We know who would win in a real fight, (unless Mario found an invincibility star of course) but we’re actually talking about the fact that October 20th is going to be one of the biggest days for gamers in years.Super Mario Bros. WonderandMarvel’sSpider-Man 2both release on the same day, and those who own both aNintendo Switchand aPS5have a serious decision to make.
Both games are big-name exclusives with a lot riding on them.Super Mario Bros Wonderis the first 2D Mario title in a decade (excludingMario Maker) and could be the Switch’s swansong, with many believing anew Nintendo consolewill be released next year.Spider-Man 2however is the game thatSonywill be hoping finally showcases the true power of PS5. Both the originalSpider-ManandSpider-Man: Miles Moralesreleased on PS4 and PS5 but this latest web-slinging adventure is PS5 only.
As for picking which one to pick up, for many the answer will of course be both, but what about those on a budget? Perhaps it’s best to grab one and ask for the other as a Christmas present? With Call of Duty arriving on November 8th too, it’s clearly the busy season for gaming once again.

Back to our dilemma then, there could be a big deciding factor, multiplayer. Although Spider-Man 2 features two different Spidermen,there will be no co-op(boo) while Mario is, of course, inviting his friends to join his adventure (with up to 4 players local and online multiplayer). If you’re the kind who likes to save the world (or Mushroom Kingdom) alone, however, Spidey may be your best bet as all of the gameplay shown so far has the hallmarks of a generational title with mind-blowing graphics.
This is all providing of course you can drag yourself away fromStarfield,Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom LibertyandEA Sports FC 24of course. Phew. So many games, and so little time.
