Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat? After announcing the Xbox One edition of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 would miss it’s planned April 29 launch, Activision has gone ahead and uploaded the game to the Xbox Live Game Store. Xbox One owners are able to buy, download, and play the game, so this doesn’t appear to be an accident on Activision’s part. Microsoft’s Major Nelson even promoted the release of the game on his blog.
The Xbox 360 edition of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is also available to download through the Xbox Live Game Store:
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 ($59.99 – Xbox One, $49.99 – Xbox 360)
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 takes place outside the events of the 2nd film in a unique story where Spider-Man discovers a larger threat to NYC that has turned the underworld upside down. Villains from the film and classic Marvel characters are woven together in a twisted web of adrenaline-fueled, web-slinging action that puts players on a collision course with an evil far beyond Spider-Man’s reckoning.
Hopefully, Activision will be able to explain what happened to the retail release of of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 soon.
