PlayStation continues in its desire to carry on PC the majority of its catalog of home games. The most recent to receive a PC Facelift is Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered. Released at the start on PS4 in 2018, Marvel’s Spider-Man had surprised by its quality, its history and its gameplay. While a remastered version has already been published on PS5 now arrives at the PC version and it is Costaude.

Just a word on the concept of Marvel’s Spider-Man game. This is an action game with the 3rd person with RPG elements. You play Peter Parker Aka Spider-Man who walks New York to counter crime. While the game presents a scripted story, you have to solve several secondary quests through the city made up of fights, puzzles and items to find. All this in order to increase the capacities of your character. It is about thirty hours in addition to downloadable addition.

Naturally, it is the same game of 2018 but with a lot of work to make the game up to date with the powerful machines that propel the PC games now. At the time, he had received an average score of 8.7 out of 10 from around a hundred criticism from game sites like ours. What is certain is that it is easy to see how much the graphics for this PC version have been worked, never New York has been so beautiful in a game. But it goes further as polished images since we see Games of shadows and breathtaking light. As is often the case with a remastered edition, the designers added the full version of The City That Never Sleeps. You will be able to access the three chapters of the new scenario with additional challenges, allies and enemies from the universe of Spider-Man and additional costumes to be released. Much content so that you had to buy in the original version.

Graphics

I was talking to you about graphics, you still have to admit that the game is built to take advantage of a war machine with a good processor, a lot of RAM and above all a very up-to-date video card. Otherwise, stay with the PS4 or PS5 version of the game. On my side, I have a PC with 32 GB of RAM, a faster M.2 card than a hard drive, an Intel Core i7 processor and a card NVIDIA RTX 3060 graphics. Even with this config, I did not ride the game completely to its full measure. Imagine! Naturally, a graphics card capable of making Ray-Tracing is a must but a good instructor too since the game allows a rendering of the formats 16: 9, 16:10, 21: 9, 32: 9 and 48: 9. The NVIDIA DLSS standard and the NVIDIA DLAA standard which improves performance is also supported.

A quick word on controls.

I must admit I am first a console player which necessarily involves a controller. So I had a certain apprehension against Marvel’s Spider-Man. The game is ultimately also optimized mouse as a handle. I tried it with Dualshock and Xbox One controller, no problem at all in both configs. By playing it with the PS5 DualSense controller, the game supports haptic feedback and dynamic triggers. In finishing, I also played the game sometimes by streaming on my local network via Steam. There too the game turned out to be very interesting. I’m waiting for my Steamdeck portable console, looking forward to trying it.

In conclusion

Marvel’s Spider-Man was basically a good game in 2018 on PS4 and it is still today in 2022. The remarkable work that was done by the developer team to make it current makes him a real game PC of 2022. I loved my playing time on Marvel’s Spider-Man and I do not hesitate to recommend it to you. For all his reasons, I award him the score of 9/10.
