That's the news coming from a Con panel (as reported by comic news site Newsarama), as the studio showed off a trailer of Spidey taking on a huge robotic enemy.

Open world has been the style of choice for Spider-Man developers in the past, allowing Spidey to swing around a New York filled with chase sequences and mini-missions, but is a change for Beenox, as both Shattered Dimensions and the recently released Edge of Time focused on smaller, self-contained levels and elaborate combat moves.
