If that fails though and guards are alerted, he will find himself facing off against a variety of enemy types, from armed to armored and everything in between. Using his Spidey sense to see enemies that are otherwise out of sight, along with their Cones of Vision, he can pick enemies off without alerting others. The combat focuses on a familiar combo and counter system, but Spider-Man also has several stealth takedowns at his disposal.

If you need a boost, there is a catapult maneuver to get you moving, as well as the returning web rush, which allows you to pick a highlighted location and zip your way over to it with the touch of a button. You can also swing from trees, but the taller the building, the more surface you have to connect. Webs attach to buildings (unlike the previous game, where they attached to invisible points in the sky), so you need to have a sense of your location. Spidey can also flat out haul across the city using this method, as long as you know your surroundings. Timing the swings correctly, alternating from one building to another, creates a graceful sense of movement that is unique in video games to the character of Spider-Man. You can use just one, but the result is an awkward movement that slows your momentum and pins you close to the building you are swinging from. In order to swing around the Big Apple most efficiently, you’ll need to alternate using both triggers (on an Xbox controller), with the left trigger acting as the web shooter on your left hand, and the right trigger handling the right. Spidey’s ability to freely swing through the city is a cornerstone of the game, and how you will spend a significant portion of your time. Beyond this though, Beenox wouldn’t say how this mechanic might affect the story. People boo and hiss you as you swing by, and the city’s love turns to fear and hatred. Jonah Jameson himself – or at least his voice – takes to the airwaves and condemns the wall crawler. If you fail, or just ignore an event and let it expire (a time bar appears and begins to countdown how long you have once you swing near an event), J. People cheer for you as you swing by, and the city will embrace you as its hero. If you do and are successful, you are treated to a local news anchor touting your heroic deeds in a quick cutscene. The game is set in an open world, and your actions in the sandbox version of Manhattan determine how the public at large reacts to you, thanks to a mechanic called “Hero or Menace.” Random events occur throughout the city, ranging from hostage situations to car chases as a self-appointed friendly neighborhood superhero, it’s your duty to interject.
The crime lord will play a major part in the game, although it’s not clear exactly how.
The one name that did come up during a cutscene in which someone tried to poison Harry Osborn for unknown reasons, was that of Wilson Fisk, aka the Kingpin. We never saw these villains in my demo, but Beenox promised that they all factor in. Spidey’s ability to freely swing through the city is a cornerstone of the game.There’s also a new set of villains for Spidey to battle, including: Black Cat, Kraven the Hunter, and more.
