Insomniac Games provided the first extended look at Marvel's Wolverine during the latest State of Play presentation. The PS5 exclusive focuses on a linear adventure centered on Logan without the X-Men.
Developers confirmed the game is not open-world. Game director Mike Daly said the team aimed for a high-octane linear single-player experience with varied missions and areas. Creative director Marcus Smith stated that the X-Men do not exist in this story. Mutants face threats from a cybernetic militia called the Reavers, led by Bolivar Trask, while Logan joins Team X alongside characters like Sabretooth. Jean Grey and Mystique appear as allies with team-up abilities in combat and stealth. Sabretooth offers a more competitive dynamic during fights. Wolverine remains the sole playable character and features a rage meter for healing and special techniques. The title includes accessibility options to adjust violence levels. Marvel's Wolverine is due for release exclusively on PlayStation 5 on 15th September.
