Spider-Man 2 came out on PC and was hacked within an hour

Spider-Man 2 hit the PC market through Steam and the Epic Games Store without any protective measures, making it impossible to hack before its official release. The absence of pre-order and pre-download options, combined with a hefty 140-gigabyte download size, contributed to this unique situation. Yet, within an hour of its launch, hackers managed to download and crack the game, revealing its lack of complex defense mechanisms.

Sony took a subtle approach to marketing the game, with system requirements being disclosed just a day before its PC release. Despite this, Spider-Man 2 has secured the seventh spot among Sony's top releases on Steam, trailing behind heavyweights like God of War, Horizon, and even Days Gone.

Initial player feedback has been underwhelming, with the game garnering only a 55% positive review rating from 1,280 reviews at the time of this post. Players have reported issues with optimization, frequent crashes, and various bugs.

In contrast, Spider-Man Remastered continues to dominate as the top performer in the series on PC, once boasting over 66,000 concurrent players. Whether Spider-Man 2 can come close to matching its predecessor's success remains to be seen over the upcoming Friday and weekend. If current sales trends hold, the game might still achieve a respectable outcome.
