The game ends with Peter taking a break from being Spider-Man while Miles Morales’ adventures seem to continue. As a result, the ending implies that Peter’s tenure as Spider-Man might have ended.
In a recent interview withVariety,Yuri Lowenthal, who voices Peter Parker in the game, addressed the game’s ambiguous ending and what it means for his character’s future.
“While I think that Peter would love to believe that he can just turn it off and not be Spider-Man anymore and live a completely normal life, I don’t think that’s what’s going to happen now.”
Lowenthal made the above statement, hinting that Peter is bound to return for future games. While a third installment in the series is yet to be formally announced, it has beenrumoredto be in development. Lowenthal seemingly confirmed plans for the next game by stating the following:
“I don’t know — I haven’t read a script yet. They’re probably still working on it. But I don’t think that’s the last we’re gonna see Peter.”
