Summary

  • Insomniac Games once again responds to fans pleading for news on Marvel’s Wolverine.
  • The studio says it is “actively working” on Marvel’s Wolverine for PS5 but won’t share news until it is ready to do so.
  • Marvel’s Wolverine was announced in September 2021, with no official news having been shared since.

Insomniac Games, known for creating Marvel’s Spider-Man and Ratchet & Clank, has given a rather underwhelming update on their upcoming project, Marvel’s Wolverine. This much-hyped PlayStation 5 game was initially unveiled in September 2021, but since then, not much information about Marvel’s Wolverine has been disclosed. It appears we might have to wait a bit longer for more details on the project.

Hey there fellow gamers! I’ve been hooked on the incredible creations of Insomniac Games, from the thrilling adventures of Ratchet & Clank and Spyro to the intense Resistance series and the wacky fun of Sunset Overdrive. But let me tell you, it’s their latest take on Spider-Man that’s truly been outstanding since 2004’s Spider-Man 2. Now, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has just hit PC, thanks to Nixxes Software, and everyone’s excited for what’s next from this studio in the Marvel universe.

However, it seems like some of us are growing restless, particularly about Marvel’s Wolverine. Insomniac Games recently shared a rather underwhelming update regarding that project, which has left some fans feeling a bit deflated. Hopefully, we won’t have to wait too much longer for more information on this exciting new project!

Insomniac Games Provides Update on Marvel’s Wolverine

In a tweet, Insomniac Games confirmed they are actively developing Marvel’s Wolverine for PS5. Although this is exciting, they mentioned they would only share updates when ready. They acknowledged that they can’t fulfill every fan request immediately due to timing, resources, and the need to be allowed to disclose information. This isn’t the first time they’ve addressed Wolverine news, having done so back in May 2024, indicating they would share details when appropriate. It appears that the right moment hasn’t come yet, as it’s been almost a year since their last update.

Following nearly three and a half years of no news, fans were growing curious if the game would ever surface. Despite Insomniac remaining tight-lipped about their next major Marvel project since its unveiling in 2021, industry insiders have been providing encouraging updates on Marvel’s Wolverine. Last year, journalist and insider Jeff Grubb mentioned the title, suggesting that Insomniac’s history of creating successful superhero games indicates it will live up to player expectations once it releases. Grubb also hinted at more revelations to come from the studio, but so far these whispers have not materialized.

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but speculate on how the data breach at Insomniac Games in 2023 might have affected their development schedule, though this hasn’t been officially confirmed yet. The unfortunate incident exposed confidential employee details and even leaked sensitive information like the studio’s future plans and a roadmap. What made it even more heartbreaking was the leak of an early build of Marvel’s Wolverine, which certainly didn’t help matters. In response to this cyber attack, Insomniac expressed their disappointment and anger, describing the whole event as highly distressing. Regarding Marvel’s Wolverine, they once again reminded fans that while they value our excitement, official updates about the game will be shared when the time is right.
