Spider-Man 2 and Super Mario Bros. Wonder are releasing in the month of October bringing nostalgia for video game fans. This is month is witnessing release of a number of top-notch and popular games. No doubt both Spider-Man 2 and Super Mario Bros. Wonder will become instant hit with the enthusiasts.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will release on PS5 on October 20. Marvel's Spider-Man was released initially more than five years ago. The video game still remains the epitome of an open-world superhero gaming experience. Insomniac Games is now set to raise the bar with Marvel's Spider-Man 2. In this installment, Insomniac ventures into the Venom storyline, allowing players to embody the alien symbiote costume and seamlessly switch between Peter Parker and Miles Morales.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder will release on Nintendo Switch on October 20.


Mario is back to his classic side-scrolling adventures in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, marking his first entirely new 2D platformer in more than a decade. While the New Super Mario Bros. series had a reputation for feeling somewhat monotonous, Nintendo has infused this game with an array of zany elements, including an elephant power-up for Mario and "Wonder Flowers" that will whimsically remix stages in unpredictable ways.

The month of October is also witnessing major development in the gaming industry. Microsoft was aiming to close its $69 billion deal for "Call of Duty" publisher Activision Blizzard on Oct. 13 if it gets approval from Britain's antitrust regulator, the Verge reported last week. The Xbox maker had in July extended the cutoff date for the deal to Oct. 18 to get more time to secure approval from the UK.

Microsoft declined to comment, while Activision did not respond to a Reuters request for comment. Microsoft won preliminary approval from the Competition and Markets Authority last month after Activision agreed to sell its streaming rights to Ubisoft Entertainment, as per a Reuters report.

If successful the purchase would mark the biggest deal in the gaming industry, bringing together Microsoft's heft in the console market with Activision's titles including "Call of Duty" and "World of Warcraft", Reuters reported.
