BrutalGamer Bringing you Brutally Honest feedback from today's entertainment industry.
We’re not sure how you might’ve missed it, but if you did, here’s the Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 trailer from Comic Con. Let the Venom speculation begin.
We’re going to heal the world
As mentioned, the latest trailer for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 debuted at SDCC this past week. The new look was surprisingly deep, and introduced a number of new additions to the Sony/Marvel-gameverse. Those include a reawakened Harry Osborn, who’s got some big ambitions, another look at a bear-skin clad Kraven, and the surprise return of Mister Negative. It looks like there’s going to be quite a sub-plot there specifically, with Miles out for revenge against Li.
But what you’re probably wondering, above any and all of that, is just what the story is with Venom. We haven’t heard any mention of Eddie Brock in any of this, and he hasn’t been set up in any way as a character (that we know of). Also, despite it certainly seeming to be Harry in the slime-suit, there’s been no mention of that either, although the trailer does lay out a pretty clear hint. Almost too clear…
The only thing we really do know is that this isn’t the Lethal Protector. The Tony Todd-voiced Venom very much seems to be a very bad guy in Insomniac’s superhero universe.
We’re going to heal the world. The Spider-Men, Peter Parker and Miles Morales, enter new chapters in their lives as they balance their responsibilities as protectors of Marvel’s New York. As Harry Osborn, Peter’s best friend, returns into his life, and Miles looks to build his future beyond high school, the relationship between our heroes is tested and strained as the Symbiote appears to threaten them, the city, and the ones they love.

So… who do you think Venom is? Harry? Eddie? …Peter? Or do you think he’s someone else entirely, and Insomniac is giving fans a massive swerve?
It isn’t too long before we find out for sure, since Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 lands exclusively on the PS5 this October the 20th.
