Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions Releases New Trailer

We have been following the new Spider-Man game from developer Beenox for awhile now, and after we had a chance to take a look at the game in action at E3, consider us officially interested.

The game is being released next week on September 7 for all platforms, but if you can’t wait that long, check out the new trailer to keep you interested.

Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions allows you to play as four similar, but unique versions of Spider-Man, each with their own gameplay and style. The first is the traditional Amazing Spider-Man that we know well. This version of Spidey uses a combination of acrobatic moves as well as web attacks. Next is the Spidey from the Spider-Man Noir universe, which puts Spidey in a re-imagined New York of the 1930s, where stealth and a brawling-style of fighting are the keys to success. Next is Spider-Man 2099, a futuristic take on Spidey with a sci-fi feel. Of the four characters, this Spidey is the only one that is not Peter Parker, although the gameplay will be familiar. The final Spidey is from the Ultimate universe and is featured wearing a symbiote suit that is likely the symbiote that eventually becomes Venom.

Check out the trailer below for a closer look at the game.

You need to read this free Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 prequel comic
Miles Morales and Peter Parker stand together in Spider-Man 2.

While Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is supposed to come out sometime this fall, we don't actually have that much information on the video game's narrative or any other differences from its predecessors. That's why those looking forward to the game should check out the Marvel's Spider-Man 2 prequel comic, which was previously released physically, but is now available for free on Marvel's website.
Marvel's Spider-Man 2 (2023) No. 1, which was written by Christos Gage and illustrated by Ig Guara, was released physically on May 6 for Free Comic Book Day. Now, just a few days later, Insomniac Games and Marvel have followed up on their promise to make the book available digitally for free, so you can easily read it on Marvel.com.
It's a breezy read that doesn't contain many shocking revelations, but gives more context on what Peter Parker, Miles Morales, and Mary Jane Watson have been up to since the events of Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales. In terms of new villains introduced here that could show up in the game, the Spider-Men fight The Tarantula, an arachnid-themed assassin, and The Hood, a gang leader who's trying to use magic for personal gain.
On the more character-focused side of things, we learn that Peter, Miles, and MJ are now all working together as a tight crime-fighting unit. Peter is now trying to get a teaching certificate and to convince MJ to move in with him. As Peter now lives in Aunt May and Uncle Ben's old house in Queens, that could mean we'll get to explore more boroughs of New York City in Marvel's Spider-Man 2. Meanwhile, Miles decides to pursue a Music Technology major at Empire State University, and J. Jonah Jameson decides to buy back ownership of the Daily Bugle. 
There's little more than a passing mention of Norman Osborn, and we don't see Harry Osborn, Kraven, or Venom in action, so there aren't any must-know reveals from this free comic. Still, it's worth a read if you want to get reacquainted with this Marvel universe, the headspace of the heroes within it, and the gadgets they use ahead of Marvel's Spider-Man 2's launch. 
Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will release exclusively for PlayStation 5 sometime this fall.
