The Web of Spider-Man 3 (2022 video game)

The Web Of Spider-Man 3 is an open-world action adventure, thrill combat video game based on the popular Marvel Comics character, Spider-Man, releasing in 2022, and is the sequel to 2017's The Web Of Spider-Man and 2020's The Web Of Spider-Man 2. Insomniac Games makes a surprise return at E3 2021 and announces they will develop the game, with 2k Games publishing the project and one more afterwards. Bryan Inthiar steps down the role as director of the franchise, with Brian Allgeier taking Inthiar's place as director. Allgeier honors the last two installments, after sales have made a reputation for themselves. Allgeier, at E3 2021, stated, "What is so unique about The Web Of Spider-Man video game franchise is that it is a coming-of-age story for Peter Parker and his identity as Spider-Man. The first game we saw him facing the Vulture and the Kingpin and trying to stop the Big Man's big crime syndicate of villains and the second game followed that up with Peter getting the infamous symbiotic suit and ending the giant story that started with the Big Man. This game starts a new storyline and we are proud to say that we have worked on new mechanics for the game. Although there are very similar mechanics, we want players to have a satisfying time playing the game, not the same game five years in a row".

Gameplay Dynamics

 * Although the combat system possesses the similarities of the last two installments, Insomniac has added more abilities and upgrades to add upon to that such as having the player be able to look through the eyes of Spider-Man and picking out hard enemies and getting tips on how to defeat them. The parkour and dodge system is enhanced, with the player now having the ability to interact with the environment while pummeling enemies (e.g. throwing a crane at a criminal).
 * The player (considering the hectic storyline involving Venom) has the ability to talk to random civilians in need and even after (SPOILERS) the New York symbiotic infection is over, the player can talk to random citizens and that will lead to interesting questlines.
 * As always, Manhattan and Queens are roam-able for the player, however, Insomniac added Brooklyn to map, making it 33% larger than the previous installments.
 * Considering the storyline with Venom and the symbiote, there will be a "Survival Helper" system, where if Spider-Man continues to help victims, his reputation will go up and that will decrease the likelihood of being attacked by bandits and thugs.
 * The player has the ability to have a variety of swinging mechanics with the new wall-jumping and parkour moves added to the swinging mechanics.
 * A "Daily Objectives" tab is added the Spider-Man's cell phone, which can affect his reputation, the cost of his upgrades, and can sometimes even help continue the main storyline and its missions.

Synopsis
Several months after the tragic death of Gwen Stacy, Peter Parker has a difficult time being motivated to continue his career as the Wall-Crawler vigilante of New York. As Peter tries to get over the death of his beloved Gwen, he encounters fellow vigilante, Daredevil, who tells Spider-Man that Chinatown cook and undercover mobster, Martin Li, is beginning to make moves around the city with the "Demons". As Spider-Man, with the returning Black Cat, try to stop Li and unfold what Li actually wants with the superhuman shipping to New York, Spider-Man finds out that a symbiotic figure has been recently spotted in New York, known as Venom. He learns the hard fact that Venom is Eddie Brock, looking to destroy everything Peter holds dear. Brock somehow manages to infect the entire population of New York and gives Peter one message; if he does not stop the virus that is spreading around New York, people will die because of him and his secret identity will be revealed. With the help of SHIELD, other fellow Avengers and helping hands from even the likes of villains like Wilson Fisk and Adrian Toomes, Spider-Man must save New York from turning into a symbiotic wasteland. Will Spider-Man have to reunite with the symbiote in order to stop Venom? In the midst of this, the symbiote creates a spawn that is far more powerful than Spider-Man and Venom combined...

Main Missions
Story: The game starts with a flashback of a fight between Spider-Man and Green Goblin on the George Washington Bridge, fighting over the unconscious body of Gwen Stacy. As Peter remembers that, he looks into the mirror of himself, picturing half of himself as Spider-Man. Peter dresses up in his new apartment and goes to the Trinity Cemetery to visit Gwen's grave. The player can control Peter and pay respects to Gwen's grave. The player then has the ability to swing around New York as Spider-Man and as the player gets a tutorial on the new swinging mechanics, Spider-Man stops by a new advertisement, which advertises for any individual who wants to buy Oscorp Industries, as Norman Osborn and Harry Osborn have sold the company and Norman is temporarily taking Harry to Europe to cool down from his addiction to drugs and Globulin Green.
 * In Mourning...

Objectives: Story: To trigger the mission, the player will had to have completed the "Daily Objectives" tab and Spider-Man swings to Chinatown at night after his spider sense goes off. Spider-Man swings there and ominous shooting and cannot seem to find it. As he is swinging, J. Jonah Jameson calls Peter and asks, "Parker, some gangsters calling themselves the Demons are having a shootout in Chinatown. Get me some pictures or evidence of the event!" Peter agrees and Spider-Man must swing and use his spider sense to spot where the shooting actually is. When the player spots the shooting, Spider-Man must stop the Demons, who are a Chinese gang of advanced, super strength superhumans, or possibly even Chinese gang members tested on to become superhuman. Spider-Man must use the new parkour combat movement to defeat the criminals one-by-one and afterwards, Spider-Man is greeted by Detective Jean DeWolffe, who claims, "I have not seen your face in a while... Good to have you back". Spider-Man agrees and DeWolffe tells Spider-Man that the Demons have been making serious moves in Chinatown, as well as the rest of Manhattan. Spider-Man's spider sense then goes off yet again and the player needs to find the disturbance and Spider-Man eventually finds out that a Chinese restaurant is being attacked by armed Demons. Spider-Man must sabotage their shooting and fight a brute. After this, DeWolffe talks on the comms with a couple of other PD officers. An elder detective of Chinatown, Yuri Wantanbe, reports to DeWolffe that not only Chinatown is being terrorized by superhuman gangsters, but Hell's Kitchen is also being terrorized, but that someone is actually stopping the Demons, other than the PD and Spider-Man. Spider-Man jokingly thinks in his mind that Daredevil, the vigilante of Hell's Kitchen, is up to this. Spider-Man then must swing away and take pictures for the Daily Bugle and send them to J. Jonah Jameson. Jameson then sends a hilarious text telling Peter that he is fired.
