PlayStation 5 is fast, you already know it – everyone already knows it. But let’s take one more moment to acknowledge the massive quality of life improvements that Sony’s next-gen console is about to bring. Are you ready? This time, with the embargo lifted and the Japanese giant not about to hit us with a DMCA takedown, this is fast travel in Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
Blink and you’ll miss it:
Insomniac Games’ gameplay programmer Max Golden explained on Twitter that he had to “speed up the black screens” in the title’s code in order to account for the lightning fast loading speeds. It genuinely is impressive stuff, and despite us having access to the PS5 for well over a week, it’s something we’re honestly still getting used to.

Can't spend too long on the tube during a pandemic!
@ralphdibny That's a very good point!
Well guess we ain't talking to the city locals anymore discussing the intricacies of life and responsibility with a Spider-Man cosplayer while on the subway
I actually like the cutscenes of Spider-Man in the subway it was funny and only lasted like 5 seconds or maybe a little longer but I don’t remember being too long to become a problem, now a real improvement would be the loading screens of Monster Hunter World Iceborne specially going to the grinding land
That’s what it feels like going one stop on the tube in Glasgow, despite it being largely unchanged since the 19th century. You sit down and then you’re already at the next stop.
I love the fact that not only do you get back into the game so quickly, there doesn't appear to be any of the stutter and texture loading that you'd normally expect.
Very promising.
@GKO900 I think Insomniac confirmed that you can turn those on if you want.
@GKO900 you can turn them on if you like
Man I can't wait to play this. Dunno if I'll be able to hold off until tomorrow to play on the 5, that countdown timer is very enticing!
@redd214 ps4/5 the game is great tbh and you won't be disappointed for the ps4 version that is for sure.
Edit: I assume you'll be playing the ps4 version on the 5
I love that people are getting spoiled by the PS4 ports, so when the games made from the ground-up for PS5 are released, everyone will say, "Yo, WTF happened to the short load times and 60 FPS at 4k??? We want that!!!"
@Cypher_Unknown indeed!
@vapidwolf @GamingFan4Lyf That’s great options like that are always welcome
You guys should see xbox fast travel on witcher 3
