Unveiling the Stunning Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Edition Xbox Series X with Spectacular Design

Highlights

A fan created a mockup of an Xbox Series X console themed around Marvel's Spider-Man 2, showing what it could have looked like if the game wasn't a PlayStation 5 exclusive.

Fans gave positive feedback to the design, despite being limited to PlayStation, with some playfully questioning the game's compatibility with Microsoft's hardware. Insomniac Games, the creators of Spider-Man 2, will shift their attention to Marvel's Wolverine, an exclusive title for PlayStation 5 aimed at a more mature audience.

A fan has presented a concept for an Xbox Series X console designed with a theme based on Marvel's Spider-Man 2, imagining how it would look if the game were not exclusive to PlayStation 5. Marvel's Spider-Man 2, developed by Insomniac Games, a subsidiary of Sony, has generated a great deal of anticipation among PlayStation users for its release in 2023, with players eager to swing through the streets of New York City during its opening weekend.

Leading up to the game's launch, Spider-Man 2 has already received considerable acclaim from critics and is currently one of the highest-rated games of the year. However, due to its exclusivity to PlayStation 5, a significant number of gamers are unable to experience the latest adventures of Peter Parker and Miles Morales.

Instead, fans like Redditor chachinito are taking it upon themselves to share a glimpse of what could have been. In a post on the r/PlayStation subreddit, this user has shared a photo featuring an Xbox Series X console adorned with a Spider-Man 2 decal. This design draws inspiration from the PlayStation 5 Limited Edition console, showcasing a white Spider-Man logo gradually being engulfed by Venom's tendrils. To complete the aesthetic, the original poster displays the console alongside an Xbox Series X controller featuring red banding around its analog sticks.

While Sony retains the exclusive rights to the game, the responses to this post have generally been positive, with some commending how well the design translates to the Xbox Series X. Others have taken a playful approach, humorously inquiring about the game's performance on Microsoft's hardware.

Insomniac's Spider-Man 2 will not be available for Xbox consoles, but there is still good news for Xbox players. The exclusive Starfield from Bethesda, which was released simultaneously on Game Pass, was the top-selling video game in the US for September. Fans all over the world are currently enthralled by this latest RPG.

Now that Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is in the hands of gamers, Insomniac Games will shift focus to Marvel's Wolverine. This game was announced in 2021 and was being developed alongside Spider-Man 2. With the completion of Spider-Man 2, more development resources can now be dedicated to Logan's adventure. Wolverine does not have a firm release date yet, but it will be a more mature experience compared to the lightheartedness of the Spider-Man games.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is available for PS5.
