Around this time last year,Marvel’s Spider-Manfrom Insomniac Games swung onto the scene and delivered what was hailed by many to be one of the best superhero games of all time. Our ownSpider-Manreviewheaped praise onto the game, giving it a perfect score and naming it one of the PS4’s best exclusive games. Now those who have yet to see what all the fuss is about can pick upSpider-Manand all its DLC for a bit cheaper than usual, as Insomniac Games and PlayStation have confirmed that theSpider-Man: Game of the Year Editionis out now.
Spider-Man: Game of the Year Editionretails for $39.99, $20 off the usual asking price for the base game, and it includes all three episodes ofThe City That Never SleepsDLC. This means that those who pick up the Game of the Year Edition will be able to experience the entire story of the newSpider-Mangame, and will definitely get the most bang for their buck. Those who already have the base game and just want to try the DLC can still purchase it separately for $25.

For the uninitiated,The City That Never SleepsDLC gives Spider-Man a few new adventures. In it, Spider-Man fights back against the crime wave being led by Hammerhead, and he even gets some help from his frequent ally, the morally ambiguous Black Cat.
The City That Never SleepsDLCforSpider-Manwasn’t nearly as well-received as the base game, but it does expand the experience and gives players even more story to consume while they wait for Insomniac to announce a sequel.
ASpider-Mansequelhas yet to be announced, but there is a game coming out next May that could hold fans over in the meantime. As revealed at E3 2019,The Avengersvideo game is finally set to release in May 2020, and there are hints that suggest it exists in the same universe as Insomniac’sSpider-Mangame. Whether or not there are deeper connections remains to be seen, but fans should have a better idea once that game launches on Jun 18, 2025.
Marvel’s Spider-Manis out now, exclusively for PS4.
