When can you preload Marvel’s Spider-Man 2?

Look out, here come the Spider-Men!

It’s almost time! Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is just around the corner and fans are craving to get their hands on the highly-anticipated title. As the newest in the series, the game lets you control two Spider-Men: Peter Parker and Miles Morales. Plus, new villains are set to appear, including fan-favorites Kraven the Hunter and Venom. Marketing for the game has been huge, as this is PlayStation’s last big title for the year. And, if it’s anything like the first two games, we are in for a marvelous treat. While the game is scheduled to release on October 20, you can pre-load the game, so you can get your spidey-fix as soon as it launches.
