If you’ve taken advantage of the PS5 Slim Black Friday offer and are now stepping into the PlayStation world, you should definitely consider grabbing Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales. Best Buy has it on sale for just $20, while Amazon has already run out of stock. Serving as a bridge between the main entries of the series, Miles Morales offers a more condensed, yet fulfilling adventure, almost like an extensive DLC rather than an entirely new game.
For those new to the series, the Ultimate Edition is a smart choice. It’s packed with both Miles Morales and Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered, which is an enhanced version of the beloved 2018 PS4 hit. While you could purchase the remaster separately on PSN, opting for the Ultimate Edition makes more sense, especially since it’s currently discounted to $40. This bundle gives you two games for less than the price of Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered on its own, which is $10 more if bought separately.
Whether you decide to pick up just Miles Morales or go for the Ultimate Edition, you’ll be snagging them at historically low prices.
Even though Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is an excellent follow-up and doesn’t require familiarity with earlier games, experiencing the previous titles will enrich your understanding of the story and its references. Plus, Insomniac’s earlier Spider-Man adventures are equally fantastic and worth playing.
