Summary
AMarvel’s Spider-Man 2player has discovered a novel method to swing through the city as Venom. The community has shown some excitement about this recently foundMarvel’s Spider-Man 2glitch and demonstrated eagerness to control the villain’s powers and traverse across New York.
Released on October 20,Spider-Man 2has quickly become a sales success, amassing over five million copies sold. The excitement within the gaming community has been palpable, with players eagerly delving into the world developed by Insomniac Games. The new installment features one of the most iconic villains in the Spider-Man universe, and a dedicated player has found a way to play as him.

UnderTheHood788 shared a thrilling video on Reddit, showcasing the newfound method toplay as Venom inSpider-Man 2. The glitch involves a strategic unplug of the PS5 during a specific cutscene transition. After unplugging and replugging, when players load the save, they should get the “Don’t be scared” mission, but with no objective. Once they load as Peter, they have to go to an unidentified target mission or a Talon drone mission and wait a bit. Eventually, it should switch them to Venom. If not, UnderTheHood788 advises preloading and trying again.
According to the player, it’s relatively easy to use the glitch, but the only challenging part is the timing on the force crash/unplug. This new method is considered better than the previousglitch that allowed players to roam as Venom inSpider-Man 2. The glitch not only lets players control Venom but also grants them access to symbiote abilities, enhancing the gaming experience.
This glitch isn’t the first time players have yearned to embody the character. Insomniac Games previouslypatched a glitch that allowedSpider-Man 2players to play as Venom. Despite the excitement of fans about this new discovery, some comments on the Reddit post also highlighted the problems that might arise from unplugging the PS5 too many times. However, UnderTheHood788 assured that if players use a different save than the main ones, there is no damage to be afraid of.
The continued enthusiasm for playing as this villain highlights the connection players forge with their favorite characters in the Spider-Man universe. As players swing through the city as Venom, the glitch adds a new layer of excitement toSpider-Man 2’s already captivating gameplay. Whether Insomniac Games will patch this glitch remains to be seen, but for now, players revel in the unique experience of embodying Venom.
