It hasn't even been a full year since Insomniac released Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on PlayStation 5, but leaks for a potential Marvel's Spider-Man 3 title have allegedly surfaced. These leaks reportedly come from the expansive Insomniac leak that occurred in December. That leak was the result of a ransomware group hacking Insomniac and unleashing 1.6 terabytes of development plans, employee data and more. Among those files was key information on Insomniac's Wolverine game, including plot details and gameplay, as well as future projects through 2032.

Now, it appears that an early build of a potential Spider-Man 3 is now part of that information dump. The build allegedly comes from the same group of modders that took a Spider-Man 2 dev build and ported it over to PC. That build made the entire Spider-Man 2 game, which is currently exclusive to PS5, playable on a PC.

Taking to Twitter, two screenshots of an alleged Spider-Man 3 build were posted on Friday. The two screenshots showcase what appears to be Cindy Moon's Silk swinging through Central Park. The character's costume lines up with Silk's real-life comic book outfit, though it's impossible to say if this is simply a mod or an actual build.

Silk Was Teased At The End Of Spider-Man 2
The presence of Silk in a potential Spider-Man 3 isn't all too shocking given the events of Spider-Man 2. Those who played Spider-Man 2 might remember that during the ending sequence, Rio Morales, Miles' mother, invited her new boyfriend to dinner. Her boyfriend, Albert Moon, knocks on the door and introduces himself to the family along with his daughter Cindy. Her face isn't explicitly shown, though it is clear that she is Cindy Moon as the scene fades.



Moon, like Miles and Peter, also has spider abilities, like the ability to wall crawl, super strength and a version of the spider sense. She is differentiated by her ability to organically produce webs, while both Peter and Miles produce webs via artificial means. As to her role in Insomniac's universe, it remains to be seen.

Based on previous unearthed information from the Insomniac leaks, the studio was working on a multiplayer game set within the Spider-Man universe. That title was called Spider-Man: The Great Web, and it was seemingly based on the Spider-Verse -- the large-scale universe that houses multiple Spider-Man variants, like Spider-Gwen. The game was canceled, though it was clear that Insomniac was working on the framework for its own in-universe version of the popular Spider-Verse.

In other words, Moon represents a step in that direction. The group promises more information in "due time," so fans will have to wait a bit longer to see how she plays and any other additional information. That said, should this leak be true, it is an impressive costume that fits within Insomniac's world.
