'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' (ALL) Pre-Order Incentive

by Rainier on March 3, 2014 @ 10:30 a.m. PST

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is a third-person action-adventure that builds on the story of the previous game with an alternative take on the events of the movie of the same name. It gives players an enhanced, free-roaming web-slinging experience through a greatly expanded New York City.

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.

Web-heads who buy the game early through GameStop, GAME (UK), or Amazon will receive the Web Threads Suit Pack, a DLC bundle making available four sleek, super-powered suits for Spidey’s wardrobe on launch day. Each outfit offers unique combat bonuses throughout the adventure, as well as a great look for those front page shots in The Daily Bugle.

The Web Threads Suit Pack contains:

  • The cutting-edge designed, red and gold Iron Spider Suit
  • The stellar, blue and white Cosmic Spider-Man Suit
  • The all-consuming, Venom-like Black Suit
  • The pulp-style Spider-Man Noir Suit
