"Venom" origin

[Floymin]

I am still near the start (train depot). Does the game eventually explain how Miles got the so-called "Venom" powers? I didn't see anything in the previous game.

[Fifty Three]

Only explained as that the spider that bit him was different.

The spider that bit him in the game (Spider-Man 2018) was a spider that was engineered to replicate the spider that gave Peter Parker his powers.

The Venom ability and the other ability is a mutation that Peter never got.

Worth mentioning that Peter's spider gave him higher strength/agility as well as a far more robust spider sense. Not that that's really represented properly in-game...

In the comics at least, Miles has more abilities than Peter but they're pretty evenly matched because Peter's abilities are far stronger.

Because millennial spiders can cloak and control electricity. Silly question.

If you looked around the spider-room in the previous game you'd notice the spiders were engineered to produce bio-electricity as well have camouflage. So it was already well explained in the previous game you just had to interact with the environment instead of skipping past it all.

Yep, it's implied that as a result of the differences in the spider, Miles isn't quite as strong as Peter, and doesn't have quite as robust of a spider sense, but he does have the bioelectricity and camouflage. There are tradeoffs for everything.

There is reference in the previous game, but it's easily missable. I didn't notice until my 2nd or 3rd playthrough, but when you're in Norman's secret room as MJ she comments on one of the items in the room and says "bio-electricity and camoflauge, what the hell is Norman trying to create?" or something along those lines if you interact with the different items around the room (He's attempting to replicate Spider-Man's powers with the experiments, which he does.) That specific spider case is the one that she knocks over where she transports it to FEAST to bite Miles.

[Stormspark]

It's not that easily missable, except for people who rush and skip over stuff. You're clearly sent in there to explore that entire room.

Because his friend suggested naming his bio-electricity power, Venom.. because it is stingy.

[Cartoon Cat]

Has it been established in comics, tv or games as to whether Mile's invisibility/camouflage evades Peter's spider-sense like symbiote venom is able to?

Venom (the symbiote) is only able to do that because Peter's spider sense interprets Venom as being part of him due to their previous bond.

Miles is just a random dude as far as Peter's powers are concerned, and Pete's spider sense can absolutely pick up on invisible/cloaked enemies well enough for him to fight them unimpeded.

[Stormspark]

Keep in mind, that Venom (the symbiote) has not yet been properly introduced in this continuity. Yes, there is something that looks like Venom in the stinger, but only Norman has seen that. Peter, MJ, Miles, and Genke aren't even aware of its existence, so Miles' powers being named Venom are completely separate from that.

It's possible they could still tie them together, after all the spider that bit Miles was deliberately engineered by Norman to try to re-create Spider-man's powers, with a little extra. And the symbiote in the tank with Harry was (apparently) also created by Norman. So maybe there is a yet-unknown connection (after all, it wasn't ever stated how the bioelectricity and camouflage was engineered into the spider that bit Miles).
