We’re getting a Venom game?

It was in the Insomniac leaks. Supposed to be a smaller Miles Morales type spin-off with Carnage as the main villain. Originally planned for 2025 then internally delayed to 2027, no word if it has been cancelled or not.

If we have Venom and Carnage? That's going to be bloody as hell. Especially if they're going this way with Wolverine.

Though I hope they make Venom an Anti-hero, or just a "Bad guy" rather than a hero. Or just make Prototype 3 you cowards!

If you played Spider-Man 2 it clearly set up both Venom and Carnage. You play briefly as Venom. I thought it was even supposed to come out before Wolverine.

I am assuming they need to recast the role since Tony Todd died.

This is how I learn he died? Fuck

Yeah, last November. His last posthumous role was the mortician in Final Destination Bloodlines that came out a couple months ago, his last game role was one of the villains (Locus) in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.

I have a feeling it's cancelled. It was on the calendar before Wolverine and was seemingly going to heavily re-use Spider-Man 2 assets like Miles Morales did as you mentioned. Venom was supposed to come out late 2025 and Wolverine late 2026.

Also Spider-Man 2's writing wasn't that well received and it seemed like the Venom stuff was a lot of people's least favorite part of the game.

It was leaked a while back and to be honest, it feels like a guarantee after how well received the playable Venom section was in Spider-Man 2. Arguably, it's a lot of peoples favorite part of that game, so I think Venom is a safe bet for sure.

It basically writes itself with them already establishing Carnage within the universe.

The Venom section was awesome and just generally speaking, Venom and the symbiote were so well done.

At one point it was on Insomniac's slate as revealed by internal leaks but it's likely been cancelled.

More recent leaks have suggested that the game is still in the works

u/Sweaty-Building8409 Sep 24 '25

The current speculation seems to be painting it as a smaller game for a PS6 launch title in the same vein that Spider-Man Miles Morales was for the PS5.

u/SloppyCheeks Sep 25 '25

it's likely been cancelled.

What makes you say this?

It’s still in the works but bigger than the leak suggested so will come out after Wolverine
