From Evil Spider-Man to the Lizard Return: Top 5 Predictions That Could Spoil Sony Fans for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

The Sony PlayStation 2023 Showcase was a blast and full of surprises. An hour of rapid-fire announcements, surprises, and trailers just kept on amusing the viewers. The event included the reveal of Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater, gameplay for Spider-Man 2, the release date for Alan Wake 2, and more.

Furthermore, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 was indeed the biggest highlight of the event. Not to mention, fans were dying to see the iconic Spider-Man Duo in action. Fortunately, Spidey fans finally got a glimpse of the gameplay for Insomniac’s next big entry – Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.

Sony surprised viewers as the jaw-dropping revelation of the iconic Spidey-Venom look took over the entire event. Although the Spidey-Venom reunion became the most talked about topic, Sony has still tons of surprises planned for the fandom.

Top 5 Interesting Predictions that may come true about Marvel Spider-Man 2

• The Iconic Return of Lizard 

Back in Spider-Man: Miles Morales, fans were hyped to see Cun Connors and Norman Osborn on screen. Within minutes, the speculation of Lizard and Green Goblin appearing in Marvel Spider-Man 2 took over the internet. While there’s no news about Green Goblin, it looks like Lizard will most likely make his appearance.

In the gameplay, players can spot many easter eggs about Doctor Sun Connor. The Lizard is an iconic Spider-Man villain and fans are familiar with his appearance in comics, TV Shows, and more. Without any appearance in both Marvel’s Spider-Man titles, Doctor Connor has surely gained huge attention.

He has received multiple shoutouts and appeared as an ally to Norman Osborn in a “Spider-Man: Miles Morales” post-credits scene. Since the two iconic villains have joined forces, fans are interested in seeing the impact on our Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man’s life.

• Black Cat Gain More Spotlight

Black Cat and her screen time with Peter Parker received immense support from the fandom. Furthermore, fans were requesting to see Spider-Man and Black Cat spend more time together in the sequel. Interestingly, there’s a possibility that we may see Black Cat receiving some spotlight in Spider-Man 2.

Black Cat is a perfect example of a partner in crime and has already reinforced her combat skills. Since Black Cat is allegedly trying to leave a life of crime behind, we might see her provide a helping hand to Peter and take down enemies just like Hammerhead.

• Wolverine Crossover

Marvel fans are already losing their cool with the Spider-Man 2 gameplay. While Spider-Man 2 is taking over the internet, fans are already expecting big things from the upcoming Wolverine title. Although Insomniac Games hasn’t spilled any tea about the storyline and gameplay, fans are expecting to see Wolverine debut sooner than his own title.

Since the company said both games take place in the same universe, it would be easy for the Spider-Man sequel to tease Wolverine. Moreover, fans would be more interested in getting their hands on the mutant’s claws and assisting Spider-Man.

• The Evil Spider-Man

During the showcase, players spotted Peter Parker in the Symbiote Suit. The Venom’s appearance in the latest gameplay has revealed that Spider-Duo will surely encounter the alien symbiote. Since the symbiote has a habit of getting attached to Spider-Man and corrupting the hero, fans are expecting the story to take an unexpected turn at the end.

Can Peter or Miles end up taking a sinister role? In addition to that, fans are also expecting a sorrowful ending where Spider-Man without the symbiotic suit be forced to fight one of their closest friends.

• Kraven will end up as the biggest threat

If you are familiar with Spider-Man comics, you might already be familiar with the iconic Marvel villain Kraven the Hunter. During the event, Kraven was spotted making plans to take on the iconic Spider-Man duo.

There’s a high possibility that this historic villain will successfully take down one of the Spider-Man in the story. Since both characters appear to be playable in combat, it wouldn’t be a surprise for Symbiotic Spider-Man to take a revenge path and hunt Kraven.
