All about the new content's story

The additional content promises new story missions, a new faction of enemies, crimes, challenges, trophies, and three exciting Spider-Man suits.
Appreciation for the artwork in 'The Heist'
'The Heist' has its own brand new artwork, made in collaboration with Marvel's artists. The work features Spider-Man and Black Cat. It was made by famed artist Adi Granov, who notably provided the concept and key-frame artwork in the 2008 Iron Man movie.
