Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Unable to Load Save Game Issue: Is there any fix yet
Unfortunately, we haven’t gotten word from Insomniac regarding this issue, so expecting an official fix for this issue is of no use. However, you can try the following workarounds to get rid of it.
Restart –
Well, first of all, we recommend that you perform a restart of the game and the console itself before moving on to other workarounds. While a simple method, it’s a really common way of fixing a myriad of issues. So, try this first, and if the issue persists, try another workaround.
Start a new run –
If the previous fix doesn’t net any meaningful results, we suggest that you start a new run. After a while, save the progress, and then try loading the previous save.
Delete game data –
The problem here could be that your saved games have somehow gotten corrupted. In such cases, the only option is to delete the game data. Now, since the PS5 doesn’t allow you to delete individual save files, you will have to get rid of the entire save data of the game. To do so, follow the given steps:
- Go to the Home Screen of your PS5, and select Settings.
- Now, scroll down below and click on Save Data and Game/App Settings > Saved Data (PS5) > Console Storage.
- It might take some seconds to load Console Storage so don’t worry if it takes too long. Once it’s loaded, switch to the Delete tab.
- After a while, the console will load all of your saved data. Now, you need to select or checkmark Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 from the list and click on the Delete button on the right side.
- Once the data is deleted, launch the game, and check whether you can start a new journey.
Update SM2 –
Players can also try updating the game, in case they haven’t done so before. Issues like this are mostly fixed with the release of a new update, so if an update is available for SM2, make sure to install it.
Reinstall the game –
Sometimes the only option to deal with an issue is to simply redownload the entire app or game. And if so far you haven’t been able to fix the issue, then it’s time you reinstall the game. Just don’t forget to save your progress before you proceed with the reinstallation.
Well, we hope that at least one of these workarounds was helpful. And in case you happen to be having a lot of trouble defeating Scream in the game, check out our detailed guide on the same.
