Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered Review

Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered Review

The development team Insomniac has made a big move with this game. The studio that we have known over the years with action and platform games like the Ratchet and Clank series and even shooter games like Resistence was aspiring to develop something completely different; A superhero game for the hugely popular Spider-Man, and despite the doubts, challenges and difficulties Insomniac proved to be responsible and presented one of the best superhero games ever, and here it is finally arriving with its improved version on the PC platform.

The game was originally released on Sony’s home console PlayStation 4 in 2018 and has achieved huge successes. As of the moment of this writing, this game is the most successful first-party game in Sony’s history of interactive entertainment. Sony with this game finally has a title with an “iconic” character just as it is Super Mario with Nintendo and Master Chief with Xbox, yes Crash Bandicoot did not quite succeed in playing this role, but Spider-Man has become the icon of the first PlayStation and the development team “Rocksteady” may have inspired this title with the extraordinary success of Batman games and raising the level of and productivity of superhero games as a whole.

The PC version of the game is a remaster, which means that it retains all the many features of the original game that we previously reviewed and liked, and the few flaws that we hope the next installment will address. The game still offers unparalleled fluidity and a great adaptation of the abilities and character of Spider-Man with swinging between tall New York skyscrapers, unique combat abilities, using sticky nets or even climbing buildings, the game follows Sony's design philosophy and style that is based on great fluidity and elaborate gameplay mechanics without over-complication Add to this the power of animation, which has become one of Sony's distinguishing marks. You won't find the depth of parkour and tangled mechanics that you would encounter in a game like Dying Light 2 here, but who said depth and complexity necessarily lead to a better game?

We will not dwell on the original game, but we will move on to the PC version of the game, Spiderman, although it is a relatively old game, but it is still a very beautiful game on a visual level, we tested it on our gaming machine in Trojiming, which is equipped with an RTX 3090 graphics card And we enjoyed the full visual effects and ray tracing of reflections as it first appeared from Insomniac with the release of Miles Morales on the PlayStation 5, the quality of the graphics is superior to the original game, but it is still a remaster in the end as it is clear from the title of the game and the difference is not very huge, however, the experience is more Smoothness with an open frame rate and support for DLSS feature from Nvidia, without which it would not have been possible to experience with 4k ray tracing enabled, which is very stressful for gaming devices. The game is still full of details and the Spider-Man costume sometimes makes you feel like you can feel his fabric with your hands.

This version of the game supports wide screens and ultra-wide screens with dimensions of 32:9, as is the case with the Samsung G9 screen, and it can also be played on 3 screens at once with the technology for that from Nvidia, an option that we could not try due to limited space, Sony spared no effort with This version also added support for the “Dual Sense” control tool when wired to the computer, but many computer enthusiasts will be happy when trying to control the mouse and keyboard, which is a control in which the development team for this version “Nexus” made a significant effort, and the entire experience can be experienced with this method in Control without problems.

We feel that Sony is building a very heavy name on the PC, and it is undoubtedly a great addition to the platform with its digital stores. The PC has been known since the nineties of the last century until this day as the first place for team games and e-sports games, but it was never the best in single-player games despite It has embraced thousands of them over the years, Sony fills a gap on the PC platform and offers a very big addition with single-player games that have a high production value and greatly increase the diversity of the platform, and there is a big difference between Sony's previous and current dealings with the platform, from Horizon, which suffered from many problems. In performance at release and illogical consumption of video memory, to games that support ray tracing and DLSS technology and all the various PC technologies that make the game compatible with a very large variety of devices, peripherals, screens and control panel to suit the needs of millions of gamers. Sony presents one of the best action and adventure games on PC in the unmissable adventure of Spider-Man.

Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered

Great adaptation of the abilities and character of Spider-Man, excellent features of the PC version in terms of control and performance.

The defects of the original game such as poor side content and a sense of repetition or unevenness in the level of some parts of the game.

The PC version of Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered is the most complete version of one of the best, if not the best, superhero games of all time.
