Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions is generally considered to be one of the better games to feature Spider-Man. The premise for the game involved multiple versions of Spider-Man from different dimensions trying to keep an amulet out of villainous hands. The game itself was said to be the primary inspiration for Dan Slott’s Spider-Man: Spider-Verse event comic which, in turn, served as the key inspiration for the 2018 film, Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse. To this day, the game still has its fans who want to see elements of it make a comeback.

The various version of the web slinger in Shattered Dimensions each had their own unique Spider-Man abilities based on their respective character. These included several enormous web attacks from the normal version of Spider-Man and symbiote based abilities from another version who still has the Black Suit. In a recent post, Reddit user MattMysterious9 expressed a desire to see some of these more over the top abilities in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. The comments, for the most part, seemed to agree with the original poster.
When Marvel’s Spider-Man originally hit selves in 2018, it quickly became a big hit. As of this writing, the game has sold over 33 million copies worldwide and has since been released on PlayStation 5 and PC. A followup, Spider-Man: Miles Morales was released in 2020, before a full sequel to both games called Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 was revealed in late 2021. That game will feature Venom and with the franchise’s high sales it may be able to take a few more risks with the characters’ abilities.
Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions would eventually get a direct sequel titled Spider-Man: Edge of Time, though it wasn’t as well received as its predecessor. In addition to Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, the game’s fingerprints can be seen on Spider-Man: No Way Home. Some in fact call Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions a game players should try if they enjoyed No Way Home. While it is unlikely that players will see a followup to the game anytime soon, hopefully Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 will take a few notes from the game’s abilities.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is scheduled to release in 2023 on PS5.
