In addition to announcing the release date for Spider-Man, Game Informer has posted a new, rapid fire interview with the game's creative director, Bryan Intihar.
It's a pretty silly interview and well worth a watch, but there are some interesting snippets of information sprinkled throughout. Perhaps most notable is that microtransactions will not be present in the game, which should be a relief to any fans.
Here's a summary of the interview's juiciest new details:
- A photo mode will be included
- There are lots of collectibles
- Elements of Spider-Man's moveset are customisable
- There's a crafting system, which we believe is related to Spidey's suit
- Spider-Man levels up in this game
- The game is locked at 30 frames per second, and will of course feature PS4 Pro support
- The subway acts as the fast travel system
- The open world is several times larger than Insomniac's Xbox exclusive Sunset Overdrive
- You won't be rescuing balloons or delivering pizzas, and Bruce Campbell sadly doesn't cameo this time
- You'll play as Mary Jane in this game
- You can't hurt civilians, but you can interact with them in fun ways, such as taking selfies or giving them high fives

Im already sold on the game! Any more & I’ll start buying my neighbours copies!
All sounds great, should be another solid exclusive for the ps4!
Okay Horizon, your record of over 450 screenshots on my hardrive is about to be challenged.
30fps is no surprise as that's been Insomniac's M.O. for sometime now.
"Perhaps most notable is that microtransactions will not be present in the game"
PRAISE JEBUS!
Bigger than SO is pretty big, that was one of the best games I've ever played - probably partly b/c I went in with zero expectations. If this game is anything like that it should be awesome. I'm afraid it won't be, but I'm hoping.
I normally don't care too much for photo modes but this game might make me go crazy for one.
Wish I could hurt civilians though.
It was all sounding so good, right up until that bullet point stating the lack of balloons, pizza deliveries and Bruce Campbell. I wonder what side quests are like in this game, hopefully there's a large variety of them.
@b1ackjack_ps They meant the Subway food outlets. Spidey can get a footlong B.M.T with salad and chilli sauce and it'll give him super spider energy. Probably.
@Fight_Teza_Fight Buy me a collector's edition, please.
@ApostateMage Eat fresh!
No Bruce Campbell, no buy. (Not really)
Why the need to say theres no mircotransactions? I wouldnt have expected any in this game?
Kinda hope that if you can play as MJ then you can play as the Exiles version (who was the webhead in her universe.) ....won't happen but I can dream until Sept.
No Bruce Campbell, no sale. Better luck next time, Sony.
Idk what my GOTY will be. God of War, Spider-Man or KH3. 😩
Game UK. Have the collectors edition with all the goodies on pre-order if anyone's interested.
@LordBeerus You can decide once you've played them.
Photo Mode makes it worth the purchase
Wow I can't pay 99 cents for ability points talk about bad service.
