Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has been the talk of the town ever since its highly awaited launch on October 20. The sequel to 2018’s Marvel’s Spider-Man is being hailed for the phenomenal gameplay experience it has offered to the webheads along with some interesting innovations to the characters. Peter Parker’s romantic interest, Mary Jane aka MJ, being the biggest highlight of the new character twist, has left the fans thrilled. But what’s so special about MJ’s stealth missions in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2? 

The first game received strong criticism of the inclusion of MJ stealth missions. A lot of the criticism was subjected to the fact that MJ didn’t have much contribution to the gameplay besides just sneaking around. However, things seem to have changed in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and the fans are hailing this new “capable hero” as the last piece of the puzzle. Here’s what Insomniac’s Creative Director had to say about the MJ missions.

Not many comic book characters can steal the limelight away from the Peter Parker and Miles Morales. However, courtesy of Insomniac Games, MJ took on the challenge and left no stone unturned to impress players. Apparently, for some fans, this new version of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is nothing less than a John Wick masterclass. 

Bryan Intihar, the senior Creative Director of Insomniac Games, talking about the inclusion of MJ stealth missions for the sequel, gave some interesting insights. “We’re going to make her moments better. We’re going to take on the challenge. We’re going to make people like playing as her.’ We pick and choose our spots. We knew we had to make her more of a proactive, capable person. And if she’s a little OP, I don’t give a shit. She’s fine. I don’t care,” he stated during a recent interview.

The director also expressed how the team decided to make the changes during the development phase of the 2018 project. The part that couldn’t be implemented before had birthed the idea of MJ’s character having a stun gun and facing the enemies like a boss! 

The improvements in MJ’s combat skills and the contribution to the overall story

The evolution of the character of MJ has to be the most progressive in the series. The sequel doesn’t just portray her as someone who needs to be saved. Even in the first game, she was sneaking into dangerous places, knocking out enemies. But in this game, she went head on!!

In between the intense action scenes starring Miles Morales and Peter Parker, MJ’s covert operations provide you a little respite. As Spider-Man, you swing across buildings and turn Kraven’s hunts into hurricane drivers; as Mary Jane, you stealthily move about compounds, rendering criminals unconscious.

Undoubtedly, the new “capable hero” has won hearts around and fans would love to see more of MJ’s action in the next game as well.
