Mary-Jane is playable in Spider-Man, developer Insomniac has confirmed.
“I can confirm, yes you actually play, at various stages of the game, Mary-Jane,” Creative Director, Bryan Intihar, told IGN.
“It’s a very different experience to playing as Spider-Man,” he continued, “and it stays true to her character, in terms of her background that she’s a reporter for the Daily Bugle. It captures that feeling. Also, the other thing for us is that, even though we are creating a superhero world in the fantasy, we thought it’d be interesting to show what it’s like to be a character who doesn’t have superpowers, what it’s like to be that person in a superhero world, and actually control that character.”
While fellow Spider-Man Miles Morales has featured in trailers, Insomniac hasn’t confirmed he’ll be a playable character. Peter Parker dons the Spidey mask for (what we assume will be) the majority of the game.
Spider-Man is expected in 2018 on PS4.
