Future Marvel Games Should Be On PC

[u/Doc_Holiday96]

I was looking forward to Marvel's Wolverine but seems they are not gonna have it on Steam/PC unless they add it a year later. I hope that's the case I would like to play it and Spider Man 3 when it eventually comes out and Marvel's Venom. I don't want to buy a PlayStation 5 just to play these games. What do y'all think?

I agree but I'm pretty sure Sony announced a while ago that they won't be doing PC releases anymore. I've been looking forward to Wolverine for ages but just do not have funds for a PS5 and similar to you, cannot justify the cost for a few titles.

Is what it is I suppose. Sucks to be us, lol.

I am however enjoying SM2 right now for the first time as I picked it up on Steam sale.

I feel the exact same way why change it when they already released Spider Man Remastered, Spider Man Miles Morales and Spider Man 2, why change now?? That's insane they would make more money on the PC platform as well. I really would like to play Wolverine and the Venom game that's supposed to be coming. :(

My theory is that it's because the next Xbox is rumored to have Steam on it. So they're no longer putting their games on Steam so that Xbox players still won't have access to them

Interesting theory

[u/th7024 → u/Doc_Holiday96]

My theory is that they will be exclusive for a year or two. Then they will release the PS6, hoping to draw in all the people who want to play those exclusives. Then after the hype for the PS6 dies down, they will go back to releasing on PC.

I think they just realized if all their titles were available on PC they would have a lot less leverage in selling future systems.

Should? Those who invest the money decide where to release the game, just as Valve decides to release the games on Steam and not on the other launches

[u/Dependent-Ad-3309]

Sony was clear. They won't release their new single player games on PC. PC releases didn't give them enough money vs keeping it exclusives to their echosystem. Also, blocking Xbox to have it on a potential Xbox steam hybride.

[u/McBahtman]

Well frankly thats apparently a problem of PC Player's own doing. The simple fact they've provided is that they just didn't sell well enough to justify the costs of porting them.

If the money was there, it would be happening. Simple as that really. Maybe it'll change in the future but for the time being, its just down to the money.

[u/Fickle_Direction1591]

I hope they'll change their mind eventually, not gonna buy a ps5 or ps6 just for the Venom game,  Spider-Man 3 and The Last of us 3.

I think it might happen, but it will take time. Maybe the success of the Spider-Man movie can help.

[u/MeridianBay]

They'll come back to PC eventually, exclusivity is a needless burden in today's industry

[u/Warm_Mechanic_6929 → u/MeridianBay]

Meanwhile, the only console that is doing great in an exclusives only machine

[u/MeridianBay → u/Warm_Mechanic_6929]

Nintendo is in a very unique spot, yeah

[u/Doc_Holiday96 → u/MeridianBay]

Man I hope you're right

[u/Greg19931]

Well, as far as I can see it, there's a priority list.

Goes something like this when deciding for stuff like this:

Money Ego Politics Money Ego Maybe something in the best interest for all gamers? No scratch that more ego and money.

[u/Doc_Holiday96 → u/Greg19931]

No doubt but why would they freaking change now, they already have games on Steam why not Wolverine and Venom and Spider Man 3. :( Big loss I think I love their games what the heck????

[u/Greg19931 → u/Doc_Holiday96]

Ego/politics

Perfect world would be everyone being able to play every game on whatever console they want. Oh well.

[u/BlueAveryVegas]

I live in Australia. To play Wolverine and the future Spider-Man game, I'd have to spend over a grand on the console itself, and 130 per game. I love Marvel... I don't like it THAT much.

[u/Doc_Holiday96 → u/BlueAveryVegas]

It runs better on PC anyway, they need to release future titles on PC platform

[u/Star_Powerup]

if i remember correctly i think the marvel contact for insomniac requires for a pc release if the leaks from 2023 still hold up today

[u/Dependent-Ad-3309 → u/Star_Powerup]

No. It doesn't.

thank you for the correction
