Critic Reviews for Marvel's Spider-Man: The Heist
Black Cat's intro is great, but the first DLC episode feels more like a first act than satisfying, standalone content.
Spider-Man's first episode is fantastic in almost all the same ways that the main game is.
Black Cat's DNA was already spliced into side activities in Spider-Man so her appearance makes sense, even if the "to be continued" ending is a bummer (I guess that eliminates the idea of further DLCs being standalone). It's not the most explosive beginning, but it does feel like more of a natural extension rather than a tacked-on thing. As does the possible baby mamma drama.
A fun DLC that doen't make anything new, but still entertain during the 3 hours that it lasts.

More than anything, The Heist leaves you begging for more, and I guess that's what the idea was. It's just enough more Spider-Man to get you back into the swing of things, but it leaves you hanging with an abrupt ending and minimal new side content. But at only $10, it's worth it to get back into Insomniac's lovingly created New York.
The Heist is a good bite-sized morsel of content that kept my attention throughout, and I'm excited to see where the rest of these chapters go. I just hope the Insomniac team can keep things interesting throughout.
