Insomniac Games Announces 'Marvel's Spider-Man' PS4 DLC Release Schedule

Insomniac Games has revealed some key details about the upcoming post-launch DLC plans for “Marvel’s Spider-Man” for the PlayStation 4. The upcoming DLC is called “The City That Never Sleeps” and the first chapter will be available on Oct. 23.

The first chapter of “The City That Never Sleeps” DLC is titled The Heist, and it will provide a proper introduction to Felicia Hardy, a.k.a. Black Cat. When gamers play the “Marvel’s Spider-Man” base game, they will see clues scattered all over the city, hinting that Black Cat is back in New York. Black Cat will play central role in The Heist. Insomniac Games said that The Heist will also include new missions and challenges, as well as “a brand new faction of enemies and three additional suits to unlock.”

The Heist will be available on Oct. 23, while the other two chapters of “The City That Never Sleeps” DLC will be released in November and December. Insomniac Games has already revealed the title of the latter two chapters of the DLC. The second chapter is titled Turf Wars, while the third is called Silver Lining.

For those who want to get all three chapters of “The City Never Sleeps” DLC, they can buy all three installments for a bundle that costs $24.99, according to IGN. Gamers also have the option to buy each chapter for $9.99. The DLC is now available to buy from the PlayStation Store.

Gamers can also buy the $79.99 Digital Deluxe Edition of “Marvel’s Spider-Man” that includes the full base game and all three chapters of “The City That Never Sleeps” DLC. Those who pre-order the Digital Deluxe Edition will also get pre-order bonuses, including a physical Spider-Man pin.

“Additionally, for those of you attending PAX Prime in Seattle this weekend, Marvel’s Spider-Man will be playable in the exhibit hall so you can go hands on before the game comes out,” Insomniac Games community director James Stevenson said. “Thanks for all your support of ‘Marvel’s Spider-Man.’ We cannot wait for you to play the game, and we’re working hard to bring you additional content in the form of the ‘Marvel’s Spider-Man: The City That Never Sleeps’ over the rest of 2018.”

“Marvel’s Spider-Man” will be released next week, specifically on Sept. 7, and is exclusively available on the PS4 platform.
