The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Videogame Revealed

Activision has announced a tie-in videogame for The Amazing Spider-Man 2 - along with a video teaser.

The software giant has revealed that the free-roaming game will be set in NYC and will feature an alternative storyline running alongside the plot of the movie.

It is being developed by Beenox, the studio behind the earlier Amazing Spider-Man, Edge Of Time and Shattered Dimensions games.

Beenox co-head Thomas Wilson said: "The first The Amazing Spider-Man game gave players their own beautifully animated, free-roaming city of Manhattan to traverse and explore - a playground of majestic scale in which to live out our common hero fantasies."

"And the overwhelming message from fans was: 'MORE!' That's what our team is working toward with The Amazing Spider-Man 2 - we're giving gamers more abilities, more upgrades, more challenges and more freedom to progress.

"And with the game launching alongside the new movie, offering an expanded interactive experience beyond the film, fans of the franchise won't want to miss playing it."

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will be sold for Xbox 360, PS3, Xbox One, PS4, Wii U and 3DS - and will hit the shelves next spring.
