For everyone still here, let’s talk about a cool glitch involving Venom that has been removed from the game in its latest patch.

Released in October, Spider-Man 2 on PS5 is a fantastic open-world superhero game that lets you play as both Miles Morales and Peter Parker, each of them Spider-Men but with unique powers and abilities. But the game also has a few cool moments in which you can play as someone other than Spider-Man. In one memorable mission players could—briefly—take on the role of Venom himself. While developer Insomniac designed this segment to be a limited, short part of the game, players were able to figure out a glitch that could break Venom out of that one mission, letting you explore all of New York City as the big gooey symbiote. But a new patch has killed that fun glitch.

As spotted by IGN, Spider-Man 2’s 1.001.005 patch—which went live on November 8—fixes a few problems and bugs in the open-world game. But notably for fans of Venom shenanigans, it also patched out the ability to free the villain from his mission. However, Insomniac had a good reason to remove this glitch. According to some players, pulling off the Venom glitch could corrupt your save permanently, making it impossible for you to progress in the game’s story missions. So to protect players from accidentally destroying their saves, Insomniac has removed the fun exploit.

Of course, while some players understand why this was done, others are still sad to see the glitch removed as watching Venom run about the open world of Spider-Man 2 is a treat. And considering how cool that Venom mission is and how popular a character the symbiote has become in recent years, it’s not surprising that players want more Venom action. And perhaps that will happen, as Insomniac seems open to creating a spin-off game starring Venom.

I only hope that the spin-off involves a segment where you play as Spider-Man and fans figure out a way to break the game so you can play as the famous web shooter outside of that one moment.
