In a little over a week, we’ll be seeing the next Spider-Man title for the first time. The reveal will be taking place at WonderCon on April 2, where the first information, screenshots, and videos will be shown. Beenox is developing the project, which probably is the best thing for the franchise at this time. Their first Spider-Man title, Shattered Dimensions, was a step in the right direction.
“Marvel, Activision, and acclaimed developer Beenox are headed to WonderCon with all-new Spider-Man videogame content! First, take a tour with Beenox down memory lane of the award-winning Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, and discuss their post-launch reactions and what key learnings from the fans they are applying to future games. Next, be the first to check out exclusive details, screenshots and videos of the next Spider-Man game, with game development talent from Beenox, acclaimed Marvel writer Peter David (co-creator of Spider-Man 2099), voiceover talent Josh Keaton (voice of Spider-Man in The Spectacular Spider-Man and Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions) and Marvel’s VP of games production, TQ Jefferson.”
