History

Between 2002 and 2006, the developer was essentially a porting house. They completed approximately 30 projects for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS, based on popular franchises such as X-Men, Spider-Man and Shrek. In 2006, they returned to original game development, with Bee Movie Game, inspired by the feature film from DreamWorks Animation. As part of Activision's E3 2007 media blitz, it was announced that Beenox was the developer behind the Windows version of Activision's Spider-Man game Spider-Man: Friend or Foe which was released in October 2007. Beenox employs about 440 employees who are developing games for consoles such as PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii. They released the Xbox 360, PS2, PS3, Wii and PC versions of Monsters vs. Aliens and console versions of Guitar Hero Smash Hits. Beenox later created the Spider-Man games Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, Spider-Man: Edge of Time, The Amazing Spider-Man and The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

In 2015, Activision announced that Beenox is working in conjunction with Mercenary Technology on bringing Call of Duty: Black Ops III to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 and working on bringing Skylanders: SuperChargers to the Wii and Nintendo 3DS.
