The authors of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 revealed several details about Venome
In an exclusive interview with Entertainment Weekly, the developers of the Insomniac Games presented a new official image of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 with Venom in the main role that you can see here, and also revealed new plot details associated with this, a spied enemy.
Creative Director Brian Intiger said that in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 the studio wanted to offer a completely different plot and themes than in the previous game, and therefore the choice could only fall on the appearance of a Venom and Symbiont in the life of Peter Parker and Miles Morales.
"We wanted to try something very unusual, and I do not think that Dr. Osminog can be more unusual than Venom", – Intigula explains, – "We are talking about power, about strength, about the involvement of Peter in the creation of a Venom. I think this is what attracted us".
The narrative director Jon Paquette also explained that the main theme of the plot of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is "capture by darkness" And how symbiont will change the life of not only Peter Parker, but also those who surround him.
"One of the most remarkable features of Spider-Man as a character is that he always has to make sacrifices", – Said Packett. "Symbiont gives a lot of material, so to speak, from this point of view".
This story is about what is happening when darkness prevails. Symbiont affects not only St. Petersburg.These are close and relatives, surrounding the bearers who have to see what is happening to the person whom they love. A lot of drama can be extracted from this.
The senior artist Jasinda Chu, in turn, said that some details of the plot had a direct impact on the design of Venom, for example, a symbol of a spider on his chest.
One of the problems we encountered during production was the following: how much Venom says? I remember how at the very beginning we did the concepts of Venom and asked: "He has lips? Does he laugh? Does he smile? Is he frowning?". This is a thin line between making this creature frightening and frightening, but at the same time, I think, easily recognizable.
"For us, Venom is a carrier plus symbiont", – adds intigar, – "It is impossible to get Venom, not related to both of them". Tony Todd (an actor playing this character, -. Ed.) personifies this connection. I think that, except for everything else, Casting Tony allowed us to feel more confident in the visual design of the character".
Recall that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 will be available exclusively for PS5 from October 20, 2023. More detailed information about the game may appear tomorrow, as the San Diego Comic-Con panel is planned completely dedicated to the game.
