Insomniac's Recent Job Posting Hints at Early Development of Marvel's Spider-Man 3
A newly surfaced job posting at Insomniac Games suggests the early stages of production for Marvel's Spider-Man 3. This follows the immense critical and commercial success of Insomniac's previous Spider-Man titles, and the numerous unresolved plot points left dangling in 2023's Spider-Man 2. While Insomniac has confirmed Spider-Man 3's existence, details remain scarce.
Speculation surrounding Spider-Man 3 intensified after its inclusion in a leaked Insomniac game list following the PS5 release of Spider-Man 2. Further leaks hinted at new character introductions within the Insomniac universe, although a release date remains years away.
The job listing, for a Senior UX Researcher, specifically mentions leading research for a AAA title in early production, requiring a three-month stint at Insomniac's Burbank UX Lab.
Spider-Man 3: The Most Likely Candidate
Considering previous leaks, Marvel's Spider-Man 3 appears the most probable candidate. Marvel's Wolverine, another Insomniac project, is reportedly in advanced development, while rumors of a Venom-centric Spider-Man 2 spin-off slated for this year seem to contradict the "early production" description.
This leaves either Spider-Man 3 or a rumored Ratchet and Clank title planned for 2029. Given Insomniac's current focus on expanding its Marvel universe, Spider-Man 3 is the more likely scenario, though this remains speculative.
Regardless of the specific title, the job posting confirms Insomniac's active development of a new game, exciting news for PlayStation enthusiasts.
