This outing is nothing more than a promotional piece for the upcoming Spider-Man: Far From Home movie, and it’s worth remembering that.

The main takeaway I got from this is that it’s at least possible to create a Spider-Man game in VR, given enough time, effort, and resources. It takes a few minutes to get accustomed to the controls as the face buttons are used for turning and jumping, but once you’ve spent a few minutes tapping away blindly, you’ll be swinging around like a pro. They’re not particularly deep or fun, but at least the swinging around the city is somewhat enjoyable with easy controls and a pace that didn’t have me chucking my lunch up into my lap.

You can swing around the city at your leisure, or take on the in-game trials to master your Spidey skills.

The highlight of this experience is in the freeplay mode where you’re able to do whatever you want, within reason. There’s a bit of dialogue between Spidey and his classmate, Ned, but it’s very basic and you’ll hear the same lines repeated over the course of the encounter. You’ll swing around a little bit, shoot some webs at some drone-like enemies, and eventually foil the monstrous machine by first removing its armour, and then hitting it with enough webbing to cause it to stumble. It’s just one short mission where you need to stop a giant robot from making its way through the city. The story mode barely qualifies as a story. There are two game modes to choose from, one being the ‘Story’ and the other being ‘Freeplay.’ Both are equally poor, so don’t get too hung up on which to choose first. The “game” is a short experience that gives you the chance to step into the tight spandex of Tom Holland’s Spidey. Free doesn’t always translate to good, though, and unfortunately the Spider-Man: Far From Home VR Experience is another case of lost-in-translation. Whether it’s a free drink, a free meal, or a free VR experience. I’m never one to turn my nose at free stuff.
