The game was released on April 29 in North America and May 2 in Europe for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo 3DS, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Wii U, and Xbox 360, to mixed reviews. Depending on the platform, different villains from the comics are featured, but all versions of the game feature the film’s two main antagonists: Electro and the Green Goblin.
The game’s plot expands on the film by including additional characters and elements from the Spider-Man comic books and the other aspects of the Marvel Universe. Developed by Beenox and published by Activision, it is the sequel to 2012’s The Amazing Spider-Man and takes place in the same continuity, different from that of the films. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is an open world action-adventure video game based on the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man, and the 2014 film of the same name.
