Marvel’s Wolverine launches on PlayStation 5
Marvel’s Wolverine, developed by Insomniac Games in collaboration with Marvel Games, launched on PlayStation 5 on September 15, 2026. The action-adventure title features a mature, linear narrative following Logan through locations such as Canada, Tokyo, and Madripoor.
Critical reception has been mixed, with the game holding a Metacritic score of approximately 77. Reviewers have noted issues with repetitive combat and a more linear structure compared to the previous Spider-Man series. However, player reception on the PlayStation Store has been significantly higher, with some users awarding it a 4.84/5 rating.
Actor Liam McIntyre, who provides the voice and performance capture for Logan, has addressed online criticism regarding his resemblance to the character. Meanwhile, Insomniac has indicated they are actively listening to player feedback, including discussions regarding specific gameplay mechanics like the scent-tracking feature.
