Previously Beenox revealed that Kraven the Hunter would be one of the many characters from the Spider-Man canon that would appear in their upcoming The Amazing Spider-Man 2 game, but a new trailer has revealed several more, some of whom we’ll see in the new film and some not. Featuring the likes of Electro, The Green Goblin, Black Cat and Kingpin, you can check out the trailer in the player below!
In The Amazing Spider-Man 2, players once again assume the role of the iconic Super Hero in a unique side-story inspired by the feature film but set in its own continuity. Throughout his journey, Spider-Man will encounter a number of new foes as well as some old friends, as he confronts a new threat to his beloved city. The narrative will give Peter Parker, Spider-Man’s nerdy photojournalist persona, a greater role in the spotlight, as he investigates the complicated motivations and unique personalities behind the menagerie of Marvel menaces threatening Manhattan.
As Spidey, players will be able to free-roam through a greatly-enhanced Manhattan cityscape, one set to offer livelier, more engaging opportunities with which to put his sensational skills to use. Central to the expansive depth and detail being poured into The Amazing Spider-Man 2 video game is the new “Hero or Menace” system, which incentivizes Super Hero behavior by rewarding the web-slinger’s crime-fighting efforts, and adds consequences for letting criminality fester. Spider-Man’s personal brand of web-swinging and up-close-and-personal combat will see a variety of new features as well.
Developed by Beenox, the makers of the hit 2012 game The Amazing Spider-Man, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 video game will be available for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, Wii U, PC, and 3DS on April 29.
