Explaining the Spiderman 2 Ending

The conclusion of Spider-Man 2 features a number of significant story points, including the reappearance of Carnage and the Sinister Six, Cindy Moon's entrance, the ascension of the Green Goblin, and Peter Parker's temporary retirement. The fact that Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, the sequel to the first game, would follow Miles' tale rather than Marvel's Spider-Man 3 is also explained by Peter Parker's temporary retirement.The scene that follows the credits ends, the scene that occurs during the mid-credits, and the scene that occurs after the credits end.

  • Harry Osborn is saved from Venom, but he falls into a coma. His father, Norman Osborn, calls his team to get “G-serum” ready, a substance synonymous with the infamous Goblin Formula used by Norman Osborn in comics and live-action adaptations to transform into the Green Goblin.
  • Mary Jane Watson decides to move with Peter to a new home, beginning a fresh chapter in their relationship. She also quits her job at the Daily Bugle, boldly stepping towards a career as a podcaster.
  • Peter Parker dedicates his efforts to restoring the Emily-May Foundation, Harry’s charity dedicated to helping and ‘healing’ the people in need.
  • Peter Parker and Mary Jane decide to focus on their life together, prompting Peter to retire his mantle as Spider-Man temporarily.
  • With Peter temporarily stepping back from the role, Miles Morales becomes New York City’s sole Spider-Man.

  • Norman Osborn, deeply affected by his son’s current state, visits Otto Octavius in super-maximum security prison, The Raft. Osborn seeks out Octavius to demand the secret identities of the Spider-Men, as he holds them responsible for Harry’s condition. After enjoying Osborn’s pain, Octavius tells Osborn he is writing the final chapter.

Spiderman 2 Post-Credits Scene

  • Miles and Rio were preparing dinner when Hailey arrived. As they are in Miles’ room, they share a passionate kiss. But their intimate moment was interrupted by a knock on the door. Rio opened it to find her boyfriend, Albert Moon, and his daughter, Cindy Moon, standing there. Cindy waved back as the scene faded to black.

Although Cindy Moon is a new character in the Marvel Spider-Man video game world, comic book fans are already fond of her. Similar spider abilities were acquired by Cindy in the comics when she was bitten by the same radioactive spider that bit Peter Parker. But Ezekiel Sims, Cindy's instructor, kept her concealed for years in order to shield her from an enigmatic menace (Morlun).Cindy Moon is initially introduced to us in Spider-Man 2's post-credits sequence. She is presented as Miles' mother's new boyfriend's daughter. This suggests that in future games, Cindy will transform into the superhero Silk.

The Emily-May Foundation

A "residential loan application" in the names of Mary Jane Watson and Peter Parker is shown to us in the first ending sequence. This is the first indication that Peter and MJ are prepared to have a family.

The Green Goblin's ascent

The renowned Spider-Man antagonist, the Green Goblin, is hinted to be making a comeback in Spider-Man 2's epilogue. In the game, it is revealed that Norman Osborn's crew finished the G-serum because of his son's illness. Harry may possibly turn into the Green Goblin, but he was thinking of what we saw in the clip after the credits, which showed that Norman would turn into the Green Goblin.The Green Goblin will become stronger and more deadly than any foe Spiman-Man has ever encountered. When he teams up with Otto Octavius, it will be up to Miles Morales and Peter Parker to stop him from launching a broad, enormous attack.

Miles Morales Sequel to Spider-Man Most Likely Released Before Spider-Man 3

Insomniac Games expressed their desire to create additional Miles Morales games in an interview. This implies that Spider-Man: Miles Morales' sequel is something Insomniac is thinking about creating. Naturally, a sequel to Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales before Marvel's Spider-Man 3 is not a given. Nonetheless, the following explanations might explain why a Miles Morales 2 film would arrive before Spider-Man 3:
  • To give Miles more time to develop as a character. Miles is still a relatively new character, even though he’s been around for over a decade. A sequel to his game could give him more time to develop as a character, both personally and superheroically.
  • To explore new ideas and stories. A Miles Morales sequel could allow Insomniac to explore new ideas and story elements they couldn’t tell in a Spider-Man 2 game. This could include introducing new villains, exploring more on villains like Chemeleon, or even venturing into the multiverse as teased in Spider-Man 2.
  • To build excitement for Spider-Man 3. A Miles Morales sequel could help to build excitement for Spider-Man 3 by introducing new characters and storylines that will be continued in the third game. This could also help to keep fans engaged in the Spider-Man franchise between the release of Spider-Man 2 and Spider-Man 3.
Insomniac Games and Sony Interactive Entertainment will ultimately decide whether or not a Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales sequel releases before Marvel's Spider-Man 3. Nonetheless, the above mentioned factors imply that it is conceivable.That concludes our explanation of the Spider-Man 2 conclusion.
