2018 was a year that saw the release of some of the best video games of all time. Instant classics like God of War and Red Dead Redemption 2 finally hit the shelves, while titles like Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and Celeste introduced new players to the world of gaming.
One of the indisputable champions of the video game world last year was, of course, Marvel’s Spider-Man.
The PlayStation 4 exclusive from Insomniac Games launched to more than impressive sale numbers, and thanks to its brilliant gameplay, fantastic mechanics and wonderful story, it’s a title that’s consistently drawn players in.
It’s just been revealed that Marvel’s Spider-Man isn’t just one of the best-selling PlayStation exclusives of all time, but it’s actually the best-selling superhero game in the US on any platform, ever.
Yes, Peter Parker and his chums have officially outsold the iconic Batman: Arkham City, which held the top spot for biggest number of superhero sales for a long, long time.
Interestingly, Marvel’s Spider-Man is the only game on the superhero list of top ten best-selling titles that’s exclusive to one console, showing just how damn popular this game really is.
The news was revealed during San Diego Comic Con, which is currently underway.
Despite coming up to its one year anniversary, Marvel’s Spider-Man is still getting new content and updates – something us fans can’t get enough of.
In celebration of the brand-new Marvel movie release, Spider-Man: Far From Home, Insomniac Games recently offered up two free in-game costumes for Spidey to wear during his web-slinging adventures.
It might seem like a small gesture, but for a game that basically redefined how great Photo Mode can be, fashion is everything.
A big congratulations to everyone at Insomniac Games for this treasure of a title!
