Insomniac's Recent Job Listing Hints at Early Production of Marvel's Spider-Man 3
A newly surfaced Insomniac Games job posting suggests Marvel's Spider-Man 3 may be in its initial development phase. This follows the immense critical and commercial success of Insomniac's previous Spider-Man titles, and the numerous unresolved plot points left dangling in 2023's Spider-Man 2. While Insomniac has confirmed Spider-Man 3's existence, details remain scarce.
Speculation surrounding Spider-Man 3 intensified after its inclusion in a leaked Insomniac game list following the PS5 launch of Spider-Man 2. Further leaks hinted at new character introductions within the Insomniac universe, though a release date remains years away.
The job listing, for a Senior UX Researcher, specifies involvement in a "AAA title" in early production, requiring a three-month residency at Insomniac's Burbank UX Lab.
Considering past leaks, Marvel's Spider-Man 3 appears the most likely candidate. Marvel's Wolverine, reportedly in development for years, is supposedly progressing smoothly. Rumors of a Venom-centric Spider-Man 2 spin-off, potentially releasing this year, are also circulating, making it less probable that this project is in early production.
This leaves either Spider-Man 3 or a rumored Ratchet and Clank title slated for 2029. Given Insomniac's current focus on expanding its Marvel universe, Spider-Man 3 is the more likely contender. However, this remains speculation. Regardless, the job posting confirms Insomniac's active development of a new game, exciting news for PlayStation enthusiasts.
