Marvel’s Wolverine for PS5 Gets First Gameplay (And It’s Very Violent)

Marvel’s Wolverine has been re-revealed with first ever official gameplay after four years of silence. Marvel’s Wolverine has been one of the most anticipated PS5 games since 2021. Insomniac Games shocked gamers when it gave them a one-two punch of the reveal of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and the announcement of Marvel’s Wolverine at the same PlayStation Showcase. Fans were certainly expecting a new Spider-Man game at some point, but a Wolverine game was not on anyone’s bingo cards. However, that was the last game we would see the game officially and fans have grown somewhat impatient without any real news on the project in recent years.

In 2023, Insomniac Games was hacked and unfinished gameplay for Marvel’s Wolverine leaked online in addition to story and casting details about the game. Not only that, but a playable build found its way online as well. This was obviously extremely compromising and damaging for Insomniac which led to speculation that the studio may need to rework the game in order to keep it fresh for audiences. While there’s no indication that actually happened, Marvel’s Wolverine did undergo some changes as its director left the project last fall and was replaced by another Insomniac developer.

Marvel’s Wolverine Reveals First Gameplay

Rumors began to swirl recently that Marvel’s Wolverine would get a new trailer at a State of Play at the end of September and it actually happened. Marvel’s Wolverine got a brand new trailer at PlayStation’s latest State of Play revealing new details about the story, our first actual good look at Wolverine himself, and the action that will drive the game itself. It’s clear that Marvel’s Wolverine is targeting an M-rating as we see lots of blood and gore, which

Marvel’s Wolverine will see Logan searching for answers about his past, leading him to come across a number of iconic Marvel characters including Mystique. It looks like it will be an action-packed and violent adventure filled with big cinematic set pieces. We see glimpses of Wolverine using his claws to slide down tall buildings, using his motorcycle to chase down a target, and then jumping from the bike into traffic.

Ultimately, it looks like Insomniac Games is cooking up something great. The developer teased that we will see more from the game in spring 2026 ahead of Marvel’s Wolverine‘s eventual fall 2026 release. It’s good to see that Wolverine is shaping up so nicely and hopefully, this will give fans something that’s worth the wait next holiday season.
