Insomniac Games has been hard at work on making Marvel's Spider-Man 2 the best game it can be on PS5, and the latest Spider-Man 2 update – version 1.001.004 – is now live and brings with it a handful of bug fixes.

While our five-star review tells you the game is "the best reason to buy a PS5", the title didn't come away unscathed - with pesky little bugs and one particularly embarrassing mistake rearing their heads.

Listen to our One More Life podcast - the new episode is about Spider-Man 2!

The development team has been listening, though, and the latest patch is another step in the right direction for the super sequel.

You'll find the full list of Spider-Man 2 update patch notes below – here's what has changed in version 1.001.004.

What changed in Spider-Man 2 Update?

While it's not the biggest update you'll ever see, Spider-Man 2 version 1.001.004 brings with it a selection of bug fixes that should improve the game in a number of ways.

One such fix should stop you from getting stuck during the finale of Marko's Memories. There are four fixes in total for instances where Spider-Man or another character could previously get stuck in a certain situation.

Another fix detailed by the developers might have resolved the Spider-Cube issue.

Insomniac has "further addressed issues where models would not load properly after long play sessions". Could it really be the end of swinging around New York as a white cube? We'll have to wait and see.

Look out below for the full list of patch notes to see what else has been fixed and changed.
