History[]

Spider-Man[]

Otto Octavius was a scientist that had four metallic arms welded to his spine. Octavius then took the name Doctor Octopus and became an enemy of the superhero called Spider-Man. Several years later, Otto Octavius apparently reformed. However, Octavius was still secretly a criminal and had come up with a plan to create an army of symbiote villains. Doctor Octopus hired Mysterio to dress up as Spider-Man and had him steal one of his machines while at a public demonstration of said machine. Doctor Octopus did this to frame Spider-Man. Doctor Octopus then released a fog into the city as phase two of his plan. This fog was to prepare everyone in the city to be bonded to a symbiote. To help accomplish his goals, Doctor Octopus hired Rhino, Mysterio, and Carnage. Doctor Octopus had Rhino steal from various technology companies around New York City. However, after Spider-Man defeated Rhino, Otto Octavius arrived with the police and used his mechanical arms to subdue Rhino and he took him to prison. This led Spider-Man to believe that Doctor Octopus had reformed.

A short while later, Doctor Octopus had his men kidnap Black Cat. After Spider-Man defeated Mysterio, Mysterio told Spider-Man to go to a warehouse on the waterfront to find where the symbiote army was being produced. Spider-Man's investigation of the warehouse led him to a high-tech underwater lair. In this lair, Spider-Man found the controls for the pipes releasing fog into the city. Spider-Man then used the controls to stop the pipes from releasing the fog into New York City. After exploring the underwater lair, Spider-Man found Doctor Octopus and learned that he had not really reformed and that he was, in fact, the one behind the symbiote army. Spider-Man then fought Doctor Octopus and defeated him.

After Doctor Octopus' defeat, Spider-Man fought Carnage and beat him. However, the symbiote detached itself from Cletus Kasady and bonded to Doctor Octopus. As the undersea base became unstable, Spider-Man ran to find a way to escape. As Spider-Man did this, the "Monster-Ock" followed him and attempted to kill Spider-Man. As Spider-Man escaped the undersea base, Monster-Ock was caught in the explosion. Doctor Octopus survived, but the Carnage symbiote seemingly perished. Doctor Octopus was later taken to prison, where he shared a cell with Mysterio, Scorpion, and Rhino. Each villain blamed Doctor Octopus for their defeat, and Mysterio told Doc Ock that his plan to control the symbiotes was stupid. He then bangs his head on the bars.

He appears at the end, still banging his head on the bars.

Trivia[]

This version of Doctor Octopus had two claws on his robotic tentacles instead of three.
In What If mode Doctor Octopus' boss is much easier as he has shunk so much as his arms can't reach and hurt you.
Monster Ock is unique for being one of the few Spider-Man villains to have been created solely for a video game, as well as being a combination of two pre-existing characters as well.
Interestingly, Atrocity from Spider-Man: Edge of Time, and Superior Venom from the mainstream Marvel Universe are also incarnations of Doctor Octopus being bonded with a Symbiote.
An incarnation of Monster Ock briefly appears in the "Symbiote Saga Part 1" episode of 2010 Animated Universe's TV series entry, Ultimate Spider-Man.
During development, Monster Ock was originally going to be called "Super Ock".
Monster Ock is considered to be one of the scariest villain in a E rated Spider Man game due to his terrifying roar, appearance, and voice. He is also one of the villains you cannot fight due to the base being about to explode, thus leaving no time for a battle.
