The developers of hit PS5 exclusive Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 say Miles Morales is the "main" Spider-Man from now on, which has caused some fans to speculate about what Insomniac may do with the inevitable Spider-Man 3.

Being older I've really only known Parker as Spider-Man, don't even think I've watched any animated with Morales yet. The Miles Morales game kinda felt like a Gen-Z Parker to me, in the way they updated to a younger character but almost all of his dialogue felt like it could come from Parker though of course their personal situation and known people are different. I was a bit hesitant on the change at first (harder to take change sometimes heh) but at about halfway through Miles Morales game now I feel quite satisfied with how the cutscenes and story have played out, he feels like a good successor to the hero. I'm sure many people have had similar reactions over the years, especially between gold-silver age comic choices. I've always known multiple Flash characters (once I started watching more animated shows) so this isn't much different.
