The game is set on the web-slinger's crime-fighting exploits in New York City, which will be massive according to the developers. Back in July, Insomniac Games confirmed via a Twitter exchange that the NYC map is comparable to Sunset City. "That's not a comparison we can really make. It's several times larger than Sunset City was tho," responded Insomniac to a fan inquiry if the Spider-Man map will be bigger than "Witcher 3's."
Sunset City is the setting for one of the developer's most popular games. "Sunset Overdrive. " Destructoid reported that Insomniac enjoyed a lot of leeway to come up with a setting for the game that will exceed that of "Sunset Overdrive's." Furthermore, the NYC setting required a more authentic feel to the city, which had to feature some of its key landmarks, among others.

In addition, it will also bring "new combat and cinematic blockbuster set pieces," the game's official description added.
