Instead, Spider-Man is tasked with dealing with Kraven the Hunter, the Kingpin, Black Cat, and serial killer Cletus Kasady (spoilers for comic fans).
Reporter Whitney Chang and the entire cross-species idea are brought back from the previous title, though each is only vaguely touched on. Think of it as an alternate reality version of the movie's universe. Once you leave the movie link behind, the Amazing Spider-Man 2 you're left with is a continuation of the plotlines established in 2012's The Amazing Spider-Man game.
In fact, the game and the film seem to contradict each other once you add in some continuity issues related to Harry Osborn. If it's meant to be a movie tie-in game, it misses the mark completely Peter Parker doesn't look or sound like Andrew Garfield and the movie villains are only dropped in briefly, making them feel like a complete afterthought. PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, Wii U, 3DS, Android, iOSĪmazing Spider-Man 2 is a hard game to categorize.
