Marvel Game Adds Clever Nods to Spider-Man Actors

[ad_1]

The latest update for the mobile game Marvel Contest of Champions includes several references to the rumors surrounding Spider-Man: No Way Home.

The latest update for Marvel Contest of Champions includes a tie-in event with the upcoming film Spider-Man: No Way Home alongside some very clever wordplay.

Found by Facebook user Reggie Nelson and shared by Twitter user @CaptainBayeee, the Side Quest menu for Marvel Contest of Champions includes a selection of new quests themed around No Way Home. Each of the quests is represented by a poster that includes villains set to appear in No Way Home. Chapter One features Doctor Octopus and Green Goblin, followed by Chapter Two’s Electro and Rhino while Chapter Three caps the event off with Vulture and Mysterio. The promotional material for No Way Home has so far confirmed the appearance of Green Goblin, Doc Ock, and Electro while the film’s other known villains, Sandman and The Lizard, aren’t represented in any of the missions.

Beyond those visualizations, the names of each chapter are all clever references to the rumors regarding the return of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield as their respective Peter Parkers. The chapters feature such titles as, “To Be or Not To Be?” “And Rue The Day,” and “Tomfoolery.” Phonetically, each one is a clever pun on the name of the actors that have played Spider-Man in various different film franchises.

The official description of the limited-time event reads, “A Sinister Celebration. Relive some of Spider-Man’s greatest big screen battles…with a holiday twist.” This further confirms the references to Spider-Man’s live-action adventures while also teasing The Sinister Six, a group of supervillains that unite in an attempt to finally take down Peter Parker once and for all.

With rumors swirling that No Way Home will feature the return of Garfield and Maguire, fans are desperate to get their hands on tickets for the opening day premiere of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s latest Spider-Man film. Some fans have taken to fighting for their opportunity to see the movie while others are trying to resell their tickets for an exorbitant mark-up.

After months of questions regarding his participation in Now Way Home, Garfield, who played Peter Parker in both The Amazing Spider-Man films, recently said, ” Listen, at this point, people just, like … I’m done. Like, we’ll find out when the movie comes out and we’ll either be very disappointed, or we’ll be very happy, or like, someone will say, ‘I told you so.’ And the other person was a bit, ‘I told you so.’ We’ll all find out.”

Spider-Man: No Way Home arrives in theaters on Dec. 17. Marvel Contest of Champions is available to download and play for free on Android and iOS devices.
