Is photo mode included in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2‘s base game? If I don’t buy the Digital Deluxe Edition, will I be able to take cool photos? Yes, you can take photos in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 as the mode is available to all players, regardless of the version purchased.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 took the stage at Summer Games Fest. Insomniac Games, the developers of the game, brought out Bryan Intihar, Senior Creative Director, to share concept art, the box art, details about the story (Venom is not Eddie Brock), and a release date of October 20th. After the event, the PlayStation Blog posted an article formally announcing the release date alongside the Digital Deluxe Edition and the Collector’s Edition. Fans are talking about the 19-inch Collector’s Edition statue and the 10 Digital Deluxe Edition suits being locked behind the paywall. However, one of the sleeper talking points after these announcements is the photo mode.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 – The Significance of Photo Mode
Photo mode has been a huge component in recent PlayStation titles such as The Last of Us Part II and Ghost of Tsushima. Marvel’s Spider-Man and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales both take advantage of photo mode. Insomniac Games’ Twitter account shares photos fans do on occasion. This confusion on photo mode being locked behind the higher priced editions started on Twitter shortly after the PlayStation Blog post released. Community Director, James Stevenson, took to Twitter to clarify the photo mode situation.
Photo Mode is available for all copies.
