Excitement speedily turned to confusion when Sony announced that a remastered version of Marvel'south Spider-Homo would be released for PS5 as part of the upcoming Marvel's Spider-Human being: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition . What should accept been a simple cause for celebration was complicated by questions regarding how this remaster would fit into the sometimes confusing world of next-gen upgrade options.

See, if you buy the recently confirmed PS4 version of Spider-Man: Miles Morales , yous can upgrade to the PS5 version of the game at no actress cost. Past that logic, some fans assumed that those who own the PS4 version of Marvel's Spider-Man would be able to upgrade to the PS5 remastered edition of that game at no actress price.

Nevertheless, it turns out that's admittedly not the case. Well…at least that's most people'southward get-go read of a lengthy (and only vaguely helpful) statement that Sony sent to Kotaku regarding the upgrade options of both Marvel'southward Spider-Man and Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales . In what we hope is a somewhat helpful endeavour to make sense of this madness, here are a few of the things you demand to know about the relationship between these various versions of the game.

If you buy Marvel's Spider-Human being: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition for PS5 (which retails for $69.99), you gain admission to the PS5 edition of Miles Morales , Marvel'due south Spider-Man: Remastered , and diverse other digital bonuses included in the Ultimate Edition
If you buy the Launch Edition of Spider-Homo: Miles Morales for PS5 (which retails for $49.99), you lot will receive the PS5 edition of that game and will take the option of paying a $20 upgrade fee to access Marvel's Spider-Homo: Remastered and the other Ultimate Edition bonuses
If y'all purchase Spider-Man: Miles Morales for PS4, y'all will only be able to admission Marvel's Spider-Human being: Remastered if you upgrade to the PS5 Launch Edition of Miles Morales for gratis and then pay the aforementioned $20 upgrade fee.
If you own Marvel's Spider-Man for PS4, at that place is no straight way to upgrade your copy of the PS4 game to Marvel's Spider-Man: Remastered for PS5.
Sony does not currently plan to release Marvel'southward Spider-Man: Remastered as a standalone PS4 or PS5 game.
If you own the PS4 version of Marvel's Spider-Homo , you volition exist able to play that game on PS5 via the console's backward compatibility options. However, that astern-uniform version of the game will not feature any of the technical upgrades featured in the remaster.

Got all that? Adept. Now explain information technology to us.

In all seriousness, the basic idea here is that Marvel's Spider-Homo: Remastered is tied to Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition for PS5. There is currently no mode to play the remaster outside of accessing that edition of the game either past straight-up purchasing it or using some kind of upgrade path to gain access to it via another edition of the game.

The problem here, and so, isn't just that this upgrade system is confusing, but that much of the confusion stems from Sony refusing to brand Curiosity'south Spider-Human being: Remastered more accessible to those who own the base game on PS4 or those who only wish to purchase information technology outright. It'south possible they will change their mind on this subject and offer more expansive upgrade options as news of this policy spreads. At the moment, though, there'south been no indication that will be the case.
