Having renewed its Spider-Man license with Marvel at the start of June, French publisher Gameloft has taken to the wires to herald the series' latest smartphone success, The Amazing Spider-Man.
The game which naturally ties into Sony Pictures' movie of the same name has hit the top five grossing games in a total of 72 countries since it launched on 28 June, including the US, UK, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Russia and Brazil.
Partner power
"We are delighted that the The Amazing Spider-Man has been met with such great enthusiasm," said Gonzague de Vallois, Senior Vice-President Publishing at Gameloft.
Our production teams have invested heavily in making sure to offer both fans of Gameloft and the Spider-Man franchise a fully immersive experience into the super hero's world with a completely open 3D environment and stunning graphics."
There's been no word on the game's performance on Google Play, though Marvel claims to be pleased with the game's "robust, action-packed" nature.
"That Spider-Man continues to draw fans and mobile gamers into his web is testimony to the strength of the continuing partnership between Gameloft and Marvel Entertainment," added senior VP of games and digital distribution at Marvel Andreea Enache-Thune.
The two companies previously teamed up to develop 2011's Spider-Man: Total Mayhem for iPhone, Android and Xperia Play.
