Story
During the Fall of 2021, Peter Parker begins his new job as a Physics Professor at his alma mater, ESU. Life is good for Peter, he's engaged to Mary-Jane, shares his schedule as Spider-Man with Miles, and had recently reconnected with his best friend Harry Osborn (who now runs both Oscorp and Roxxon Energy, following the very public disgrace of Norman Osborn and Simon Krieger.) However, Wilson Fisk is due for a parole hearing in court, and it's in the public opinion Fisk will walk a free man. Meanwhile, Miles Morales had just graduated from High School, taking a gap year to focus on his adventures as Spider-Man. The game begins with him escorting Wilson Fisk to his parole hearing, surveying for criminal activity. As he swings along, Miles hears an explosion in the distance.
