Marvel's Spider-Man (2018)

Play the main story in yellow-marker order. The campaign is three acts and 44 missions. Fisk is the opening, Inner Demons and Mister Negative take over the middle, and the Sinister Six close it. The City That Never Sleeps DLC is an epilogue — run it after Pax in Bello, not in the gaps.

Start here: Clearing Fisk . Six chapters cover the full campaign plus DLC order.

Play this series in order

1. Clearing Fisk — Clearing the Way and The Main Event. Construction-site chase, Fisk Tower, Kingpin.
2. My Other Other Job — Otto’s lab in Greenwich. Circuit board, spectrograph, then police towers.
3. Demons Emerge — rest of Act 1 through City Hall.
4. The Six Assemble — Act 2 through the Raft.
5. End Game — Act 3 through Pax in Bello.
6. The City That Never Sleeps — Heist, Turf Wars, Silver Lining.

Street crimes, backpacks, hideouts, landmarks, and research stations can run in the gaps. They should not jump the queue ahead of the next yellow marker if you care about story.

Side content in the gaps

These sit beside the yellow markers. They do not replace them.

• Street crimes and police towers — start after Keeping the Peace.
• Backpacks, Fisk hideouts, landmarks, research stations — each has a tutorial mission in Act 1.
• Black Cat stakeouts — after Stakeout.
• Taskmaster challenges — after What’s in the Box?
• Side missions — Spider-Man, P.I., The Network is Down, Tombstone’s three-part line, Helping Howard, College Buddies, and the rest unlock as the acts move. None of them are required for Pax in Bello.
