Though Spider-Man: Miles Morales is going to be a launch title for the PlayStation 5, it’s also going to release alongside a remaster of the PS4’s Spider-Man. We just got a big update from Insomniac Games about the new edition, and it’s been revealed that the studio has decided to change the face of Peter Parker.
Check this out:
While the internet is currently griping that Sony made the change to make sure the character looked like Tom Holland, the studio has explained that this was done so that Peter would more resemble Spider-Man actor Yuri Lowenthal. Community director James Stevenson writes:
If anything, fans of the first game are not having it and are demanding that Insomniac #BringBackBubniak. Personally, the original face never really sat well with me; I mean, it didn’t even really look like Bubniak. I guess I can understand the frustration of some fans, because to them the PS4 Spider-Man had become the definitive version. Hopefully Insomniac looks at this backlash and makes the original face an unlockable skin.
As an extra, we also have some footage of the game running on 60fps:
And it’s also been revealed that the suit from The Amazing Spider-Man will also be available in the game:
While some may not be happy about the changes, Spider-Man Remastered is still set to come out with Spider-Man: Miles Morales this coming Nov. 12 on the PS5. You may find more games in our updated list of Upcoming PS5 Games.
