You can now get Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered as a standalone purchase on PS5. Previously, the game was only available as a bundle with Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales on Sony's new console, but now you can get it by itself if you want.

What's new in Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered?

This version of 2018's Marvel's Spider-Man collects the base game plus all three DLC story chapters released under the Spider-Man: The City That Never Sleeps banner. Of course, you're also getting a 4K 60fps performance mode, as well as faster loading thanks to the PS5's SSD. You'll also notice new DualSense adaptive trigger and haptic feedback functionality when you're using Spider-Man's gadgets and shooting webs to get around the city. Finally, Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered also takes advantage of Tempest 3D AudioTech if you've got headphones that support it, leading to a more immersive audio experience.

In a recent update, Spider-Man Remastered also got a new performance graphics mode that also supports ray tracing. This brings it in line with Miles Morales, which received the same update a few days ago. In essence, the mode adds ray tracing capabilities to the standard 60fps graphics mode. It achieves this by making reductions in other areas like crowd density, reflection quality, and resolution.

This means the game now has three different visual modes to choose from. Fidelity offers the best visual experience available but at a cost to frame rate. Performance raises the frame rate to 60fps but lowers visual quality, and Performance RT adds ray tracing to the Performance mode, while lowering some other settings. You can select whichever one of these modes you prefer to play on from the game's settings menu.

Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered is available right now from the PlayStation Store for $39.99. Alternately, you'll also get the game as part of the Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition bundle, which will set you back $69.99.
