It's been a while since Marvel fans got to play with a good Spider-Man game, and the PS4 exclusive game centered on everybody's favorite webslinger has become one of the most anticipated games of 2017. A leak has supposedly come out saying that the main villain of the game will be Norman Osborn a.k.a. The Green Goblin, and it could have something to do with him not just ruining Spider-Man's life, but also Peter Parker's personal life as well.
According to The Bitbag, the rumor came up after a summary of the game came out on IMDb. The content has since been removed, but it did say that The Green Goblin was planning a "sinister" plan that would endanger the life of Peter Parker's family. Note that the word "sinister" might hint at the possible involvement of super-villain group The Sinister Six, and they include the likes of Dr. Octopus, Chameleon, Electro, Mysterio, Rhino and Sandman.
The marketing team of Insomniac Games has debunked the summary, but then again, they outright didn't say that it was wrong. They did post on Twitter that," IMDB is like Wikipedia, anyone can add anything to it. You'll hear the real deal from us first."
As for that release date, Sony has said that it will be in the "near-future," so expect Spider-Man to be playable within the year - then again it's possible that the near-future could also mean an early 2018 release. Fans will just have to wait and see what happens.
So far, the best-rated Spider-Man game has been for the video game adaptation of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2, and that game came out way back in 2004 for the PS2. It's been more than 10 years, and fans are still waiting for an updated and more modern version of Spider-Man games that will blow their socks off.
No release date has been announced for the PS4 exclusive Spider-Man game, but fans expect it to come out this year or early 2018.
