Has Insomniac Been Hiding the Real Villain for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2?

So far, almost everyone is convinced that Venom is the main antagonist in Spider-Man 2. With the game coming closer to release, it looks obvious that Venom will take the role of the main supervillain. But if players look closely at the small details added to the original Marvel’s Spider-Man, it might change their minds.

In the first Spider-Man game, there is a small side mission, that hints towards the possibility of another supervillain that has been hinted, but not yet exposed. The infamous villain from the original movie might make a comeback.

What are the possibilities of Green Goblin being the main antagonist?

In the original Spider-Man game, players can play as two characters overall. Peter Parker as himself and Spider-man and players will also get to control Mary Jane for a few missions. During one of these missions, Mary Jane breaks into Oscorp labs and that’s where there are hints to the possible villain for the game.

While scavenging for any information on the Devil’s Breath. During her investigation, she stumbles upon a blueprint for the mask of the Green Goblin. As it is commonly known, Norman Osborn is a Green Goblin. This might mean that Marvel’s Spider-Man games can expect to have Goblin as a villain in the upcoming game or future games. As Mary was scavenging the lab, she also noticed some hand grenades that looked like the signature weapon of Green Goblin.

So far, this is just a speculation that is emerging among fans. Although Norman Osborn plays a huge role in the upcoming game, it is unlikely that we see Green Goblin making an appearance in Spider-Man 2. While there is speculation that Harry, his son, will assume the role of Venom, it is predictable that, if defeated by Spider-Man, Venom’s father might assume the role of avenging his son.

All the villains we can expect to see in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

In Spider-Man 2, fans can expect Peter and Miles to face off a slew of different villains. While players will need to wait for the game to see more antagonists in the game, there are some that have been confirmed in the trailer and cut scene previews. The first and most notable one has to be Venom. Venom, powered by an alien symbiote, aims to assert the supremacy of the symbiote and sees Spider-Man as an obstacle. Venom is expected to play a significant and crucial villainous role in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.

Next in line is Kraven the Hunter. Kraven is a Russian aristocrat and big-game hunter, who seeks challenging prey, and Spider-Man fits the bill. His straightforward agenda is to prove his hunting prowess by taking down Spider-Man.

Dr. Curt Connors, also known as the Lizard, will face off against Spider-Man. His questionable methods draw Spider-Man into the conflict. The superhero will stop him in his plans to create a better and more enhanced species. There are also chances of seeing Wilson Fisk, also known as Kingpin. He may make an appearance after being released from prison. As a crime lord with extensive influence in New York, he could pose a significant threat to Spider-Man.

Harry, Peter’s best friend, has been cured thanks to his father’s work. And is speculated to be Venom in the upcoming game. However, there are hints that he might not be entirely balanced mentally, and the Green Goblin arc might be explored in future installments. This is considering that he isn’t Venom in this title.

While Spider-Man has many enemies, it is not very likely that Green Goblin will be a villain in this game. The focus is completely on Venom, and maybe, in the next game, Green Globin will take the stage. With that said, when are you picking up your copy of Spider-Man 2?
