Spider-Man’s New Game Plus Is Here

17 minutes ago

If you've already completed Insomniac's Spider-Man game, there's now a reason to swing back in. The long-promised New Game+ for Spider-Man was made available via a free update today. Now those who have completed the campaign can jump back in and play it again. In addition to the New Game Plus Mode, a new "Ultimate" difficulty setting has also been added to the game. Here's what you'll be greeted with when you update your game file right now.

The New Game Plus was promised early on and was actually expected to ship with the initial game, however, Insomniac decided that the mode wasn't quite ready for launch day, and was held back. Insomniac had stayed quiet about a specific launch date, and didn't officially announce this update was coming, but here it is.

While I've only briefly scratched the surface of the New Game Plus mode, it works the way most modes of this type do. All the gadgets, upgrades to gadgets, suits, and skills that you had at the end of the base game are unlocked at the beginning of New Game Plus. You get to choose a new difficulty setting, so you can give the new Ultimate mode a try alongside the new New Game Plus if you're feeling up to it. Which, since most early combat is going to be a breeze with all your abilities unlocked, isn't a bad idea.

More to come...
