Highlights

In the game Spider-Man 2, a player discovered the location of a hidden wind tunnel near a specific bridge.

There has been a strong demand from fans to have more gameplay opportunities as Venom in Spider-Man 2, and the development team is open to the idea of creating a spin-off centered around Venom, which will depend on how fans respond.

A fan of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has discovered a hidden wind tunnel in the game that is easily overlooked. This forms part of the game's new traversal system, enabling players to gain speed by passing through specific blue rings while using their Web Wings. The traversal mechanics in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 are faster and more seamless compared to previous iterations, contributing significantly to the game's critical and commercial success. In addition, players were thrilled when Insomniac, the developer, introduced the Web Wings feature in response to community feedback, showing their dedication to improving the game. With these wings, players can now glide even faster by navigating through wind currents. While numerous currents are scattered throughout the city, one player stumbled upon a seemingly concealed wind tunnel that provides a substantial boost in speed.

A video was shared by user rradquis34 on the SpidermanPS4 subreddit, showing them exploring the open world of Spider-Man 2. While swinging under a subway bridge, they stumbled upon a staircase that turned out to be a wind tunnel with blue rings, granting them a speed boost. This unexpected discovery delighted the community, and it sparked curiosity about how many more hidden tunnels might be in Spider-Man 2's map.

Even though players are still uncovering secrets in the game, Insomniac, the developer, is already focused on their next major release. One significant revelation recently came from Spider-Man 2's director, Bryan Intihar, confirming that the upcoming Wolverine game and Spider-Man 2 are set in the same universe. Insomniac announced Wolverine in September 2021, but there have been no substantial updates since. Additionally, players can equip a Wolverine suit in the game, hinting at a potential confrontation between Spider-Man and Logan in the future, which could have a significant impact on Marvel's Spider-Man 3.

Aside from this, there has been a desire among several fans for increased playtime as Venom in Spider-Man 2. Although the game's storyline limits such freedom, a player has seemingly discovered a glitch that allows them to explore the open world as Venom. Nevertheless, players still yearn for the opportunity to fully embody Venom, and this aspiration may actually come to fruition. The senior narrative director of Spider-Man 2 has mentioned that the team is open to the possibility of a Venom spin-off, contingent upon the reactions of the fans.
