Originally created by Insomniac Games, the Spider-Man experience on PC is being ported by Nixxes Software, a studio known for bringing many blockbuster titles to personal computers. Nixxes previously handled PC versions of well-known games such as Rise of the Tomb Raider, Marvel’s Avengers, and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, lending their expertise to ensure smooth keyboard and mouse control, optimized frame rates, and robust PC support.

According to the plan, Spider-Man: Remastered will launch on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store on August 12. The Miles Morales expansion, Spider-Man: Miles Morales, is anticipated to arrive on PC later, with a timing that mirrors the gradual rollout the franchise has followed on computer platforms. There is also anticipation that Spider-Man 2 will reach PC, though this is expected to occur after its PS5 release. These moves align with Sony’s broader strategy to extend its most popular IPs beyond console boundaries and to give PC players access to a wider portion of the Spider-Verse. (Sony, press materials)
