Marvel’s Spider-Man on PS4 will not upgrade to PS5 for free


Sony’s latest PlayStation 5 console is currently on pre-sale in different countries and it is selling swiftly. The company has since announced that 99% of PS4 games will be compatible with PS5. However, it appears that some of the games will not be upgradable for free, at least Marvel’s Spider-Man will not be. Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition will include a complete remake of the original game “Marvel’s Spider-Man”.

Marvel's Spider-Man on PS4

In a recent statement, the company said

Marvel’s Spider-Man: Remastered is an enhanced version of Marvel’s Spider-Man, and is included as part of Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition for the PlayStation 5. In addition, players who purchase Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales on PlayStation 4 can upgrade at no additional cost to the PS5 version of Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales and can take advantage of a paid-upgrade to download Marvel’s Spider-Man: Remastered.

There are no plans currently to offer Marvel’s-Spider-Man: Remastered as a standalone. Players with a copy of Marvel’s Spider-Man for PS4 can purchase Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition to experience Marvel’s Spider-Man: Remastered on PS5. Marvel’s Spider-Man for PS4 also will be backwards compatible on PS5.

Simply put, Sony is saying that “Marvel’s Spider-Man” and “Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition” are essentially two games. Although the latter includes a remake of the former, it is still not upgradeable. “Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales”, is one of the first PS5 games that will arrive on November 12.
