Come November 21st, everyone’s favourite web-slingin’ Spidey with his witty repartee and his red-and-blue tights will be back! And this time, for the Game Boy Advance and the Nintendo DS. Activision will be releasing the title, Spiderman: Battle for New York which has been developed by the Aussie team at Torus Games.
Spiderman: Battle for New York will feature an original storyline based on the Ultimate Spiderman universe, where players will be able to play as both Spiderman and his arch nemesis, Green Goblin. Familiar faces are bound to appear throughout the game, as well as a large number of original characters for the player to battle through.
Superherohype.com caught Lead Designer Vaughan Marshall from Torus for a chat, and when asked on some insights into the game-play and how it will differ between the two playable characters, had this to say:
As you would expect, Spider-Man is able to crawl on any surface and swing through the air on his web-line. He is also a supreme athlete armed with rapid attacks, gravity-defying moves and superhuman agility. However, being one of the good guys means that Spider-Man must always be ready to save citizens in trouble!
Playing Spider-Man is fun, but some might argue that it is more fun to play the bad guy! As Goblin, the player will use brute strength, classic wrestling moves and fire attacks to defeat the hordes of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents hot on his trail. If Spider-Man is a martial artist, then Goblin is the mighty wrestler…armed with a flame thrower!
