Unveiling the Epical Journey of The Spider-Man Game Universe: A Complete Timeline Update!

Highlights

A fan has created a comprehensive timeline of all the games and comics in the Marvel's Spider-Man universe, including tie-in comics and novels.

The timeline assists players in determining the sequence of events in the media and acts as a valuable resource for getting up to speed on the entire story prior to the launch of Spider-Man 2.

Spider-Man 2 will further explore the narrative of Peter and Miles, continuing certain storylines from the previous games and possibly referencing the related comics.

An updated timeline created by a fan presents a comprehensive and chronological order of all the games and comics in the Marvel's Spider-Man universe, leading up to the release of Spider-Man 2. In 2018, Insomniac, the renowned developer behind Ratchet and Clank, introduced their unique take on the Marvel Comics mythology with Marvel's Spider-Man. The game narrated the tale of an experienced Peter Parker, confronting new renditions of his deadliest adversaries while grappling with the physical and emotional toll of his ceaseless mission to safeguard New York City.

Marvel's Spider-Man garnered immense acclaim and broke sales records, thanks to its open-world gameplay and intelligent writing. This success led to the creation of a whole series. Furthermore, Spider-Man: Miles Morales, released in 2020, continued the narrative of the initial game, centering on the eponymous teenager from Brooklyn as he blossoms into a capable superhero in his own right. However, Insomniac's expanding Marvel gaming universe does not conclude here. In typical Marvel fashion, there have been multiple tie-in comics that bridge the gaps between the games, and the Peter Parker from Earth-1048 even played a role in the 2018 Spider-Geddon crossover event.

CanadianWaffleHouse has compiled a comprehensive timeline of the Marvel's Spider-Man continuity, encompassing various games, tie-in comics, and other media. This timeline includes the prequel novel Hostile Takeover, the Velocity series featuring Peter's Velocity Suit from the first game, and even the recent prequel comic for Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

However, there are a few exclusions in CanadianWaffleHouse's Spider-Man game universe timeline. They explain in the post that the comics Marvel's Spider-Man: City At War and Black Cat Strikes are simply retellings of the first game and its City That Never Sleeps DLC. Additionally, Insomniac Peter Parker's cameo in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse was just a cameo, nothing more.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2, set to be released exclusively for PlayStation 5 in October, continues the captivating storyline of Peter and Miles. Building on the plot threads introduced in the first two Insomniac Spider-Man games, such as the emergence of Venom in the Insomniac universe, Spider-Man 2 may also incorporate nods to the Marvel's Spider-Man comics. In order to prepare for the upcoming exhilarating chapter this autumn, players can rely on CanadianWaffleHouse's timeline as a valuable resource to catch up on the complete story of Marvel's Spider-Man. Look forward to the highly anticipated launch of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on October 20 for PlayStation 5.
