How old is Peter Parker in Spider-Man 2?

Insomniac Games has produced some of the best Spiderman games in the industry, and Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is no different. The title features tons of new content, including new missions, side activities, and mechanics. It takes you back to New York City, after the events of Marvel's Spider-Man and Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales. Considering it has been some time since the events of the previous games, many players are curious about Peter Parker's age in Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

The latest title in the series lets you use not just one, but two heroes to save the day. The ability to switch between two protagonists — Peter Parker and Miles Morales — is a unique feature of the series' third installation. The two characters each have had their own games in the past, and their collaboration is a thing fans are happy about.

Meanwhile, the other hero of New York is a lot younger than Peter Parker. At 17 years old, Miles Morales finds himself juggling academics and web-slinging through the city's buildings. Throughout the game, he can be seen studying at Brooklyn Visions Academy while applying for college.

The first title in the series, Marvel's Spiderman, was released in 2018. This was followed by Miles' own spin-off in 2020 in a game called Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales. It was reported that the latest installment was set a year after the spin-off.

Both the heroes of New York City are relatively young and have a lot of things on their hands. Fans now have access to various skills and abilities, thanks to the new switch feature.
