Logan fans have been clamouring for a new video game featuring the iconic mutant for many years, and back in 2021, we got the news that Insomniac (the studio behind the acclaimed Spider-Man games) was in the process of developing Marvel's Wolverine.

Aside from a brief announcement teaser and a few rumors (see below), updates have been few and far between, but we may finally get our first official look at some gameplay footage in a full trailer during PlayStation's next State of Play event later this month.

Though we don't have many details, Insider Gaming reports that Insomniac Games’ Wolverine is “almost certainly” going to be showcased at the event.

"If the game doesn’t appear at State of Play, then the trailer will undoubtedly be released in the next few months, with The Game Awards being the next likely candidate."

The Wolverine game was hit with a major setback after a ransomware attack in December 2023, with employee information and a significant amount of footage leaking online. The hack is believed to have resulted in some changes, although we're still not sure how extensive.

"We want everyone to enjoy the games we develop as intended and as our players deserve," Insomniac said in a statement about the leak. "However, like Logan...Insomniac is resilient. Marvel's Wolverine continues as planned. The game is in early production and will no doubt greatly evolve throughout development, as do all our plans. While we appreciate everyone's enthusiasm, we will share official information about Marvel's Wolverine when the time is right. On behalf of everyone at Insomniac, thank you for your ongoing support during this challenging time."

A previous report claimed that Wolverine will have a "hard" M-rating, and while it "probably won't be full open-world" like the Spider-Man games, it will most likely have "open sections of a world similar to other, major Sony games."

There have been Wolverine-centric games in the past (some of 'em not half bad), but this will mark the first time the character has headlined his own title in many years, so there's a lot of excitement to see what Insomniac has in store.

Marvel's Wolverine will most likely be released as a PlayStation 5 exclusive, but that's yet to be confirmed. Hopefully, we'll have some more official updates to share soon.

Marvel's Wolverine does not have a release date, but is believed to be on track to hit shelves at some point next year.

@SteviesRightFoo - I mean this is a rumor and it was announced like 4 years ago it seems. If the rumors are true that means marketing is starting up and it will most likely be released sometime next spring or summer.

It now take 5 times longer to make games that are only marginally better than they were 15 years ago

@Ryguy88 - agreed but unless you look solely for graphics, they aren't better at all

@SteviesRightFoo - yeah great point. I think we've passed the point where graphics arent even impressive anymore. All they do now is bog down the gameplay with worse frame rates

@Ryguy88 - I've been sticking to older games and remasters on steam for a long time now

We haven't had a good Wolverine game since Origins. Pretty stoked to see this.

I loved playing the X-men origins Wolverine video game. It was the best part of them making that awful movie.
This game looks pretty similar with better graphics. I’ll be playing it until I reach that one part of the game I get stuck on then I’ll go back to playing Battlefield 6.
