Players who purchased physical copies of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 for the PlayStation 5 are encountering frustrating installation errors. Numerous users have reported that the game gets stuck at 36% during the installation process, rendering it unplayable.
This issue seems to be widespread, affecting players in various countries and from different retailers. It is not limited to a specific region or store. Many players have taken to Reddit to express their disappointment and seek solutions.
Several retailers have acknowledged the problem and have received numerous complaints. One retailer even reached out to Sony, who confirmed awareness of the issue and mentioned that a patch would be released soon to address it. However, it remains unclear how a patch could resolve an issue with the physical version of the game.
Despite the significant number of affected players worldwide, Sony has not made any public statements regarding the installation errors. This lack of communication has left fans feeling frustrated and uncertain about when they will be able to enjoy the highly anticipated Spider-Man 2.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 was released on October 20 and has received critical acclaim, boasting a current Metacritic score of 91. Players who are unable to install the game may need to consider seeking a refund for their purchase until the issue is resolved.
