Exciting developments are brewing in the Marvel gaming universe as industry sources suggest Insomniac Games might be preparing to officially announce their long-rumored Marvel's Venom project. According to reliable insiders, the reveal could happen during either Sony's anticipated September State of Play broadcast or December's prestigious Game Awards ceremony hosted by Geoff Keighley.

While fans continue waiting for updates on Marvel's Wolverine - announced back in 2021 but silent since - the gaming community is buzzing with speculation about this potential Venom-focused title. The beloved symbiote character, who played a major role in Marvel's Spider-Man 2, might be getting his own standalone adventure.

Though Insomniac Games has never officially confirmed development of a Venom game, substantial evidence emerged during a devastating December 2023 ransomware attack. The breach revealed not just plans for Marvel's Spider-Man 3, but also separate projects including a Venom spin-off, a new Ratchet & Clank installment, and an X-Men title. The stolen data suggested the Venom game was originally targeting a 2025 PS5 release, though the leak's aftermath may have significantly altered these plans.

Industry analyst Detective Seeds, known for accurate predictions, recently hinted at the possible announcement windows. However, fans remain cautiously optimistic, remembering how another leaked project - Spider-Man 2 DLC - was ultimately canceled without official acknowledgment from Insomniac.

Adding fuel to the speculation, the late Tony Todd - who brilliantly voiced Venom in Spider-Man 2 - had teased completing "two major projects" before his passing. While one was clearly Spider-Man 2, many believe the second could have been this rumored Venom game, especially considering Todd mentioned only 10% of his recorded lines were used in Spider-Man 2.
