Insomniac announces Spider-Man 2 controller, plates, and PS5 bundle

A set of Spider-Man 2 PS5 plates is rolling out soon, Insomniac announced, alongside a slick Spider-Man 2 DualSense controller and bundle

A set of Spider-Man 2 PS5 plates is rolling out soon, Insomniac announced, alongside a slick Spider-Man 2 DualSense. Both feature the Symbiote slowly absorbing the red-and-white Spider-Man icon on the PS5 console, and best of all, you can get them separately or all together in a bundle that includes console, covers, controller, and a digital copy of the game.

“The design was inspired by the in-game symbiote that’s taking over the console and controller, but you can still see some of the underlying red under the tendrils,” Insomniac senior art director Jacinda Chew said in a PlayStation Blog post. “This represents the various ways players will experience the symbiote takeover in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. It’s a constant push and pull for dominance whether it’s internal or external and the outcome is not certain.”

Pre-orders for the bundle and individual pieces go live on July 28, 2023, and you can get plates for the standard PS5 or the digital-only one.

Insomniac and Sony haven’t announced a price for any of these pieces yet. If previous bundles and accessory listings for limited-edition items, like the LeBron James controller, are anything to go by, you can probably expect something like this:

  • Plates: $64.99
  • DualSense: $79.99
  • Bundle: $559.99

The Symbiote plays a significant role in Spider-Man 2, and you can catch a glimpse of that role in the latest trailer for the upcoming Marvel game.

Spider-Man 2 launches for PS5 on Oct. 20, 2023.
