Marvel's Spider-Man received a number of accolades including being named as one of the best superhero games ever made.

Insomniac was given the choice of using any character from Marvel's catalog to work on Spider-Man was chosen both for his appeal to the employees and the similarities in traversal gameplay to their previous game Sunset Overdrive (2014). Combat focuses on chaining attacks together and using the environment and webs to incapacitate numerous foes while avoiding damage.ĭevelopment of Marvel's Spider-Man, the first licensed game by Insomniac in its then-22-year history, began in 2014 and took approximately four years. Outside the story, the player is able to complete side missions to unlock additional content and collectible items.

Gameplay is presented from the third-person perspective with a primary focus on Spider-Man's traversal and combat abilities.

When Mister Negative threatens to release a deadly virus, Spider-Man must confront him and protect the city while dealing with the personal problems of his civilian persona, Peter Parker. In the main story, the super-human crime lord Mister Negative orchestrates a plot to seize control of New York City's criminal underworld.
