Sony has showcased what PS5 box art will look like, with the reveal of the Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales box art ahead of its launch later this year.
Check out the box art, which sports a white top bar with the PS5 logo, as opposed to the blue top bar of PS4 box art.

Sony showed off the new design with arguably one of the PS5’s biggest games in its launch window — Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales. This game’s box art will include Miles in his Spider-Man suit, alongside a bit of webbing and hints at his unique powers in comparison to Peter Park’s Spider-Man.
The art also reveals what appears to be the new standard for PS5 boxes — the white top bar, while a stark, bright contrast from the blue trim of PS4 boxes, is very clearly in theme with the initial design of the PS5 and the PS5’s new controller, the DualSense. The case itself, however, appears to retain the blue, translucent design of this generation’s box art.

The side panels of the PS5, as seen in its initial reveal, sport a bright white color, while the DualSense itself is also primarily white.
It’s also worth noting that the “Only on PlayStation” phrasing found on PS4 exclusives is not included here. However, the PlayStation Studios logo, which is Sony’s new indicator for first-party produced and published games, is included on the artwork.
We recently learned some story details about Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and how it picks up Miles’ story where it left off in Marvel’s Spider-Man. After some confusion following its initial reveal, Insomniac Games confirmed Spider-Man: Miles Morales is a standalone adventure.
