When can you start playing Marvel's Spider-Man 2?

The official release date for Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is Friday, October 20, 2023. This is a perfect time to drop the game as it allows fervent fans and avid gamers to dive into it over the weekend. Given that the main story is around 15 hours long, they will have more than enough time to experience the central plotline and make some decent headway toward the coveted Platinum.

The tricky part is the launch time. While we have seen quite a few developers revealing that information days before launch on their social media accounts, Insomniac Games is still mum on the matter. Although we cannot say for sure whether the developers will make an official confirmation, we still have enough information to make an educated guess.

The game will launch at 12 am local time for players around the world. This has been the case for other console releases, and the title's PS store page also shows a counter indicating the same. Furthermore, a Redditor shared a conversation with a PlayStation support member, who replied with similar information.
