Delisting

The digital versions of The Amazing Spider-Man and The Amazing Spider-Man 2 were delisted on January 4th, 2017 for Steam, Nintendo, Xbox and PlayStation platforms.

In 2005 Activision had renegotiated a licensing deal with Marvel for the exclusive publishing rights to the Spider-Man and X-MEN properties through 2017. While several Marvel titles from Activision had been delisted in 2014 (with a select few being re-released in 2015 and 2016), The Amazing Spider-Man games based on the Sony Pictures movies were not. Presumably, these games were secured under the original 2017 deal or a subsequent deal with Sony Pictures that may have expired in 2016. Both Amazing Spider-Man games were also delisted alongside Activision’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan release.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 remains available on physical media for PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Nintendo Wii U and Nintendo 3DS.

 

About the Game

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 takes place alongside the events of the second film in a unique story as Spider-Man searches for Uncle Ben’s killer. You’ll encounter both new foes and old friends as you discover a larger threat to New York City. Fan-favorite Marvel characters are woven together with movie villains in a twisted web of adrenaline-fueled, free-roaming, web-slinging action!

GAME FEATURES*:

  • New Heroism System: ”Hero or Menace” system rewards you for acting as Spider-Man by stopping crime and saving citizens, but face the consequences if you don’t keep down crime rates.
  • Expansive NYC: Explore and take on villains in a more expansive Manhattan cityscape than the previous Amazing Spider-Man.
  • Play as Peter Parker: Play as Spider-Man’s citizen alter-ego persona as you investigate the motivations of multifaceted villains.
