Miles Morales has just about gotten used to this being Spider-Man thing. Keeping Brooklyn safe, taking down bad guys, and finishing his homework—he’s got this! But when Spider-Man is invited to a launch for a brand-new video game, things go sideways fast.

Miles is left with the fate of the world in his hands, and the clock is ticking. Can he turn old foes to friends and find the answers he needs in time?
