Spider-Man: Miles Morales UK Sales Boosted by PS5 Restock

Spider-Man: Miles Morales has enjoyed a great deal of success since it first launched last year, garnering numerous awards and nominations, as well as being one of the most popular PS5 launch titles. Despite being out for numerous months now, the sales of Spider-Man: Miles Morales have recently gone up in the UK.

As is the case all around the world, PS5 stock has gone in and out since the console first released, with no signs of stopping. Considering how high the demand is for the PS5, whenever the console gets restocked, an influx of PS5 games tend to get purchased, as well. This proved to be true when UK retailers recently restocked the PS5 and sales of Spider-Man: Miles Morales got boosted.

According to GamesIndustry.biz, Spider-Man: Miles Morales jumped from ninth place to third place in the boxed chart sales for games sold the week of May 15 in the UK, compared to the week before. It managed to surpass the recently released Subnautica: Below Zero and FIFA 21, which has performed favorably in UK sales for some time now.

Despite being out for several months, Spider-Man: Miles Morales is still one of the most desirable PS5 launch titles. Many fans consider the game to be as solid as its predecessor and opens the door for additional games in the series. Although, the attention that Spider-Man: Miles Morales has received from the gaming community might mean great things for Insomniac Games in the future.

If there's one thing that many Sony fans appreciate about PlayStation as a platform, it's the console's exclusive series. For the last several years now, Insomniac Games has provided numerous memorable and high-selling Sony exclusive games. This could mean that even more ambitious games may come from the studio. With the release of games like Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, this could lead to Insomniac being in charge of numerous, powerhouse franchises.

As for the Spider-Man series, the success that Spider-Man: Miles Morales has enjoyed has led to many fans wondering when the next mainline entry will release. There have many rumors about Spider-Man 2 releasing soon, practically all of which have proven to be false. However, considering the impressive amount of speculation surrounding a presumed sequel, there's obviously a high demand for more Spider-Man games. Hopefully, in the years to come, both Sony and Insomniac will be willing to deliver what the fans want.

Spider-Man: Miles Morales has a platinum trophy for the PS4 version and the PS5 version. One of the trophies that players will need to obtain in order to 100% the game is called "Best Fries in Town" and can be hard to get if Miles Morales fans don't know where to look. The trophy description reads: "Pay respects to a legend in the Upper West Side." This legend just happens to be Stan Lee, a staple in Marvel's history who passed away a few years ago, unfortunately. He has a statue somewhere in NYC and this guide will help players find it for themselves to nab that sweet trophy.
