Spider-Man: Brand New Day has been a blockbuster, capturing the world’s attention and stretching beyond the theatres. Recently, Insomniac’s Spider-Man games are witnessing a remarkable surge following the record-breaking success of the movie.
Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered has climbed the charts and now appears in the ‘most played’ section of Steam games. According to the Steam Database, Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered has reached a 24-hour peak of 15,731 concurrent players, and currently it has over 10,000 active players in the game.
Meanwhile, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 isn’t far behind. The PC version has climbed to a 24-hour peak of 11,590 concurrent players, with more than 8100 players online at the time of reporting.
