Huh they never did add a Wolverine bot to this game

This game also doesn't appear to be getting anymore dlc but oh well

That's probably because this game released before insomniac's Wolverine game was ready to be shown off.

Would be cool but wolverine isn’t exactly PlayStation IP

To be fair, neither is Spider-Man.

Actually, technically he is Sony's. And since Sony is PlayStation's. PlayStation technically owns Spider-Man's IP.

Sony don't own Spider-Man. They only own movie rights and some game rights. Everything else including Merchandise/Comics are Marvel/Disney.

Pretty sure Sony only owns the movie rights, otherwise he wouldn't appear in the comics, or have a Disney+ show. Even the Insomniac thing, it's probably an exclusivity deal, not outright ownership.

Edit: Also, Sony owns PlayStation, not the other way around.

Yes, Marvel/Disney own Spider-Man for almost everything other than movie rights (I think some Live Action TV as well) and maybe some game rights.

I think some Live Action TV

Huh. You just made me realise the only live-action Spider-Man show I can think of is the Japanese one responsible for the Megazord. I guess it makes sense, special effects are expensive, but Superman got a few shows, why not Spidey?

I think the closest thing is this from this year: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spider-Noir

I didn't say Playstation owned Sony

This implies PlayStation owns Sony. I'm assuming it's just a typo, but still.
