Spider-Man 3 Villain Leaked

This article has SPOILERS for the Insomniac Spider-Man games

Conceptual artwork for the villain of Marvel’s Spider-Man 3 has been leaked, all but confirming that the infamous Green Goblin will finally appear.

He ultimately doesn’t don the Goblin persona in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, but at the very end of the game he calls for a “G-Serum” to be prepared for him after Harry is put into a coma — implying that he will indeed become the Goblin and seek revenge in Spider-Man 3.

A recent leak has seemingly confirmed the main villain of Marvel’s Spider-Man 3 with an image of what the Green Goblin will look like. Reddit user KekanKok shared an image on r/GamingLeaks and Rumors, and it appears to be from a presentation by Insomniac meant to secure the license and funding for the next game in the series. Included in said presentation is concept art for Spider-Man 3's often-teased Green Goblin, which portrays the villain as a green-skinned humanoid wearing a purple-and-black sleeveless hooded coat, various straps and pounces, and boots with hoof-like toes.

Information about Marvel’s Spider-Man 3 is scarce, but a few key details were leaked during the massive ransomware attack on Insomniac back in December. According to the information exposed in the breach, Spider-Man 3 will reportedly launch
