Marvel's Spider-Man is one of the PlayStation 4 best-selling games with over 13.2 million units sold through July 28, 2019.
Former Game Informer Senior Editor Imran Khan speaking on the Kinda Funny podcast revealed he has heard from sources that a sequel could launch as early as 2021, with it possibly being Sony's big 2021 holiday title for the PlayStation 5.
A sequel to the game would be one of the most highly anticipated titles coming to the PlayStation 5.

"As soon as", game came out in 2018, 2021 is a 3 year development cycle of a gameplay and engine already made. Games like that used to come out every 2 years. :P
Yep. Insomniac has always been good at pumping out sequels.
If they can't make it a launch title then yes a holiday 2021 would be a great time to release it.
Currently on my 2nd play-through. Still holds up extremely well. But I do think there are some improvements and additions that can be made. Like an expanded combat system, more side quests, and digging deeper into Spidey’s rogue gallery: Some returning ones like Shocker and Tombstone, ones that were planted in the first game like Wraith (she’s technically an antihero, but the potential for a Wraith storyline here is too good to see ass up in by view), and new ones like Mysterio, Green Goblin (obviously), Venom (and possibly Carnage), and Sandman.
Also: A playable Miles Morales/Spider-Man alongside Peter Parker.
The first game had some great mechanics, but lacked content and the boss battles were disappointing. I wonder which direction they'll take the sequel.
