Marvel's Wolverine - Page 2

Marvel's Wolverine is a third-person action-adventure game developed by Insomniac Games and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment, launching exclusively on PlayStation 5. First announced at the PlayStation Showcase in September 2021 and revealed in full with an extended gameplay showing at a State of Play in September 2025, it is Insomniac's first mature-rated title and its third Marvel property after Marvel's Spider-Man and Marvel's Spider-Man 2. 

Creative direction comes from Brian Horton and Marcus Smith, the pairing behind Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. The game shares a continuity with Insomniac's Spider-Man titles but tells a standalone story that requires no prior knowledge of them.

The story follows Logan across a grounded, character-led narrative that moves from the Canadian wilderness to Madripoor, the lawless Southeast Asian island nation long associated with Wolverine's comics history. Combat leans hard into the brutality the character's rating finally allows, with a focus on close-quarters claw work, environmental kills, and Logan's healing factor as a core mechanic rather than a cutscene detail. It marks a significant tonal departure for Insomniac, whose Marvel output to date has been built around bright, family-friendly superheroics.
