Playing Spider-Man In Lego Marvel Super Heroes

Choosing to branch out from the Marvel film universe and include the entire brand's cast of characters in Lego Marvel Super Heroes was a bold move for TT Games. Arguably the biggest question was what to do with a Lego version of Spider-Man. The team at Traveller's Tales decided to embrace the challenge and create a version of the classic character that has the full maneuverability and web-slinging options that we'd expect when exploring the open-world version of Lego New York City.

Watch the video below to hear the game director Arthur Parsons talk about the development challenge and discuss the possibility of a Stan Lee cameo.

  • Spider-Man! Spider-Man! Does what ever a spider can!
  • STAN LEE! STAN LEE!
  • Time to put another couple dollars in the "For games that feature Stan Lee" jar. Really like the direction they're taking Spiderman.
  • This is looking to be a great game.  I really enjoyed the last LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes, surprisingly.  But I am a much bigger fan of Marvel.  This might be the first time I'm actually excited for a LEGO game release.

  • You know whats absolutely amazing about the Lego franchise? You can play as SO many different characters without having to buy the actual LEGO character, or some portal.
  • My excitement grows!!!

  • There absolutely HAS to be Lego Stan Lee!

  • I am totally getting this game for 3DS. LEGO Spider-Man looks adorable! I hope he gets a spinoff game!
  • EPIC AWESOMENESS!!!

  • If Stan Lee is in the game I hope he is invincible and can fly and has super strength! He will.

  • probably will buy this when it comes out, lego game and avengers is win-win

  • I love me some spider man.

  • Just put in a Lego Stan Lee on top of the Empire Skyscraper. That will work.

  • Yeah I can imagine the curveball it kind of throws at the developer to make such a slender and quick character move like he should in the blocky hard edged world of LEGO.

  • They have to include Stan Lee, I mean he is in every single one of the Marvels movies. And did anyone saw the Female Shepard poster of Mass Effect 3 they have in their office, I would not mind a Mass Effect Easter egg in the form of Wrex. GI please send them this request. Stan Lee is a must. But Wrex......

  • Hahahaha I have such fond memories of the old 2000 Spider Man game lol I played it all the time... And then put in the cheat codes lol
  • Been loving all this Lego Marvel coverage! Keep it coming!

  • This game just keeps getting more and more interesting.

  • this is quickly becoming one of my most anticipated games, these videos are making the wait more and more unbearable

  • Can only imagine the glory of co-op with Spider-man and Lego Stan Lee. . . for that matter, I want an official Lego Stan Lee mini-figure!!! Do it Lego!
