Marvel's Venom, an Insomniac Games spin-off title, remains in active development for PlayStation despite lingering doubts about its status. The claim comes from leaker NatetheHate2, who has a track record of accurate industry predictions, and echoes earlier comments from Bloomberg journalist Jason Schreier, who dismissed cancellation rumours earlier in the year. Continued confirmation of the project matters because it reassures fans that one of the most anticipated titles teased in Insomniac's 2024 data leak has not been shelved, even as its release timeline has evidently shifted.

The Venom game first surfaced in the infamous Insomniac leak, where it appeared on an internal roadmap of upcoming projects. The source could not confirm when it might be officially announced, though speculation suggests it could launch as a cross-generation title spanning PS5 and PS6, similar to how Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales bridged PS4 and PS5. Sony's silence on the project is thought to reflect its current marketing focus on the imminent release of Marvel's Wolverine.
