The problem is that Spider-Man is obviously being shoe-horned into a game he doesn’t belong in.

He swings from an invisible barrier in the sky like a PS2 game - which he bumps into if he swings too high - and he can’t achieve any kind of real speed thanks to the limitation of the maps. What we’ve seen from Spider-Man so far looks abysmal. While I don’t think Spidey’s a total lost cause - and the cosmetics are certainly enticing - the Spider-Man update is an indictment of Sony and the exclusive-content shenanigans it’s been pulling for years. It’s distressing to see how poorly he’s being handled here, and it pains me to think about how different things could have been. I’d rather have nothing than the half-baked Spider-Man coming at the end of the month, which is lucky because that’s exactly what PC players are getting. Now that I’ve seen everything included in the update, I can’t help but feel like it's the PlayStation players who are getting the raw deal. Ever since Spidey was announced as a PlayStation exclusive, I, a PC player, have been moaning about missing out on one of my favorite characters.

Spider-Man is coming to Marvel’s Avengers soon, and he’s not looking good.
