Marvel\'s Spider-Man 3 Could be \'in Early Production\' at Insomniac

Insomniac's Recent Job Posting Hints at Early Development of Marvel's Spider-Man 3

A newly surfaced job listing at Insomniac Games suggests the early stages of production for Marvel's Spider-Man 3. This follows the immense success of previous Spider-Man titles and leaves numerous plot points from 2023's Spider-Man 2 ripe for exploration in a sequel. While Insomniac has confirmed Spider-Man 3's development, details remain scarce.

Speculation surrounding Spider-Man 3 intensified after its inclusion in a leaked Insomniac game list following Spider-Man 2's PS5 release. Further leaks suggest the introduction of new characters to the Insomniac universe, although a release date is likely years away.

A recent job posting for a Senior UX Researcher at Insomniac provides a significant clue. The listing specifies the researcher's role in leading research for a AAA title in early production, requiring a three-month stint at Insomniac's Burbank UX Lab.

Spider-Man 3: The Most Likely Candidate

Considering previous leaks, Marvel's Spider-Man 3 appears the most probable candidate. Marvel's Wolverine, another Insomniac project, is reportedly well underway, despite minor setbacks. Rumors of a Venom-centric Spider-Man 2 spin-off, potentially releasing this year, further suggest this is unlikely to be the game in early development.

This leaves either Spider-Man 3 or a new Ratchet and Clank title (rumored for 2029) as possibilities. Given Insomniac's current focus on expanding its Marvel universe, Spider-Man 3 remains the strongest contender. While purely speculative, the confirmation of a new Insomniac game in early production is exciting news for PlayStation enthusiasts.
