Insomniac's Latest Job Listing Hints at Early Production of Marvel's Spider-Man 3

A recently posted job listing at Insomniac Games suggests the studio is in the early stages of production on a new AAA title. Speculation immediately turned to Marvel's Spider-Man 3, given the immense success of its predecessors and the numerous plot threads left dangling in Spider-Man 2. While Insomniac has confirmed Spider-Man 3's development, details remain scarce.

Previous leaks, including a data breach shortly after Spider-Man 2's release, mentioned a future Insomniac Spider-Man title. These leaks also hinted at new character introductions in Spider-Man 3, though a release date remains years away.

The new job posting, seeking a Senior UX Researcher, specifically mentions working on a project already in early production at Insomniac's Burbank UX Lab for a three-month period. This aligns perfectly with the likely timeline for Spider-Man 3.

Considering other Insomniac projects, Marvel's Wolverine is reportedly far along in development, and rumors of a Venom-centric Spider-Man 2 spin-off, potentially releasing this year, suggest it's unlikely to be in such early production stages. A new Ratchet and Clank game, slated for a 2029 release according to some leaks, seems less probable given Insomniac's current Marvel focus.

Therefore, while not definitively confirmed, the evidence strongly suggests the job listing refers to Marvel's Spider-Man 3. This news is undeniably exciting for PlayStation fans, regardless of the specific project. The fact that Insomniac is already actively working on a new game is a positive sign for the future of PlayStation gaming.
