This article contains spoilers for the story of Insomniac’s Spider-Man 2.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 players have found yet another glitch that lets them patrol the streets of New York City as Venom - but it involves a certain amount of risk, so those looking to exploit the glitch should proceed with caution.
If you haven’t been keeping up with the community carnage that’s ensued since Insomniac Games’ sequel launched for PlayStation 5 last month, then you should know that a dedicated few have been working to find ways to play as Marvel’s iconic symbiote. They had succeeded before, but Insomniac was quick to patch the exploit. Now, someone has discovered a new way to take the Lethal Protector outside of the limited arena players are given a little more than halfway through the campaign.
Reddit user UnderTheHood778 shared footage of them controlling Venom as he jumps over and around the city’s skyscrapers. This new version of the Venom glitch actually offers a bit more than previous exploits, as it allows players to use symbiote abilities to fight crime.
However, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s new Venom glitch is tricky to pull off. In fact, UnderTheHood778 explains that Venom wannabes will need to crash their game during a specific story moment.
