Is Spider-Man Morales a standalone game or an expansion? Jim Ryan clarifies the situation

The presentation of Marvel's Spider-Man Miles Morales for PS5 was not too clear and in the hours following the reveal we struggled to understand if the game will be a standalone title or an expansion for Marvel's Spider-Man, between denials and confirmations by of various insiders. Now comes a clarification from Jim Ryan.

The PlayStation CEO apologizes for the misunderstandings and clarifies that "we certainly would not have opened a high-impact next-gen show with something deceptive for consumers" confirming further the standalone nature of the game, which will not therefore be an expansion for Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered, but a project in the style of inFAMOUS First Light and Uncharted The Lost Legacy.

Insomniac Games confirmed these words on Twitter clearly defining Marvel's Spider-Man Miles Morales "a standalone video game" and confirming that further news will soon arrive. The new Spider-Man video game is expected to come out at the end of the year and accompany the launch of PlayStation 5 on the market, even in this case, however, it is not clear if Sony also has a version for PS4 and PS4 PRO in the pipeline or if the game will be available in exclusive on the Next-Gen platform.
