Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Update Squashes Bugs on PC

by

For those who’ve already played Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 on PS5, it’s a fresh adventure if you’re now diving into it on PC. The game featuring Peter Parker and Miles Morales became available on Steam and Epic Games Store earlier this year and has received updates since its debut to enhance the gaming experience. Today, Insomniac Games and Nixxes Software released Patch 7, focusing on optimizing the web-swinging action for PC players eager to confront Kraven and Venom, two formidable foes.

As a dedicated gamer diving into Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 today, I found the update to be somewhat understated yet packed with some valuable bug fixes that have been troubling the PC version. Among the notable improvements are solutions to several issues related to ray-traced interiors, and a resolution for the shadow flickering issue when HBAO+ or XeGTAO was activated. Most of the adjustments seem to focus on visuals and stability, with a few tailored toward gameplay as well. To top it off, Steam players can now access fresh Community Items such as Badges, Trading Cards, Backgrounds, and Emotes!
