The latest update for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has arrived, although this one specifically targets the PC port of the game.

If you’re someone who’s enjoying the game via that platform, then you can download Patch 5 for free now.

It should've been automatically downloaded, but it’s perhaps worth checking just to be sure you’re actually benefiting from this new swathe of changes.

When you do check, you want to make sure your game is running Version 1.312.0.0.

You can take a look at Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 in action below.

So let’s take a look at those patch notes.

  • Optimised performance when playing as Venom, fighting Symbiotes and in cinematics with Venom and Symbiotes.
  • Improved DLSS Ray Reconstruction to reduce noise in the shadows of facial details.
  • Updated DirectStorage to version 1.2.3.
  • Fixed a bug where UI elements would not load properly during Prowler side quests when both frame generation and upscaling were enabled.
  • Resolved a bug that could cause the Hunter Blinds minigame controls to appear outside of the minigame.
  • Mouse and keyboard will no longer become unresponsive when using different input devices while in Photo Mode.
  • Fixed a bug that prevented players from taking photos when mapping the Gadget Modifier to middle mouse button.
  • Improvements to screen space reflections to prevent flickering when looking at large bodies of water from a near-straight angle.
  • Fixed a bug where hovering over headers in the settings menu would trigger a sound effect.
  • Resolved a bug that caused a line break in the description of settings for some languages.
  • Addressed a bug where the selected sticker in Photo Mode would be off screen.
  • FNSM App description now correctly shows [HOLD] instead of [SWIPE] when playing with an Xbox controller.
  • Various crash fixes and stability improvements.
  • Various performance optimisations.
  • Various improvements related to ray-traced reflections.
  • Various DLSS Ray Reconstruction improvements.
  • Various fixes to ray-traced ambient occlusion and ray-traced shadows.
  • Various user interface bug fixes and improvements.

Fair to say, those of us on console are itching to learn what’s next for the franchise. Marvel’s Spider-Man 3 is surely on the way, but the question is when?

I’m imagining Insomniac is planning on launching Marvel’s Wolverine first.

It would be nice to get an update on that game soon; Let’s all keep our fingers crossed.
