I think its safe to say that most of us wanted to be Spider-Man in our high school years. The whole charm of the character is overcoming extreme odds to prove yourself to the world; its an allegory for puberty and the radical changes that happen to your body. That being said, we used to get actual good Spider-Man games, so a lot of us had our fix for web slinging and wall crawling years ago.

As for the younger generation, you guys can experience Spider-Man in a new VR experience! Out now on Steam for the low price of free, Spider-Man: Homecoming VR Experience is a first-person, VR laden adventure through the eyes of Tom Holland in the upcoming film. It features all of Spidey’s classic gimmicks as well as a boss battle against the Vulture…at least, I believe that is what’s going on in the trailer.

This “experience” works on the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, so you just need to give it a download to have a go. If you happen to have PlayStation VR, then don’t fret! The game is also available on PS4 for the same low price.

While I haven’t tested it out myself (I don’t own a VR headset), I will say that I’m pleased crappy movie tie-in games are now coming out as free things. It was always a shame, back in the day, to get super hyped for a film, buy the stupid game and then waste a month with something terrible.
