As usual, PlayStation has promised a great line-up of exclusive titles, which perhaps makes the PS5 more desirable than its competitor, the Xbox Series X. And from the looks of it, MMA and UFC superstar Israel Adesanya cannot wait to get swinging in Spider-Man: Miles Morales.

The Spider-Verse suit reveal video shows similar editing. It feels like the movie all over again, but with the player being in control of the movement. No wonder Izzy is already drooling over the game’s gameplay.

Talking specifically about the web-swinging, it is also heavily inspired by the Spider-Verse movie. The movement, the acrobatics, the actual swinging, and the dips and turns that Miles does mid-air are just mesmerizing to witness. Insomniac have clearly outdone themselves this time.

Naturally, Adesanya being impressed by this game is justified. Speaking about games, Adesanya also recently managed to break the ‘EA cover curse’ with his win over Paulo Costa. This may seem insignificant, but given the fact that Masvidal lost after featuring on the UFC 4 cover, it is definitely a great sign.

Spider-Man: Miles Morales is definitely going to have more such high-profile fans once it launches. The game releases on November 12 along with the PlayStation 5.
