Spider-Man 2 New Game Plus: Release date confirmed & latest news
Do we just start again?
While there is more than enough to keep you busy in Insomniac Games' massive sequel, this hasn't stopped fans wondering if there is a Spider-Man 2 New Game Plus mode or not.
With so many excellent missions, we can't say we blame you. We'd love to replay them all without losing our character progress too!

We were really taken by Spider-Man 2, as can be read in our review, so it's no surprise that we've collected every trophy to keep playing the game as long as possible.
Now, though, it's about time for some New Game Plus shenanigans to suck us right back into the world of Peter and Miles.
Fortunately, the Spider-Man 2 New Game Plus release date has been confirmed! Crawl your way down the page to find out when the New Game Plus option will be added to the game.
When is the Spider-Man 2 New Game Plus mode release date? Latest news
Spider-Man 2 will have a New Game Plus mode from 7th March 2024. This has been confirmed by Insomniac Games, detailing that it will be included as part of a big game update set to go live on that day.
This news of the Spider-Man 2 New Game Plus release date was confirmed over on Insomniac Games' official X (you know, what used to be Twitter) account. Check it out below for more details on what to expect from the big new update:
Surprisingly, Spider-Man 2 didn't have a New Game Plus option at launch. While this was disappointing, it's great to finally have a release date for the New Game Plus option at last.
The New Game Plus mode isn't too far off in the distance, but slightly longer than originally planned, as we'll get into below.

Can you keep playing after the ending in Spider-Man 2?
As we have said, Spider-Man 2 is an open-world sandbox with plenty to do. If you've only finished the main storyline, there are over 10 hours worth of side quests to get stuck into.
And even then, don't forget that New York is the city that never sleeps. There will always be crimes to stop, in between swinging through the streets you keep safe.
Also, the Ultimate difficulty is unlocked as soon as you finish the game – the same one that came later with a patch for the first release.
It's essentially a harder difficulty to start the game with. It's not quite New Game Plus, but it'll give you a challenge if things are getting too easy!
All of the above will have to do until 7th March – the Spider-Man 2 New Game Plus release date.
