Yuri Lowenthal, the voice of Peter Parker, drops some tantalizing hints about Spider-Man 3. At a recent charity event dubbed MultiCon, held on February 22 and featuring notable guests like Kevin Smith and Rob Liefeld, Lowenthal confirmed something all fans hoped to hear: Peter is alive and kicking!
This revelation comes hot on the heels of Spider-Man 2’s cliffhanger ending, which left many wondering if our web-slinger would take a backseat. It turns out that Peter will be front and center once again, playing a crucial part in the campaign. Seriously, how can you have Spider-Man without Spider-Man?
A report from The Direct sheds light on Lowenthal’s comments. He quipped:
“There are very few things that I can say about this game, but you have somehow landed on the one thing that I can answer, and that’s that, yes, Peter is not gone. He will be a part of the next game and he won’t be relegated to the couch, I promise.”
The community has been buzzing with theories about what this could mean for gameplay dynamics. Speculation suggests we might see three protagonists in this sequel, think along the lines of Grand Theft Auto V, but with webs instead of cars. The rumor mill indicates players could switch seamlessly between characters at will using mechanics introduced in Spider-Man 2.
Add Cindy Moon (aka Silk) as an additional playable character. Now, that’s an enticing thought! Imagine swinging through New York City with three different heroes at your fingertips; it might redefine how we experience open-world games.
