Screen Rant’s Take: DLC isn’t necessary
The game is already fantastic
I believe that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Suffered from a case of overhype As many players expected the game to be significantly bigger than possible. As a product, I think it’s a fantastic time filled with many excellent superhero moments; The story may not have hit as hard as the original but that is usually the nature of sequels. DLC would have been a nice treat but I don’t think it was needed to “save” the experience.
