Challenge 1: Finish Line

To complete this challenge, simply finish the level.

When the level starts, search for studs and breakable objects as you make your way down the corridor. When you spot Venom, clear out the enemies that emerge from the floor.

When the area is clear, approach the bars to the right. Destroy the two large machines near the bars to blast a path to the next room.

When you pass through the bars, Venom makes another brief appearance and more enemies emerge from the floor. Defeat your attackers to lure Venom back into the room.

Venom doesn’t attack at this point, so you’re free to search the room for any items of interest. When you’re ready, approach Venom and use Spider-Man’s Grab move to latch onto the tank beneath him.

After a moment, the tank topples over, dropping Venom to the ground and leaving him stunned. Attack Venom until he recovers.

When Venom recovers, he leaves the room and three more infected scientists appear in the area. Clear out these enemies, then watch the floor for signs of movement.

After you defeat the scientists, three bubbling puddles of Venom goo appear on the floor. Move clear of all three puddles to avoid the giant tentacles that burst into the room.

Wait for the tentacles to sink back into the floor. When they do, Venom appears on the large tank to the right. Assemble the Build-it near the tank to create an explosive device, then move back and wait for it to detonate.

The explosion knocks Venom to the ground, leaving him stunned. Attack Venom until he recovers, then watch the ground for more bubbling puddles of Venom goo. Move to safety and wait for the next round of tentacles to emerge.

When the tentacles sink back into the floor, venom appears on a nearby tank and summons another wave of enemies. A Hazmat goon bursts through the wall to the right, and three infected scientists emerge from the floor. Dash away from the enemies and use ranged attacks to pick off the scientists. When the Hazmat goon charges, slip behind him and strike the tank on his back to defeat him with a single attack.

Once you’ve dealt with your attackers, assemble the Build-it near the wall to the right.

When all the bits are in place, the Build-it forms a large bell. Use Spider-Man’s Grab move to ring the bell and knock Venom back to the floor.

When you’re ready, attack Venom until he collapses to finish the level.

Challenge 2: Stud Collector

To complete this challenge, you must collect over 13,000 studs before the level ends.

The level contains plenty of enemies and destructible objects, so take the time to clear the entire map.

Before you engage Venom, use Spider-Man’s flight mode (web swinging) to search the hidden platform at the end of the map. After you destroy all the objects on the platform, remember to destroy the container that falls to the ground. Once you’ve swept the area, defeat the remaining enemies to earn the required studs.

Challenge 3: Minikit

To complete this challenge, you must collect the minikit hidden in the level.

After you unlock Jean Grey, use her telekinesis to complete this challenge during Free Play. Before you engage Venom, locate the large pipe segment in the lower-right corner of the map.

Use Jean Grey’s telekinesis to lift the pipe segment and reveal the minikit.

Challenge 4: Venom Vanquisher

To complete this challenge, you must defeat Venom within the 120-second time limit.

The best way to stay ahead of the clock is to avoid collecting studs or any breakable objects that aren’t required to progress through the battle. Spider-Man’s ranged attacks are more than capable of clearing out large groups of enemies, but a well-timed Tag Move or Super Move could help you save a few seconds. Keep an eye on the clock, avoid unnecessary exploration, and defeat Venom as quickly as possible.

Challenge 5: Red Brick

To complete this challenge, you must find and collect this level’s Red Brick.

After you unlock Free Play for this level, use Hawkeye’s sharpshooting ability to activate the three switches near the start of the map.

When you trigger all three switches, the nearby panel slides open to reveal the Red Brick.

Challenge 6: Clean Sweep

To complete this challenge, you must defeat all 12 infected scientists.

This map is fairly simple, so you shouldn’t have any trouble finding all the infected scientists before you finish the level. Take your time and clear out each attacker as you move through each area, and make sure you’ve completed the challenge before you finish the battle with Venom.

Challenge 7: Hazmat Hazard

To complete this challenge, you must finish the level without defeating the Hazmat goon.

The Hazmat goon is an imposing enemy, but his attacks are fairly easy to avoid. Progress through the level until the Hazmat goon appears, then move to the other side of the room and clear out the infected scientists. Once the Hazmat goon moves away from Venom, dash back across the room and assemble the bell. Try to finish the battle before the lumbering enemy catches up to you, or simply dodge the goon’s attacks as you complete the level.

Challenge 8: Civilian Peril

To complete this challenge, you must find and rescue a single civilian.

The civilian is hidden in one of the tanks at the end of the level. Before you engage Venom, use Spider-Man’s flight mode to reach the hidden platform in the corner of the room. Smash the control panel at the edge of the platform to free the civilian from the nearby tank.

Challenge 9: You Rang

To complete this challenge, you must ring the bell three times before you finish the level.

The first time you ring the bell, Venom falls to the floor. Simply ring the bell two more times before you attack him to complete this challenge.

Challenge 10: Multi-Challenge

To complete this challenge, you must avoid taking damage or calling on your Tag partner as you complete the level within the 120-second time limit.

Avoid smashing any objects that aren’t required to progress through the level, and use ranged attacks to strike your enemies from a safe distance. When you attempt this challenge, it’s particularly important to avoid the tentacles that emerge during the battle with Venom. Stay alert, and move away from any bubbling Venom goo that appears on the floor. Stay healthy, avoid calling on your Tag partner, and defeat Venom within the allotted time.
