Insomniac Games has revealed a Spider-Man 2-themed PS5 console that's coming in September, with pre-orders for it starting next week on July 28.
Spider-Man 2 is currently being shown off as part of a panel at San Diego Comic-Con, where several key actors involved in the game and some developers at Insomniac Games are revealing new details about what to expect from the sequel. This included a brand-new story trailer and the confirmation of some specific details about the game, such as how long it's been since Miles Morales and the fact that Mr Negative is making a return.
Outside of the new trailer and story details, Insomniac Games also took the time to show off some merchandise related to the game, including showing the collector's edition off in-person for the first time. That wasn't all, though, as one of the final surprises of the night was the reveal of an exclusive Spider-Man 2 PS5 bundle that features a controller and console themed around the game.
The console was first shown off by Insomniac Games' Bryan Intihar before the PlayStation Blog gave us a full look at what's included. The bundle, which is called the "Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Limited Edition Bundle" features a custom PS5 console case which showcases the symbiote closing in on a big white spider emblem. The bundle also features a matching DualSense with the same design and a voucher for a digital copy of the game. A bit of a shame that there's no disk, but that's standard practice for console bundles nowadays.
Thankfully, if you're not wanting to just buy a whole new PS5 for the unique design, Insomniac Games has confirmed that the cover featured on the bundled PS5 will be released separately, both for the normal PS5 and the Digital Edition. Pre-orders for all of the Spider-Man 2-themed merchandise will be going live on PlayStation Direct from July 28, with all the products currently listed for release on September 1, a month before the game's launch.
