Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered

The step taken by the Insomniac development team with this game was very significant. The studio we’ve known over the years for action and platform games like the Ratchet and Clank series, and even shooting games like Resistance, aimed to create something completely different. A superhero game for the extremely popular character Spider-Man. Despite all the doubts, challenges and difficulties, Insomniac has proven that it is up to the responsibility and presented one of the best superhero games of all time, and now it is finally available in an improved version on the PC platform.

The PC Version of Spider-Man: A Remaster

The game was originally released on the Sony PlayStation 4 home console in 2018 and achieved great success. At the time of writing, this game is the most successful first-party interactive entertainment game in Sony’s history. With this game, Sony finally has a title with an “iconic” character, as it is. Super Mario with Nintendo and Master Chief with Xbox. Yes, Crash Bandicoot didn’t quite succeed in playing this role, but Spider-Man has become the first PlayStation icon. Perhaps the development team “Rocksteady” was inspired by this title, as the Batman games achieved extraordinary success and increased the level of… and productivity of superhero games as a whole.

The Visual Beauty of Spider-Man on PC

The PC version of the game is a remaster, which means that it retains all of the many advantages of the original game that we have previously tested and admired, as well as the few shortcomings that we hope to avoid in the next part. The game still offers unparalleled smoothness and a wonderful adaptation of Spider-Man’s abilities and personality, with swinging between towering skyscrapers in New York or unique combat skills and the use of sticky webs or even climbing buildings. The game follows Sony’s design philosophy and style. It is based on great fluidity and sophisticated game mechanics without excessive complexity. Added to this is the power of animation, which has become a Sony trademark. You won’t find the depth of parkour and complicated mechanics here that you might find in a game like Dying Light 2, but who said that depth and complexity necessarily make a better game?

The PC Experience and Support for Wide Screens

We won’t focus on the original game, but will instead go over the PC version of the game, Spider-Man. Although it is a relatively old game, it is still a very beautiful game on a visual level. We managed the experiment on our special gaming device in Trugaming, which is equipped with an RTX 3090 graphics card. We enjoyed all the visual effects and ray tracing of reflections as they first appeared from Insomniac with the release of Miles Morales on PlayStation 5. The graphics quality is superior to the original game, but in the end it is still a remaster as can be seen from the title of the game and the difference is not very big and yet the experience is smoother with an open frame rate and support of DLSS Function from Nvidia, without which the very stressful experience for gaming devices with the activation of 4K ray tracing would not have been possible. The game is still full of details and Spider-Man’s costume sometimes makes you feel like you can feel his fabric with your hands.

Enhanced Features and Controller Support

This version of the game supports wide screens and ultra-wide screens with dimensions of 32:9, as is the case with the Samsung G9 screen. With Nvidia’s special technology for this, the game can also be played on 3 screens at the same time – an option that we couldn’t try out due to space constraints. Sony has spared no effort and this version also added support for the “DualSense” controller when connected to the computer via cable. However, many computer enthusiasts will enjoy trying to control the mouse keyboard, a control that the development team of this version, “Nexus”, has put a lot of effort into. The entire experience can be easily experienced in Control using this method.

Sony’s Impact on PC Gaming

We believe that Sony is building a very big name in the field of personal computers and it undoubtedly represents a great addition to the platform with its digital stores. The personal computer has been known in first place since the nineties of the last century until today for group games and electronic sports games, but it has never been the best at single-player games, despite having taken over thousands of them over the years. Sony fills a gap in the computer platform and offers a very large complement of single player games. There’s also a big difference between Sony’s previous and current handling of the platform, from Horizon, which suffered from many problems. In publishing performance and irrational consumption of video memory to games that support ray tracing, DLSS technology and all the various PC technologies that make the game compatible with a wide range of devices, peripherals, displays and panels, to to meet the needs of millions of gamers. Sony presents one of the best adventure and action games on PC in an essential Spider-Man adventure.
