The Superior Spider-Man

The Superior Spider-Man (released overseas as The Amazing Spider-Man 3) is an action-adventure video game developed by Beenox and published by Activision and Square Enix based on Marvel Comics’ superhero Spider-Man. The game was released worldwide on 8 July 2016 for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo 3DS, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Wii U, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. It is a sequel to the 2014 video game The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and loosely based on the comic book title of the same name.
The Superior Spider-Man takes place two years after the events of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 in a continuity that is separate from the films, and introduces new characters including Eddie Brock / Venom and Dr. Otto Octavius / Doctor Octopus. The game's story is a spin on the comic book title of the same name, where Peter Parker's body is taken over by the mind of Dr. Otto Octavius; in the game, Peter's body is taken over by the mind of Eddie Brock, with Eddie becoming Spider-Man and Peter becoming Venom in Hong Kong, far away from their home of New York City.
The game received mostly positive reviews, with many seeing it as an improvement over Beenox's previous two Spider-Man games, as well as praising the alternate twist on The Superior Spider-Man comic book story and the new, unique location. The Superior Spider-Man was the last Spider-Man game published by Activision and only Spider-Man game to be co-published by Square Enix before the license was passed to Insomniac Games.
== Gameplay ==
The Superior Spider-Man is a third-person action-adventure game set in a vast open world environment, with all of Hong Kong free to explore. The game world is more lively than past titles, with civillans reacting more realistically to what is going on around them, and time and weather changes. Like the Batman: Arkham series, there are also stealth sections and side missions. The game features cel-shaded designs similar to the 2005 game Ultimate Spider-Man to mimic the look of a comic book.
Players control Eddie Brock as Spider-Man and complete missions to progress through the storyline. Many of the missions are open-ended. The Superior Spider-Man can use his powers and abilities to navigate the game's world and levels, and to defeat enemies. The game's combat is similar to The Amazing Spider-Man 2, but is more refined.
Black Cat appears in the game and is a playable character with her own set of missions and side missions, similar to Catwoman's DLC story missions in Batman: Arkham City.
=== Nintendo 3DS version ===
The Nintendo 3DS version of The Superior Spider-Man is a side-scrolling game similar to Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate. It follows the same storyline as the console/PC game, but removes the open world and puts more emphasis on item and stealth-based gameplay with a Metroidvania design. Despite these changes, the Nintendo 3DS version was also a critical success, unlike the Nintendo 3DS version its predecessor.
