Developed by Insomniac Games of the "Spyro," "Ratchet & Clank" and "Resistance" franchises, "Marvel's Spider-Man" features Peter Parker as the web-slinging hero except, in contrast to the usual Spidey stories, this Parker is a little older -- the early 20s rather than late teens -- and has become an experienced, frighteningly competent crime-fighter.

The game was first revealed midway through 2016, then brought back for the same E3 presentation the following year and again at Paris Games Week a few months later. With players encouraged to use environmental objects to aid them both in their navigation around the city and during encounters with enemies, the story puts Spider-Man up against a benevolent, philanthropic businessman who has his own superpowered alter-ego, the villainous Mr. Negative.
