The game uses side-scrolling action with light exploration and occasional depth-shifted movement. Spider-Man can run, jump, cling to walls, swing on webs, and use web-based attacks to disable enemies. Levels are broken into segments that mix platforming, pursuit, combat, and boss encounters, while pickups and progression unlock stronger web abilities and combat options.
Spider-Man
The playable hero, using agility, webs, and wall-crawling to stop crime.
Mysterio
The main villain, whose illusions and schemes drive the story.
Use web attacks to control dangerous or ranged enemies before closing in for melee. In crowded sections, keep moving and attack from safer angles instead of trading hits. Bosses usually follow repeatable patterns, so learn their tells first and punish openings rather than forcing damage.
