the possibilities of a Venom game on the lines of a Miles-like spin-off, Jon’s response shocked the fans.

While things were left on a vague note, the Narrative Director said, “So, here’s what we’re doing. We’re focused on ‘Spider-Man 2,’ and what we’re gonna do is we’re gonna wait to see how the fans react.” He further added, “We’re gonna listen to the fans and we’re gonna ask ourselves, ‘Okay, what do the fans really want?'”

By saying this, he left fans to believe that there might be a Venom game in the plan. While it can’t be confirmed, claiming that they will listen to the fans, it indicates that the game is in the works considering the bold statement.

What do we learn about Venom from Marvel’s Spider-Man 2?

In Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, players get to play as Venom for a certain mission, and this states that the devs already have the character model and a few ideas in case they go forth with the game. And that’s not all. Insomniac has also created special moves and attacks with all the animations polished down. This only makes it easier to give the fans what they want in case their voices are heard.

Taking into note that the infamous antagonist has movies and an entire comic series, it seems likely that Marvel would like to expand on the story. While Miles Morales got his own game, Venom has been a part of the MCU for a longer time. And with time, he has proven himself to be one of the most influential supervillains/antiheroes in all of superhero fiction.

As we now know, the Venom in this universe has not yet met Eddie Brock. Whether Insomniac wants to introduce the character is yet unknown, but the fact that Carnage’s story has been teased shows a possibility for it being covered in a potential Venom game.

Based on the presence of Venom’s move kit, the setup of Carnage, and the potential for Eddie Brock’s story, it is suggested that the game developers have likely planned and considered the inclusion of Venom as a significant character in the game’s universe.
