The PC version of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will be out in a couple days: no pre-orders open, no system requirements and no ads

The upcoming PC release of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is generating considerable buzz, but not for the reasons Sony might have hoped. The lack of any pre-release marketing, the absence of pre-orders, and the undisclosed system requirements are fueling speculation and concern among gamers.

Sony's recent strategy of shrinking the release window between PlayStation and PC versions has already faced backlash from console players. However, factors like the underperformance of Final Fantasy 16 might be prompting a reassessment of this approach.

The earlier-than-usual announcement of the PC version of Spider-Man 2 fueled rumors of a potential simultaneous release across both platforms. This, however, has upset PlayStation loyalists who value the exclusivity of their console.

Furthermore, the PSN regional lock-in system negatively impacts sales by creating a cumbersome purchasing experience for many players.

The future of Marvel's Spider-Man 2's PC launch remains unclear. The lack of pre-orders and system specifications hints at a potential delay. Some believe Sony may postpone the release by several months to refine the port or adjust its overall PC strategy.
