Insomniac’s Spider-Man series has surpassed 50 million games sold

In 2018, Insomniac surprised us all with the release of Marvel's Spider-Man, which went on to be heralded as one of the best superhero games ever made. In late 2023, we finally got a sequel with Spider-Man 2, which has now surpassed 10 million copies sold. 

Following its release in November 2023, exclusively on PS5 consoles, Spider-Man 2 has now surpassed 10 million copies sold, as confirmed by Insomniac today:

Overall, this means Insomniac's series of Spider-Man titles, spanning the original 2018 game, the 2020 remaster, the standalone Miles Morales game and Spider-Man 2, have sold over 50 million copies combined, putting it in the upper echelon of video game franchises.

Insomniac has its own little Marvel universe going on with Spider-Man at the centre. Soon, Insomniac will expand beyond the Spiderverse, with plans for a standalone Wolverine game in 2025, followed by a full-fledged X-Men game. There will also be a third Spider-Man game released eventually, but as we learned through document leaks months ago, the sequel to Spider-Man 2 may take longer and cost more to make.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
