Both Activision and Treyarch are working closely with Columbia Pictures and Spider-Man Merchandising L.P., a limited partnership between Marvel Enterprises, Inc. and Sony Pictures Consumer Products Inc., during all stages of the game's development.

The title, which is inspired by the upcoming Columbia Pictures/Marvel Entertainment feature film "Spider-Man," is expected to be available on the PlayStation 2, Xbox, Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy® Advance in May 2002 to coincide with the release of the film.

Activision has partnered with Treyarch on such past projects as Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2x for Xbox, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 and Spider-Man® for Sega Dreamcast.
