Bring the Hammer Down is the final main mission in the "Turf Wars" downloadable content for Marvel's Spider-Man. Spider-Man tries to stop Hammerhead from killing the Maggia dons before Yuriko Watanabe does something she will regret.

Completing this mission rewards the player with the Iron Spider Armor.

Story[]

When Spider-Man arrives on scene, Hammerhead welcomes him to the live broadcast in which the Maggia dons are to be killed live in a pit slowly filling with cement. He wishes to return to the days in which the Maggia were feared and respected. Spider-Man stops the thugs from pouring in more cement, before heading to the building to battle Hammerhead.

Hammerhead reveals, with Project Olympus, he has become more immortal, and a stronger leader for the Maggia to take seriously. Spider-Man defeats him, and the police arrive to Hammerhead under arrest. Hammerhead is undeterred, until Yuri arrives, trapping Spider-Man with one of Sable's cable traps, before shooting Hammerhead with a Sable gun. She then reminds him of his earlier words to her about fear, as Hammerhead shows visible fear of her himself.

Spider-Man tries to stop Yuri from shooting and killing Hammerhead, but she is surrounded by the police, and stares them down knowing they have seen what she has done. Hammerhead is taken away and presumed dead, although a Hammerhead thug inside the force is able to revive him due to his Project Olympus augmentations.

Walkthrough[]

The first part of the mission is a long combat section in which Spider-Man must battle thugs to prevent them from pouring in more cement. The nearby vehicles make for convenient spots to use Web Bombs and Trip Mines, but otherwise, aerial melee combat is preferred, especially against shielded enemies. Focus should be saved for the Gatling gun brutes.

Later in the battle, the cement mixer shorts out and Spider-Man must web it to keep it shut. After beating the remaining thugs and stopping it, a cutscene leads to the next portion.

Hammerhead boss battle[]

Hammerhead has powerful laser attacks at range that leave behind red electricity. His melee attacks comprise two leaps toward Spider-Man, both of which must be dodged in quick succession. Hammerhead will shrug off Spider-Man's melee attacks in normal circumstances, and his own melee attacks are extremely strong.

The best way to deal damage to Hammerhead is to either dodge his attacks and Web Strike in to attack, to web uo him with Web Shooters or Impact Webs and then attack, or to use Finishers. Because his attacks are extremely strong, it is more important to dodge his attacks than it is to attack him. Hammerhead will summon several other thugs throughout the fight, and these must be defeated first, both to build Focus for Finishers against Hammerhead, and to make it easier to focus on Hammerhead's attacks rather than theirs.

As the fight proceeds, the number of thugs summoned by Hammerhead continues. Despite this, it is still possible to defeat all thugs around him so as to focus on him. The fight has two phases, separated by a cutscene. After the second, he is defeated.

Completing the mission concludes "Turf Wars". At this point, any uncompleted side missions around this DLC can be complete, or the next chapter, "Silver Lining", can be begun with its first mission, "Old Friends".
