Insomniac Begins Work on Marvel's Spider-Man 3

Insomniac's New Job Listing Hints at Early Development of Marvel's Spider-Man 3

A recent job posting at Insomniac Games suggests the studio is in the early stages of production on a new AAA title. Speculation points strongly towards this being Marvel's Spider-Man 3, given the studio's ongoing success with the Spider-Man franchise and the numerous plot threads left open in the recently released Spider-Man 2. While Insomniac has confirmed Spider-Man 3's existence, details remain scarce.

Previous leaks, including a significant data breach following Spider-Man 2's launch, mentioned Marvel's Spider-Man 3 among upcoming Insomniac projects. These leaks also hinted at potential character introductions, though a release date is likely still years away.

The job listing, seeking a Senior UX Researcher, specifically mentions working on a AAA title already in early production at Insomniac's Burbank UX Lab. This timeline aligns less with other rumored Insomniac projects. Marvel's Wolverine is reportedly further along in development, while a rumored Venom spin-off (a half-sequel to Spider-Man 2) is speculated for release this year, making early production less likely. A new Ratchet and Clank game, rumored for 2029, also seems less probable given Insomniac's current Marvel focus.

Therefore, while not definitively confirmed, the evidence strongly suggests that the new AAA title is indeed Marvel's Spider-Man 3. This news alone is exciting for PlayStation fans, indicating that Insomniac is already actively working on the next chapter in the popular Spider-Man game series.
