Marvel's Spider-Man 2 was released for PC on January 30, 2025, with much fanfare. Spider-Man fans on PC have anticipated this launch for a while, and they can finally get their hands on the game. While the system requirements of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 are relatively forgiving at lower settings, the same cannot be said for higher graphical settings, especially with ray tracing involved.

Sony mentions Nvidia RTX 4090 as the minimum requirement to play the game at Ultimate Ray Tracing settings, but more power is required to maintain a constant 60+ FPS. The newly launched RTX 5090 can deliver that.

In this article, we have provided the best graphics settings for running Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on the RTX 5090.

Note: This article is subjective and solely reflects the writer's opinions. The settings provided below are based on the game's Ultimate Ray Tracing specs and shouldn't be used for resolutions higher than 3840 x 2160.
