Spider-Man on PS4 is available to buy now. So, you’re probably looking for the best prices on Spider-Man, searching for a good deal, and maybe trying to find some of those limited editions (warning, people are selling them for INSANO prices – some joker is trying to flog one in the UK for £1,490 (opens in new tab)). Heck, maybe you’re even still looking for one of those LOVELY Spider-Man PS4 Pro consoles, which seemed to sell out in seconds. After all, the game has been widely hailed as another masterpiece for PS4, and continues Sony’s run of excellent PS4 exclusive games in 2018.
Our expert reviewer, Leon Hurley, finished the game to 100% and has concluded that it’s “as good as superhero gaming gets”, which is high praise. Our Spider-Man review (opens in new tab) awarded the game 4.5 out of 5, praising the excellent freedom of movement, the movie-like story, and the wealth of things to do. If you’re looking for value for money, this game will probably take you about 35-40 hours to grab the Platinum Trophy, with the main story clocking in at around 20-25 hours. That’s probably about the same as Sony’s other 2018 epic, God of War (opens in new tab). Below are the best prices for the standard edition, which you can buy RIGHT NOW. We will update this feature if the Limited Edition consoles and Collector’s Editions come back into stock.

Spider-Man PS4 Limited Edition PS4 Pro Console

The pad is styled too, in red and white. You get a 1TB (standard) HDD, and you can pick it up for the same price as a normal Pro. So everyone’s a winner.
