If you want to know how long is Marvel's Spider-Man 2, the time to beat it all depends on whether you're aiming for full completion or just a blast though the story. Whatever you're aiming for it probably isn't quite as long as you might expect by the standards of the average big budget open world game. I was a bit surprised by how fast I completed it, but for some that's not necessarily a bad thing. If you want to find out how long it takes to beat Marvel's Spider-Man 2, I can explain everything below!
How long to beat Spider-Man 2?
How long it takes to complete Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will depending on the playthrough you're aiming for, but breaks down like this:
- Just story: 12-15 hours
- Standard playthrough: 15-18 hours
- 100% completion: 24-28 hours
Marvel's Spider-Man 2 might be a shorter, snackier game than some were expecting, especially in a world of 50+ hours games. For a world with plenty of collectibles and side missions, like Spider-Man 2 Spider Bots and Spider-Man 2 Mysteriums, it's still easy to digest, with a lot of small things to do, rather than anything with a daunting scale to power through.
The game also has some replayability thanks to Spider-Man 2 new game plus currently, as once you beat it the first time you can unlock a new difficulty level, "Ultimate", allowing players to take their skills and abilities and apply them to a far more perilous level of challenge.
However, if you're just in it for the story and a bit of extra side stuff, maybe swinging around the city just vibing for a while, you'll probably be finished before the 20 hour mark. Admittedly, difficulty and player skill level does factor here - there's a few difficulty spikes here and there, and generally it is a little more challenging than the previous game, especially later game. But you can always adjust the difficulty in the settings to bring it to a level you're comfortable with.
