Marvel's Spider-Man: Turf Wars Reviews
Turf Wars is by no means bad, it’s still really good it just takes away some of the things many people loved about both The Heist and the main story but hopefully, Silver Linings can end this DLC saga with a bang.
The second DLC is a step back and Hammered is a less interesting villain with a very poor characterization. We hope that Silver Lining, at least, will be a perfect finale.

I’m surprised to see that the story appears to actually be pushing forward from Spider-Man‘s ending, which already teased a direction for any future sequel.
Turf Wars is a disappointing chapter that does little in progressing the main narrative of The City That Never Sleeps storyline.
Turf Wars is a very simple and short DLC. The fighting is challenging and some missions are interesting, but the story has a poor development and there is no novelty in the gameplay. Like the previous DLC, it's "more of the same".

Like the first one, second DLC does not bring with it anything new, and is aimed at those who are looking for an excuse to return to the game in the form of an interesting story, but for those looking for something substantial this also isn't it.

Although there is not much improvements comparing to the previous DLC, Turf Wars is still a solid action-adventure due to its core gameplay mechanics, and plays an important role in laying the ground for Spider-Man: Silver Lining.

In truth, the real value of Turf Wars is entirely dependent on the final piece of DLC scheduled to hit a month from now. Provided it delivers on an exciting finale, all of the rough spots in the tale will be worth it. Until then, your enjoyment of the Turf Wars DLC will be entirely dependent on how excited you are to fight loads of enemies and how invested you are in the characterization of one of your allies. Overall, it isn't great, but it does enough to keep things intriguing until the final installment.
Turf Wars is a substantial step down from The Heist as its unvaried and brief campaign along with its stereotypical story make it an easily forgettable piece of content.
Sadly the second DLC for Spider-Man disappoints. It's more of the same with a run of the mill story that ties you over until the third and final part. The one saving grace is the great gameplay that keeps you from hooked until the end.

'Spider-Man: Turf Wars' is a middle of the road expansion of one of the year's best games. Lacking in anything new or exciting to draw players back in, 'Turf Wars' skips the opportunity to either resolve plot points or do right by its characters.
Turf Wars is the awkward middle child of the City That Never Sleeps story DLC. It doesn't have the initial excitement of The Heist and is more or less just a set up for the final DLC, but it's still a load of fun considering we get to jump back into the world of Spider-Man.
Turf Wars definitely lacks the spark of The Heist. Not only is it short and a bit lacking in ideas, it genuinely feels like a middle-of-the-road DLC that bridges a thrilling beginning and what will almost certainly be an exciting end.
As a stand-alone chapter though, Turf Wars adds very little to this universe created by Insomniac with a shallow villain and a forced turn for a character that was handled far better in the main campaign.
Marvel's Spider-Man's first DLC as part of The City that Never Sleeps campaign was an outstanding opening that has players teaming up with the lovely and deceptive Black Cat and ending with a bang. Now the adventure continues in Turf Wars where Hammerhead attempts to secure control over New York using whatever means possible. Turf Wars doesn't carry the same charm as The Heist but still delivers a sold penultimate finale with a shocking cliffhanger.
Like The Heist, Turf War is an okay addition to the overall package.
Marvel's Spider-Man: Turf Wars was a step down from the last release, but builds towards what could be a very exciting conclusion.
