Ultimate Spider-Man is a 2005 action-adventure video game based on the comic book of the same name created by Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley. The game was released for PlayStation 2, Xbox, Microsoft Windows, Game Boy Advance, GameCube, and Nintendo DS. The console and PC versions are the second open world Spider-Man video game, after 2004's Spider-Man 2, and incorporate similar gameplay, allowing the player to freely explore Manhattan and parts of Queens, while engaging in various side activities. The handheld versions are side-scroller beat 'em ups. The game was exclusively released for the Limited Edition on PlayStation 2. Aside from Spider-Man, the game features Venom as a playable character, with different gameplay mechanics and missions. Set within the Ultimate Marvel universe, the game's story takes place three months after the Venom arc, and centers on Spider-Man's investigation of the corrupt Trask Industries and its connection to the creation of the Symbiote and his parents' death. Meanwhile, Venom must avoid constant capture attempts by Bolivar Trask, who wants to recreate the Symbiote's capabilities. Ultimate Spider-Man received largely positive reviews from critics, and is still regarded as one of the best Spider-Man games produced. A prequel, Spider-Man: Battle for New York, was released for the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS in 2006, while the mobile game, titled Ultimate Spider-Man: Total Mayhem, was released in 2010.
