Big Spider-Man 2 PS5 Patch Planned, But Not Until 2024

Has anyone try to replay missions in spiderman remastered in the menu and nothing shows up? It just says missions currently unavailable

Can't rush high quality, Insomniac always knows this. You can argue all you want about New Game + should have been there day one but they we're focused on getting the main campaign as polished as possible first, nothing wrong with that

And once again my patience pays off.👍

Frustrating given the lack of replay ability, but if this means a better new game plus better late than rushed. Game length aside, it wasn’t lacking in polish which honestly is more important.

I'm totally fine with this delay. It'll let me get some other games polished off before I dive in again!

Annoyed we have to wait longer but with everything happening right now with them i get it and it is Dec so they deserve a break. Hopefully the new update comes with a bunch of new suits and some suits from the first game that didn't make it into SM2 like Big Time and Future Foundation.

As much as I love this game, it's pretty obvious they should've delayed this to 2024. It's MISSING FEATURES from the first two games, like WHY???

Well that's less then 3 weeks away!!

Add a few NG+ trophies and I'm in.

Hope we also get the character bios back in.

I played it and probably won't go back now with a stacked early 2024.

@Beerheadgamer82 Sony devs do this all the time, it's clearly done that way to gain players back in their "massive updates." That's why they dont do anything with it and why devs such as Capcom and Fromsoft can do it without an issue at launch.

wheres the option to skip MJ missions and mundane human missions

Whoa, where was this quality control when they made MJ's face?

@Nepp67 some will include it at launch, many others don't either, it's not just PS 1st party that dont include it at launch. Matters far more to me getting the main campaign buttery smooth as possible and as bug free as possible on launch, and if that means waiting a little for New Game + then so be it

@Beerheadgamer82 If developers like Capcom and Fromsoft can do it and have a buttery smooth and bug free experience then so can Insomniac

@Nepp67 why do some games release without New Game + and some do

Here's something I quickly found online, which I've read similarly before a while back

One of the main reasons and perhaps most obvious answers, is the crucial, yet vital, development time studios save by not having to include NG+ at launch, hitting dates to coincide with marketing and avoiding negative crunch press is incredibly important when releasing a game. While it may seem like a simple feature, NG+ is often much more complicated to integrate into a games infrastructure than one may think. Finding and avoiding exploits with a fully upgraded character before allowing them to revisit early game segments with a NG+ run is easier said than done. By not including it at launch developers can put their valuable time and resources towards bugs and polishing that is bound to have a much higher impact on a games review score than the inclusion of NG+ would have

@Beerheadgamer82 Once again this is something Capcom, Fromsoft, and Square Enix manage to do with all of the work they need to do and include it at launch. Sony devs would certainly have a much easier time compared to them with the experience that they have.

@Nepp67 clearly I understand what you saying. I'm just giving an example of why a NG+ might not be included at launch in comment 18. It might well be the case that NG+ could have released with Spiderman 2 on launch but that original Spiderman 2 launch could have been delayed if the NG+ were to be included?. The main campaign for nearly every development team, is the priority over everything else, surely
