We didn’t have to wait long for a message from Sony. The corporation has just confirmed the official result of Spider-Man 2. The Insomniac Games title enjoyed excellent results and is the fastest-selling game by PlayStation Studios.
Spider-Man 2 was released exclusively on PlayStation 5, which certainly limited sales opportunities, but we can be sure that Sony is not complaining. The title hit the market on Friday and is already celebrating its first success.
PlayStation confirmed the first official result of Spider-Man 2 – the game sold over 2.5 million copies in just 24 hours.
Great news, Spidey fans – Marvel’s #SpiderMan2PS5 sold over 2.5 million copies in the first 24 hours. Thank you for making this premiere a real success!

This is a truly brilliant result considering several circumstances – Spider-Man 2 was released exclusively on PlayStation 5, we witnessed several high-profile premieres in October, and it is a continuation of the series that will mainly appeal to fans of the universe and superhero adventures.
There have already been very positive results from the UK , but as you can see, Sony this time did not decide to wait a few extra days to announce the results.
It is worth recalling that God of War Ragnarok achieved sales of 5.1 million copies in a week and was the fastest-selling PlayStation Studios game so far. Here are the results for Sony’s games:
- God of War Ragnarok: 5.1 million (7 days),
- The Last of Us Part II: 4+ million (3 days),
- Spider-Man: 3.3 million (3 days),
- God of War 2018: 3.1 million (3 days),
- Spider-Man 2: +2.5 million (1 day).
