In a classic villain cliché, Alchemax exec and mastermind Walker Sloane (voiced by Val Kilmer) tinkers with time in order to turn a profit. The two Spidermen must team up across time to reset events and set things straight.

When the 2099 mega-corp Alchemax suddenly forms a century before it is supposed to, the two heroes find both their worlds (and time itself) radically altered. With so many previous games to live up to, a solid story and unique presentation are a must to set any web-head title apart. But is this web stretched too thin?Īs far as superhero games go, a new Spider-Man title is guaranteed almost annually. In similar spirit to last year’s Shattered Dimensions, EoT follows The Amazing Spider-Man Peter Parker and Miguel O’Hera’s Spider-Man of 2099 on an adventure to save their past, present and future. True believers of SelectButton rejoice! Beenox brings us the various mythos of the Spider-Man universe to our consoles once again with Spider-Man: Edge of Time.
