About the Game

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is an action game released as a tie-in with the movie of the same name. It takes place outside the events of the film with a separate storyline where Spider-Man discovers a larger threat to NYC that has turned the underworld upside down, weaving together villains from the film and classic Marvel characters. The game opens with Spider-Man tracking down his uncle Ben's killer in order to bring him to justice. However, he soon finds that there is much more going on in the city of Manhattan and finds himself in a tangled web between Oscorp, Wilson Fisk and a mysterious new serial killer.

Story & Setting

Other types of activities include photo investigations, task force, aiding the police in a deadlock, rescue situations and infiltrating hideouts.

Gameplay & Core Systems

The web is controlled with Spider-Man's left and right hand with two separate buttons. Different enemies need to be taken out with combat techniques and various upgrades can be earned throughout the game. Similar to the inFAMOUS series there is a morale system where players can choose to have Spider-Man intervene to stop crime or to ignore it. The existing crimes have been expanded with new types such as arson and hostage situations. Through the open-world design there are often multiple approaches, including stealth.
