Pre-Order Shattered Dimensions on Amazon, Play as the Iron Spider

This article is over 14 years old and may contain outdated information

The battle for unlockable superhero content begins! Amazon has announced the “Iron Spider” costume as an exclusive pre-order deal for the Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions.

The “Iron Spider” outfit was never my favorite look on Peter Parker. Then again, there was very little about Marvel’s “Civil War” storyline that I actually enjoyed. Still, the outfit Tony Stark designed for Spider-Man was certainly visually interesting, which is probably why Amazon is offering to provide customers with an unlock code for the costume if they pre-order Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions.

If gamers decide to pre-order the game from the online retailer, they’ll be provided with an art book that will include a code to unlock the Iron Spider costume to be used in the 2099 world. No real details about if this costume will provide a different play experience, since the costume came with some mechanical arms that gave Spidey some new abilities.

GameStop has revealed that Captain Universe will be unlockable for players who pre-order the game. While I’m not exactly a fan of gamers having to pre-order a game from specific retailers to gain access to specific content, I’m hoping for more unlockable costumes that Spidey will be able to wear.

Spider-Man has had some awesome outfits over the years (as well as some terrible ones). I was always a fan of the Dusk and Richochet costumes from his “Identity Crisis” storyline. What about you? What costume would you like to see make an appearance in Shattered Dimensions?
