Insomniac Games, a developer operating under Sony, had great success on the PlayStation side with the Marvel’s Spider-Man series, of which we have seen three games so far. The company made an announcement in 2021 that excited the fans. This announcement was of a game inspired by the beloved Marvel character Wolverine.
We haven’t seen much development about the Wolverine game in over two years, other than a brief teaser shown in the announcement and minor leaks. While the patience of those waiting has begun to wear thin, some new information about the production has emerged today. The leak contains information about the game’s release date and content.
Wolverine will allegedly be released in 2025 and will be much “darker” than the Spider-Man games
According to DanielRPK, known for its leaks about games, Insomniac will release Wolverine as a PlayStation 5 exclusive game in 2025, as expected. This means that, if the claim is true, the game will be released four years after it was first announced.
There is also information about the details of the game in the leak. Accordingly, Wolverine will take place in a much darker atmosphere and contain more violence compared to the Spider-Man games. This is not surprising when we consider the character’s appearance in the comics and movies. Finally, it is said that Marvel’s fictional island Madripoor, which we saw in X-Men stories, will also be included in the game.
The previously revealed information was as follows:
In leaks earlier this year, it was said that next year or 2025 was targeted for the game. New information also revealed that the company may be heading to 2025. It was also claimed in previous information that the game would be aimed at adults and that the story would take place before Wolverine joined the X-Men.
That’s all we know about Wolverine, which will take place in the same universe as the Spider-Man games. We will see whether the claims are true or not when official information or a trailer comes from Insomniac.
