IF YOUR SPIDEY SENSES ARE TINGLING, WHEN IT\u2019S \u201cTIME\u201d FOR YOU TO SAVE EVERYBODY\u2019S FAVOURITE WEBHEAD IN SPIDER-MAN\u2122: EDGE OF TIME\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Players Race Across Time to Prevent the Untimely End of Peter Parker in Activision and Marvel\u2019s Latest Spider-Man Video Game<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Sydney \u2013 October 26, 2011 \u2013 Today, Spider-Man\u2122 faces his greatest challenge ever \u2013 saving Spider-Man \u2013 in Spider-Man\u2122: Edge of Time<\/em><\/strong>, available now in retail stores from Activision Publishing, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI<\/a>). Created by Beenox \u2013 the studio that developed last year\u2019s popular Spider-Man\u2122: Shattered Dimensions<\/em> \u2013 players take the roles of both Peter Parker\u2019s Amazing Spider-Man, and Miguel O\u2019Hara\u2019s Spider-Man 2099 in a harrowing, action-packed adventure, spanning two timelines 100-years apart in order to thwart a cataclysmic future from happening \u2013 and the death of Peter Parker.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust like with Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions<\/em>, Beenox is bringing a fresh perspective to the series with Spider-Man: Edge of Time<\/em><\/strong>,\u201d said David Oxford, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Activision Publishing, Inc.\u00a0 \u201cDee Brown and the team at Beenox worked closely with Marvel\u2019s own veteran writer and co-creator of Spider-Man 2099, Peter David, on a high-stakes narrative experience where the ultimate challenge is not only to save the world, but also save Spider-Man himself.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re very excited to bring Spider-Man: Edge of Time<\/em><\/strong> to Marvel fans everywhere,\u201d said TQ Jefferson, Vice President of Games Production, Marvel Entertainment. \u201cActivision and Beenox have managed to pack more fun, excitement and challenge into this game than their previous hit Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions; <\/em>and we\u2019re eager for fans – both new and old – to dive into Spidey\u2019s latest pulse-pounding adventure.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Playing as the two extremely different personas of Peter Parker and Miguel O\u2019Hara, both heroic web-slingers must urgently work together to correct a time stream gone awry, save each other, and prevent the death of the Amazing Spider-Man.\u00a0 With the story\u2019s two timelines evolving in parallel, each Super Hero must navigate through “cause-and-effect” gameplay moments, utilising Spider-Man: Edge of Time<\/em><\/strong>\u2019s picture-in-picture display where the actions of one Spider-Man can result in immediate, and sometimes unexpected, effects on the other Spider-Man and his surroundings.\u00a0 Players will battle a variety of fan-favourite and all-new villains, including Anti-Venom and Black Cat 2099, using expanded combat abilities specific to each timeline \u2013 from Spider-Man 2099\u2019s close-quarters brute force, futuristic enhancements and gravity-defying acrobatics, to the Amazing Spider-Man\u2019s evasive techniques, upgraded web abilities and ranged tactics, as they race against time to preserve the balance of both worlds.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The game includes an all-star voice cast, beginning with legendary film star Val Kilmer as Walker Sloan; Smallville<\/em> and V<\/em> mainstay Laura Vandervoort as Mary Jane; Battlestar Galactica\u2019s<\/em> Katee Sackhoff <\/em>as Black Cat; \u201cThe Spectacular Spider-Man\u2019s\u201d Josh Keaton as the Amazing Spider-Man; and Christopher Daniel Barnes, who voiced the iconic Marvel web-slinger in the 1994 \u201cSpider-Man\u201d series, as the voice of Spider-Man 2099.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Spider-Man: Edge of Time<\/em><\/strong> is rated \u201cM\u201d for Mature Audiences by the Classification Board and is available on the Xbox 360\u00ae video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation\u00ae3 computer entertainment system, Wii\u2122, Nintendo DS\u2122 and 3DS\u2122, all developed by Beenox.\u00a0 The Nintendo 3DS edition marks the debut of Spider-Man on Nintendo\u2019s newest platform.\u00a0 A Nintendo DS\u2122 version, created by developer Other Ocean, is also available and features a platforming adventure full of unique villains, such as the first-ever appearances of Overdrive, Arcade and Big Wheel 2099, created exclusively for this version.\u00a0<\/p>\n
