It's unclear whether Insomniac's Spider-Man and Wolverine games take place in the same universe. From the trailer we've seen so far, Venom will also play a big role. Where exactly Spider-Man 2 begins is unclear, but it will take place after the events of both games. Insomniac's version of the Tinkerer, who is an old friend of Miles from their childhood, ends up sacrificing herself so that Miles can unleash the power he absorbed a safe distance away from people. Miles finds out that the 'sustainable' energy source used by the Roxxon Corporation isn't so sustainable, and it actually has enough power to destroy the entire city. Spider-Man: Miles Morales was a spin-off that starred the titular character saving his home of Harlem when Peter is away in a foreign country doing work for the Daily Bugle. The end of the game hinted towards the Green Goblin's involvement in future installments. While Peter finally manages to defeat him, he cannot prevent his Aunt May from succumbing to the virus.

The city eventually falls under threat from the Sinister Six (Mister Negative, Electro, Vulture, Rhino, Scorpion, and Doc Ock), who manage to hold off Spider-Man for long enough that Doc Ock can release a deadly virus across New York City.
