Marvel's The Avenging Spider-Man

Marvel’s The Avenging Spider-Man is an upcoming action-adventure game developed by Insomniac Games and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 4, based on the Marvel Comics superhero Spider-Man. Set to release worldwide on September 6, 2019, the game is a sequel to the 2018 video game and centers on a new storyline featuring Spider-Man and the Avengers.

Gameplay
Along with the same gameplay of the previous game, The Avenging Spider-Man features new playable characters along with Spider-Man, including the Avengers (Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Black Widow, Captain Marvel, Hawkeye and Hulk), each of them with his/her unique traits and abilities. Once again, Mary Jane Watson and Miles Morales are also playable in key parts of the game, but this time in their new superhero forms of Firestar and Kid Arachnid respectively. Kamala Khan / Ms. Marvel is also playable in the game. Similarly to Batman: Arkham Knight, the game includes a "Dual Play" system, in which players can seamlessly switch control of Spider-Man to one of his allies during certain events of the game: the Avengers, Firestar, Ms. Marvel, or Kid Arachnid while in FreeFlow Combat, which the player enters when they have accumulated an uninterrupted combat-streak. Each successful, uninterrupted attack adds to the player's combat score, which carries over between each controlled character, and unlocks double-team takedowns on opponents at higher scores.

Premise
One year after the defeats of Mr. Negative and Doctor Octopus and aunt May’s death, Peter Parker continues his career as Spider-an as he is invited by Tony Stark to join the Avengers. While he also carries on the new responsibility of becoming a mentor to Miles Morales (who now operates as Kid Arachnid after being bitten by a radioactive spider which escaped Oscorp), Parker also resumes his relationship with Mary Jane Watson, who discovers her own true origins when a cloud of Terrigen Mist, the formula which awakens the powers of Inhumans, awakens her Pyrokinetic powers and leads her to a new superhero life as Firestar. Spider-Man will soon find himself in need of teamwork when the Mad Titan Thanos arrives on Earth longing to recruit villainous metahumans from Earth (including Doctor Octopus) and brainwash them as new members of his new Black Order and commit the genocide of Inhumans.

Downloadable Content
Like the previous game, The Avenging Spider-Man features three extra chapters which are available via downloadable content. Unlike the chapters of previous game, however, they feature other playable characters other than Spider-Man.

Wakanda Forever!
Set in the middle of the game's story, T'Challa / Black Panther pursues Erik Killmonger while crossing paths with Ulysses Klaw, Hammerhead and Kraven the Hunter in New York City.

Lethal Protector
Set after the post-credit scene of the game's story, Eddie Brock struggles to keep both his temper and the Symbiote inside him under control while the two form an uneasy alliance to stop the Symbiotes unleashed by Carlton Drake in Life Foundation and led by the monstrous Riot.

Visuals and Design of Characters
While the game retains the game visuals, design and animation as in the previous game and the ensemble cast of characters from the previous game retain their visuals from the previous story, the new characters (including the Avengers) are designed after their appearances in current comics as well as their actors' performances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Mary Jane Watson's Firestar costume is a hybrid of the one worn by the Liz Allan version of Firestar in the Ultimate Comics with Carol Danvers' Warbird costume.

Soundtrack
Along with mixes of the previous game's soundtrack, the game also uses replays from the Marvel Cinematic Universe film themes, such as the theme song of the Avengers composed by Alan Silvestri.
