Marvel's Spider-Man didn't include the option to replay the story in New Game Plus mode when it first launched in 2018. But Insomniac wasn't lazing about in a hammock made of webbing, either. The developer launched the feature roughly six weeks after launch (https://www.destructoid.com/spider-man-ps4-just-got-new-game-and-more-trophies/). Is it coming to the sequel? Oh yes, and now we (roughly) know when: before the end of this year.
New Game Plus (NG+) won't be alone on missing release, as Spider-Man 2 is also getting updated with a mission replay feature too. This update flew a bit under our radar, but like any wily city pigeon, we eventually caught it. Within the replies to Insomniac's announcement of a game up on Twitter/X, the company's community director was hashing out what's coming to Spider-Man 2 post-launch. The director in question, James Stevenson, mentioned New Game Plus mode will release (https://x.com/JamesStevenson/status/1714615386732142967?s=20) for Spider-Man 2 "before [the] end of [the] year."

Will New Game Plus and mission replay release for Spider-Man 2 at the same time?
The bonus to the news is that the NG+ mode isn't coming to the game alone. Spider-Man 2 will get a mission replay feature, according to Stevenson. It's not confirmed that it'll arrive alongside New Game Plus, however. In a reply (https://x.com/JamesStevenson/status/1714334581355094275?s=20), Stevenson wrote that the team is "working on an update for those features," including NG+, "but they won't be in Day 1." He later clarifies when NG+ is expected to drop, but isn't specific about mission replay.

Either way, it should be exciting for Spider-Man 2 fans who dream of knocking out early-game bosses while fully kitted out. The NG+ update for the original game included two more trophies: 'One More Time' got awarded for playing the game again in NG+, and 'Power and Responsibility' was earned after beating the game in Ultimate difficulty. And yes, you could acquire the latter trophy in NG+.
Marvel's Spider-Man 2 launches on PlayStation 5 on October 20.
