When it comes to being a hero, swinging between buildings as Spider-Man may be your preference. Now, with Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered finally landing on PC in 2022 after being a PlayStation console exclusive since 2018, more players can swing. However, with more players jumping into the world, how does Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered hold up for accessibility now it’s on PC and how populated is its settings menu?
If you’re curious as to what we thought of the PC version of the game, you can read our Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered accessibility review here. If you’re wanting to find what you can expect to see in the Settings menu, then this is the post for you. Sony Interactive Entertainment also has an official post highlighting some key features.
It’s also worth remembering that the existence of an accessibility menu doesn’t mean that the game itself is accessible. Instead, this deep dive serves to show players what to expect from the menus in case there is anything they need or prefer to see.
All images and information displayed below are from the PC version and could be subject to change.
Start-Up
Those jumping into Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered for PC will be greeted with a difficulty window. This comes with various difficulty levels that also have bars that show a visual representation of that gameplay segment’s difficulty.
Following that, players can access the entire Settings menu area from a start-up screen before being sent to the main menu. This allows for first-time launching to set up the game as desired, which can help with jumping straight into the action without needing to make adjustments throughout the opening gameplay sequences.
