While, Insomniac Games has already confirmed that the studio's "largest team ever" has begun working on the upcoming "Spider-Man" for PS4, the game developer is yet to announce an exact release date. The "Spider-Man" PS4 game was unveiled at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2016 event along with an in-game engine demo. The trailer showed Peter Parker as Spider-Man in a new suit featuring a white spider emblem. The reason behind the white spider symbol is not known yet.

What's confirmed about the upcoming "Spider-Man" PS4 game is that its plot will be a standalone story and not linked to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and next year's "Spider-Man: Homecoming" movie. Creative director Bill Rosemann revealed that gamers can expect the "Spider-Man" PS4 to be full of mysteries. The game is expected to feature an huge open-world gameplay in New York, reported Yibada. Previous reports suggested that Martin Lin a.k.a. Mister Negative might feature as the main villain in the upcoming "Spider-Man" PS4 title. In the E3 2016 trailer, Spiderman can be seen fighting with masked criminals, who are wearing the same masks that Negative's gang members wear in the comics, reported The Bitbag.

As far as "Spider-Man" PS4 release date is concerned, there's no word from the makers yet. Recently, US retailer GameStop listed December 26, 2017 as the game's release date. However, it was when a fan on Twitter asked the studio about the release date rumors, a spokesperson responded saying that the PS4 exclusive is unlikely to be given an official release date anytime soon. The studio went on to explain that the listed release date on GameStop is just a placeholder and reiterating that there is no release date just yet.

When one fan speculated that the game wouldn't get a launch for another two years, the gaming studio claimed that the speculation was not true.

"Who said it was 2 years away?" Insomniac replied, according to Express. "Just stay tuned. We're still working on it and can narrow it down closer."

It is expected that the still untitled "Spider-Man" for PS4 game won't get a release date before 2018. Stay tuned to SWR for more updates on "Spider-Man" PS4 release date and gameplay.
