Internet users are continuing to sift through leaked Insomniac Games files following the recent hack and have now seemingly found evidence of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 PS5 multiplayer. Users claim to have found multiplayer code within files that are about a month old, leading to speculations that Insomniac will release a multiplayer add-on.
How convincing is the Spider-Man 2 multiplayer leak?
Speculations of Spider-Man 2 having some sort of a co-op mode have been swirling since the game was announced, and two main protagonists were confirmed. However, Insomniac continued to shoot rumors down and stressed that Spider-Man 2 is a single-player experience. At one point, Miles Morales voice actor Nadji Jeter mentioned co-op in an interview, but Insomniac debunked that statement.
According to Reddit user No_Kaleidoscope_9471, the files they found mention air vehicles and a progression system. They also shared screenshots of code that mentions multiplayer elements like a dedicated game server.
However, one Redditor is of the view that game engines often have client-server communication implementation by default, and the mere mention of it in code doesn’t necessarily imply that a game is ready for multiplayer.
Whether Spider-Man 2 will get multiplayer and co-op missions or not is anybody’s guess right now.
