News Summary:
While industry insider and VGC journalist Andy Robinson has commented on the leak, neither PlayStation nor Insomniac Games have. Robinson is one of the most trustworthy sources when it comes to the video game industry. The journalist wasn’t able to say much about the leak, but he did point out that the window, September, corresponds to what he was told. In other words, Todd doesn’t seem to have made any mistakes.
The official release date for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is unspecified for this year. Like its predecessor, which debuted on September 7, 2018, it is unofficially expected to release sometime in September. How do we know that the sequel will be released clandestinely in September? Tony Todd stated as such. Todd would probably know because he is the actor who portrays Venom in the game. Although actors and actresses working on video games aren’t always given access to this information, in this case it seems as though they were because September isn’t something that appears out of nowhere.
All of this raises the question of why PlayStation hasn’t announced the game’s September release date. September isn’t that far off after all. It’s possible that this potential release date is still subject to change, so PlayStation is reluctant to comment for fear that the game will need to be delayed.
