Alright everyone, it's time to grab a few grains of salt, and then neglect them and get hyped anyway. This morning a Swedish online retailer by the name of CoolShop has listed Spider-Man PS4 with a release date of September 28, 2018. This came out of the blue, and as far as we can tell the site is perfectly legitimate. But what about the date? Does September 28 sound like a placeholder date? Not exactly.

Typically placeholder dates are either the last day of the year, or the last day of the season that a game is supposed to launch. Let's say that Game-X is supposed to launch in the spring of 2018. A placeholder date for Game-X might be June 21, since that's the last day of spring. In this case, September 28 is neither the last day of the year (obviously), nor the last day of a season. Summer will end on September 22 this year. The supposed release date also falls on a Friday, which would make perfect since. Games typically launch on Tuesdays and Fridays in the U.S.
