Iguana Character Bio And Q&A
The
Amazing Spider-Man Video
Game Bio
Of
all the cross-species to come out of Oscorp, only Iguana was never
claimed as a creation of any of the company’s scientists. That’s
because its true creator, Curt Connors himself, had no idea that one
of his own former experiments would evolve to its current fearsome
form.
Connors’
go-to lab animal, an iguana he referred to as “Iggy,” had
weathered so many odd experiments over the past few months, it was a
wonder the small reptile was still alive. Somewhere along the way,
Connors had injected Iggy with a formula that appeared to have no
effect at all. And it didn’t – at least not in and of itself.
What this particular injection did manage, however, was to serve as a
catalyst that slowly warped and mutated intended effects of other
experimentations upon the animal for months to come.
Shortly after Connors became the Lizard,
Iguana revealed himself within the walls of Oscorp in all his
seven-foot glory. As it turns out, after gestating for months, all of
the strange science going on inside Iggy’s body had come to a head
in the course of a couple hours, morphing him into the remarkable
being terrorizing Manhattan today.

How
is Iguana different in the video game than the comic books?
In
The Amazing Spider-Man
videogame, Iguana has been re-imagined to be more animalistic than
its comic book counterpart. The visual approach is less cartoony,
which makes for really interesting details. He is also permanently
mutated and does not return to his original form during the day.
Therefore, he must hide in the dark corners of Manhattan in his
effort to survive.
Why
did you decide to go with a different version of the character?
In
the spirit of the film reboot, we’re taking a more realistic and
grounded approach to the game, including the characters and villains.
We also wanted to have a clear separation between the Lizard and
Iguana. While you can still feel the humanity behind the Lizard,
Iguana is purely a genetic experiment gone wrong.
What
more can you tell us about Iguana?
In
the game, Iguana uses his scream in order to influence or mind
control other creatures affected by the cross-species virus. That
makes him unique among the other villains in the game, and Spidey
will have to tap into his creativity to figure out how to defeat
Iguana.
What
are Iguana’s motivations?
One
of the most basic motivations of all: survival. Like the other
cross-species in the game, he has escaped from Oscorp and is being
hunted down. Besides, everybody knows that crocodiles and iguanas and
such live in Manhattan’s sewer system, right?
What
is new and exciting about this version of Iguana?
His
re-imagined appearance: he looks great and fierce with broken
restraints still clamped on his arms and legs and very detailed scaly
skin. He also has the ability to control cross-species around him in
which makes for an interesting encounter…
