Insomniac's Recent Job Listing Hints at Early Development of Marvel's Spider-Man 3
A newly posted job listing at Insomniac Games suggests that Marvel's Spider-Man 3 could be in its early production phase. This follows the immense critical and commercial success of Insomniac's previous Spider-Man titles, and the numerous plot threads left dangling in 2023's Spider-Man 2. While Insomniac has confirmed Spider-Man 3's development, details remain scarce.
Speculation surrounding Marvel's Spider-Man 3 intensified after its inclusion in a leaked Insomniac game list following Spider-Man 2's PS5 release. Further leaks hinted at new character introductions, though the game is likely still years from launch.
A job posting for a Senior UX Researcher, requiring a three-month stint at Insomniac's Burbank UX Lab to work on an early-production AAA title, fuels the Spider-Man 3 hypothesis.
Considering Other Possibilities
Other Insomniac projects mentioned in previous leaks include Marvel's Wolverine (reportedly in advanced development) and a rumored Venom spin-off (a potential half-sequel to Spider-Man 2) possibly releasing this year. The timeline makes the Venom game an unlikely candidate for the early-production project described in the job posting. This leaves either Marvel's Spider-Man 3 or a new Ratchet and Clank title (rumored for 2029) as the most probable candidates. Given Insomniac's current Marvel focus, Spider-Man 3 appears the more likely scenario.
Regardless of the specific title, the job listing confirms Insomniac is actively developing a new game, exciting news for PlayStation enthusiasts. While definitive confirmation awaits, the evidence strongly suggests Marvel's Spider-Man 3 is underway.
