Marvel Comics released a line of books featuring futuristic versions of its many popular heroes in the early ‘90s. The 2099 series failed to gain any traction, but Spider-Man 2099 will have a second chance at life later this year when developer Beenox brings this futuristic superhero back from the past in Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions.
In April, Activision announced Shattered Dimensions, a Spider-Man game that would cover four different universes and introduce gamers to versions of Spider-Man they likely weren’t familiar with. Not only will each universe have its own art style, but it will also have its own distinct set of play mechanics. We break down the differences between all three announced worlds below.
TW: “With the recent release of the sequel film, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, I’ve been revisiting the astounding world of the Spider-Verse, enjoying both the prequel and the new sequel film in all their glory; and it’s led me to ask one question — why the hell isn’t there a Spider-Verse game?”
There sure was a super sweet looking cell shaded suit. Made you feel like your actually playing a comic.
It would still be sick though. And I dont mean cell shading to cut corners. It would have to be amazing like the movies themselves.
I too would like a whole game with the entire world looking like the animated movie. It could be awesome
Sometimes, companies feel they have to add a little star power to their games. So, they call in actual stars. Take a look at ten times where pulling in celebrities was a great idea.
Before Insomniac, there was Beenox; the studio reminisces on Shattered Dimensions, Edge of Time, and more
"I only wish we had five years on any one of the Spider-Man games we made!"
Well, you don't have to work for Activision ya know. But yeah, they did a fair job considering the limited resources and well....Activision.
TASM2 was like the last superhero movie that had a movie tie-in game accompanying it
