Which studio developed Marvel's Spider-Man for PlayStation 4?

Insomniac Games developed Marvel's Spider-Man for PlayStation 4. Sony Interactive Entertainment published the game, but publishing and development were handled by different companies.

Development began in 2014 after Marvel and Sony moved away from Activision's Spider-Man game partnership. Insomniac chose Spider-Man from Marvel's character catalog, partly because the studio's earlier game Sunset Overdrive had already explored fast, fluid traversal across a city.

The game was released on September 7, 2018, after being announced at Sony's E3 2016 presentation. It introduced an original continuity, later identified as Earth-1048, rather than adapting a specific film or comic storyline.

A common mix-up is confusing Insomniac with Sony's other PlayStation studios, such as Naughty Dog or Sucker Punch. Insomniac also developed the follow-up Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Marvel's Spider-Man 2.
