Great Power. Great Responsibility. All That Jazz.
We’re getting close to the launch of Sony’s PlayStation 5, which coincidentally means we’re also getting close to not only Spider-Man: Miles Morales but Marvel’s Spider-Man: Remastered to boot. We’ve already been shown much of what the latest hardware from the Japanese conglomerate can do. However, we’ve yet to see how it’s going to improve upon Insomniac Games’ first take on everybody’s favorite webhead.
But recent tweets from the official Insomniac Twitter account have shed light on a few of the juicy upgrades we can expect to find upon release. Improved character models utilizing ray-traced reflections, better lighting, and nearly-instant loading headline an impressive list of new features.
“Many art assets have been updated to take advantage of the PS5 console’s horsepower. Better-looking characters (with) improved skin, eyes, hair, and facial animation Ray-traced reflections and ambient shadows, improved lighting, more pedestrians and vehicles stretching into (the) distance. Optional performance mode for a targeted 60fps frame rate. Near-instant loading, 3D audio, DualSense controller’s haptic feedback. Three suits, new photo mode features, and even new trophies.”
It was also confirmed that Marvel’s Spider-Man: Remastered will act as a standalone purchase. Those that have already paid for the original PlayStation 4 version will need to ante up again if they want to play the new edition.
What are your thoughts on the new features coming to Marvel’s Spider-Man: Remastered? Is Sony dropping the ball by not offering it as a free upgrade? Sound off in the comment section below.
