Fans were later questioning whether the game is an expansion of <strong><em>Marvel&#8217;s Spider-Man<\/em><\/strong> or its own standalone game, but thankfully Insomniac Games swung in and set the record straight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier today, Insomniac Games took to Twitter to clear up any confusion about what the upcoming PS5 game is. Below you can see their tweet:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Marvel&#39;s Spider-Man: Miles Morales is the next adventure in the Marvel&#39;s Spider-Man universe.

It wasn&#8217;t a sequel but rather a very specific spin-off and the same applies to this game. This isn&#8217;t the first time something like this has happened, and it won&#8217;t be the last.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While talking to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.siliconera.com\/marvels-spider-man-miles-morales-is-an-expansion-and-upgraded-version-of-the-original-title\/\">The Telegraph<\/a>, <strong>Simon Rutter<\/strong>, Sony Interactive Entertainment head of European Business, made this comment while talking about the upcoming game: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-large is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;I guess you could call it an expansion and an enhancement to the previous game.
