Players who have completed the main story will purportedly be able to start a new game with enhanced skills and upgrades with the New Game+ mode. It is expected that New Game+ will also offer increased difficulty, new trophies and new challenges for veteran players to encourage them to play the game once again.
Aside from that, the Audio Description feature should provide narration and commentary for visually impaired players. It should ideally describe the game’s environments, characters, actions, and events in detail, allowing players to experience the game through sound.
Released almost two months ago, Spider-Man 2 has emerged as one of this year’s most popular games, achieving over five million copies sold just 11 days after its release, despite its exclusivity to the PS5 console, as disclosed by Insomniac.
