Insomniac's Recent Job Posting Hints at Early Development of Marvel's Spider-Man 3
A newly surfaced job listing at Insomniac Games suggests that Marvel's Spider-Man 3 may be in its early development phase. This follows the immense critical and commercial success of Insomniac's previous Spider-Man titles, and the numerous plot threads left open in 2023's Spider-Man 2. While Insomniac has confirmed Spider-Man 3's existence, details remain scarce.
Speculation surrounding Marvel's Spider-Man 3 intensified after its inclusion in a leaked Insomniac game list following the PS5 release of Spider-Man 2. Leaks also suggest the introduction of new characters to the Insomniac universe within this installment. However, the game's release is still likely years away.
A job posting for a Senior UX Researcher at Insomniac specifically mentions leading research for a AAA title in early production, requiring a three-month stint at the Burbank UX Lab.
Spider-Man 3: The Most Likely Candidate
Considering previous leaks, Marvel's Spider-Man 3 appears the most probable candidate for this project. Marvel's Wolverine, another Insomniac title, is reportedly in advanced development, and rumors of a Venom-centric Spider-Man 2 spin-off slated for 2024 suggest it's unlikely to be in early production.
This leaves either Spider-Man 3 or a potential new Ratchet and Clank game (rumored for 2029) as possibilities. Given Insomniac's current focus on its expanding Marvel universe, Spider-Man 3 is the more likely scenario.
Regardless of the specific title, the job posting confirms Insomniac's active development of a new game, exciting news for PlayStation enthusiasts.
