Venom is set to make his return to the big screen this coming week as Tom Hardy takes on the role of Eddie Brock in Sony’s Spider-Man spinoff, and to celebrate FoxNext has announced that the symbiote is now available as a playable character in Marvel Strike Force.
With autonomous defense moves, an amorphous costume, the powers of Spider-Man (Venom’s first host), and then some, Venom is one of humanity’s greatest threats, and now its greatest ally. Venom’s deadly abilities include a whirlwind attack using his razor sharp claws and tongue, a strike from above that inflicts a bleeding effect, and a devastating explosion that calls upon his alien symbiote to corrupt enemies and any other foes unfortunate enough to be nearby.
Here’s the S.H.I.E.L.D. Medic to introduce Venom to players…
