Spider-Man 2 is a 2004 action-adventure video game, based on the film of the same name, while incorporating additional material from the comic books. Published by Activision, the console versions were developed by Treyarch, while the others had different developers. The game is a follow-up to the 2002 game Spider-Man, itself based on the 2002 film. The Treyarch versions incorporate a full open world design, being the first superhero game to do so. All versions of the game follow and expand upon the film's plot, depicting Spider-Man's struggle to balance his civilian and superhero lives. Meanwhile, his mentor Dr. Otto Octavius becomes supervillain Doctor Octopus and attempts to recreate a dangerous fusion power experiment, forcing Spider-Man to stop him before he destroys Manhattan. Tobey Maguire, Alfred Molina, Kirsten Dunst and J.K. Simmons (PSP version only) reprised their roles from the film, as Spider-Man, Doc Ock, Mary Jane Watson and J. Jonah Jameson, respectively, while Bruce Campbell, who played an usher in the doors of Mary Jane Watson's show, narrates the game.
