It was the biggest Spidey outrage since his emo phase in Spider-Man 3.<\/p>\n<p>Jump forward to today and we\u2019ve got some good news\u2026 well, Xbox and Switch players are still missing out, but now PC-based gamers can play the Spider-Man game in all its glory!<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/spider-man-pc-release-date\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Spider-Man PC<\/a> port is launching very soon, but is it worth forking out for? The game is four years old now, so does it actually hold up all that well? Here at <a href=\"\/\/RadioTimes.com&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">RadioTimes.com<\/a>, we\u2019ve tried the PC game early and we\u2019re here to answer those very questions!<\/p>\n<ul><li><a href=\"\/\/www.cdkeys.com\/pc\/marvel-s-spider-man-remastered-pc-steam&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;sponsored noopener noreferrer\" noopener=\"\" noreferrer=\"\"><strong>Get Spider-Man PC for just \u00a338.49 at CD Keys<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><p>Long story short, you really should be playing this game if you haven\u2019t already had the pleasure. It remains one of the greatest superhero adventures in gaming history, right up there with Rocksteady\u2019s Batman-starring Arkham games, and its core story is one that packs a real emotional punch.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, emotions aren\u2019t the only things getting punched here, as the combat is also brilliant. Dodging, punching and covering your enemies in sticky webbing still feels utterly great, and the various suit powers available mean that you can mix it up regularly to keep things fresh for yourself.<\/p>\n<p>The game\u2019s realisation of New York City is also second to none, one of the most visually stunning cityscapes in the open-world gaming lexicon. Traversing around by web-swinging looks and feels just right, and the game\u2019s swelling orchestral score complements every movement perfectly. Side missions task you with exploring every nook and cranny of the map, and it never feels like a chore.<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"&quot;Marvel's\" spider-man=\"\" remastered=\"\" pc=\"\" features=\"\" trailer=\"\" i=\"\" games=\"\" width=\"&quot;200&quot;\" height=\"&quot;113&quot;\" src=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1E051WtpyWg?feature=oembed&quot;\" frameborder=\"&quot;0&quot;\" allow=\"&quot;accelerometer;\" autoplay=\"\" clipboard-write=\"\" encrypted-media=\"\" gyroscope=\"\" picture-in-picture=\"\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\/>\n<p>Except for the 2020 spinoff starring Miles Morales (that one\u2019s coming to PC this autumn), there hasn\u2019t been a superhero game anywhere near this calibre in the years since its initial launch. Upcoming rivals <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/gotham-knights-release-date-trailer-story-news\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Gotham Knights<\/a> and <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/suicide-squad-kill-justice-league-release-date\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League<\/a> will have quite a task on their hands trying to match this.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of PC-specific features, there are loads of technical treats for computer-loving gamers to enjoy here. The Spider-Man PC port is based on the remastered PS5 version, meaning that you get the best graphics possible (including the replacement face for Peter Parker, which looks a lot more realistic than the original in-game avatar).<\/p> <p>Of course, it\u2019s in the graphics where you\u2019ll see the most evidence of these upgrades \u2013 from ray-traced reflections to atoms of dust floating in the air, everything in this game looks visually excellent. The city looks stunning as you swing through it, and the character models look very realistic to us.<\/p>\n<p>We reviewed the game using an NVIDIA 3070 Ti graphics card, and we didn\u2019t have any complaints about the performance or the visuals. Ultra-wide monitor support is also a nice touch, but we didn\u2019t have a chance to test that (suffice it to say that the game looked great on our OLED telly and our 4K PC monitor, though).<\/p>\n<p>Our recommendation? Go get it, tiger. If you\u2019ve been waiting to play this game because you\u2019re not in the PlayStation ecosystem, here\u2019s your chance. Allow it to make the most of your PC set-up and you won\u2019t be disappointed. And by the time you hit those emotional wallops, they might just distract you from the visual excellence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spider-Man PC launches on 12th August at 4pm on Steam.
