Spider-Man 3 Rumored to Be in Development at Insomniac

Insomniac's Recent Job Posting Hints at Early Development of Marvel's Spider-Man 3

A newly surfaced job listing at Insomniac Games suggests the early stages of production for Marvel's Spider-Man 3. This follows the immense critical and commercial success of previous Spider-Man titles from Insomniac, and the numerous unresolved plot points left dangling in 2023's Spider-Man 2. While Insomniac has confirmed Spider-Man 3's development, details remain scarce.

Speculation surrounding Spider-Man 3 intensified after a data breach revealed a list of upcoming Insomniac projects, including the game. Leaks have also hinted at new character introductions within the Insomniac Marvel universe, though a release date remains years away.

The job posting, seeking a Senior UX Researcher, specifies involvement in a AAA title already in early production, requiring a three-month stint at Insomniac's Burbank UX Lab.

Considering past leaks, Marvel's Spider-Man 3 appears the most likely candidate. Marvel's Wolverine is reportedly well underway, and rumors of a Venom-centric Spider-Man 2 spin-off slated for this year seem to preclude it from being in such early development.

This leaves either Spider-Man 3 or a potential new Ratchet and Clank game (rumored for 2029) as the project in question. Given Insomniac's current focus on expanding its Marvel universe, Spider-Man 3 is the stronger contender, though confirmation remains elusive. Regardless, the existence of a new Insomniac game in early development is exciting news for PlayStation enthusiasts.
