Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales is an individual game and is not a DLC for nor a remastered version of Marvel’s Spider-Man (via Push Square).
Sony’s The Future of Gaming event began with a bang with the reveal of Miles Morales’ own game on the PlayStation 5. However, it wasn’t clear what Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales was. Was it an all-new game for the PlayStation 5? Was it a remaster of the 2018 game with a new story for Miles? Was it a DLC for the 2018 game which would be remastered for the PlayStation 5? Was this a standalone title for Miles Morales?
It is a standalone game

Well, days after the event, now we know for sure. Kind of like Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, it’s a spinoff for Marvel’s Spider-Man which will be playable on the PlayStation 5. Developer Insomniac Games iterated multiple times that the game isn’t an expansion to Peter Parker’s story, even though a Sony executive claimed that was the case. CEO Jim Ryan defended the announcement’s format, and said there was no muddying of the water around the game.
“I can safely say that we would not effectively lead the next-gen portion of the show with something that was either trivial or misleading,” he said to CNET in an interview. Well, Jim, there were a lot of people who felt they didn’t know what the game was. So. Yeah.
Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales will come to the PlayStation 5.
