The Spider-Man PC release date is now set in stone, marking the latest in a series of surprising moves from Sony, with the tech giant gradually porting its PlayStation-exclusive games to PC.
That’s right, folks. Sony-owned developer Insomniac Games is bringing its much-loved 2018 Spider-Man game to PC, with computer-based players due to receive the remastered version of the PS4/PS5 game later this year.
In terms of features, the Spider-Man PC version will boast PC-optimised graphics, ray-traced reflections, improved shadows, ultra-wide monitor support and customisable control options (including full mouse and keyboard support).
So, when does Spider-Man Remastered come to PC, and what else do you need to know? Read on for the release date details, plus the system requirements and pre-order deals that you won’t want to miss.
