About

Released in 2002 for PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCube, and PC, this action platformer developed by Treyarch follows the events of the Spider-Man film while expanding its roster of antagonists to include villains such as the Shocker and the Vulture. Players control Spider-Man across a series of successive levels, using hand-to-hand combat and web-based attacks to defeat waves of thugs and protect targets from various threats before confronting each section's boss. The structure alternates between close-quarters combat in enclosed environments and open aerial sequences set across New York City, where web-swinging is the primary mode of traversal. The game blends movie-based narrative with additional comic-influenced content, offering a mix of brawling and mobility-focused gameplay across its progression.

Storyline

Spider bites can sometimes turn you into a superhero, as in the case of Peter Parker in Spider-Man: The Movie. Assume the role of Peter, a good-hearted teenager bitten by a genetically engineered spider, which gives him muscles, incredible strength, and spider-like abilities. You’ll have to learn how to control your powers including Spider Sense, web-slinging, and wall crawling, and the all-new aerial combat moves. The world’s toughest villains, including Shocker, Vulture, and the Green Goblin will all be after you. Are you up for the challenge?
