PlayStation and Insomniac have announced that Marvel’s Wolverine will officially release for PlayStation 5 on September 15. New details about the game will surface later in the Spring.
Marvel’s Wolverine features a new story based on the beloved mutant, set in the same universe as Marvel’s Spider-Man. It stars Liam McIntyre as Wolverine. Additionally, the game will feature classic characters like Mystique and Omega Red. The end of the first trailer teased that a Sentinel, the mutant-hunting robots created by Bolivar Trask, will also play a role.

The PlayStation Store describes Marvel’s Wolverine as follows:
Marvel’s Wolverine is built on Insomniac Games staples like fast, fluid, and ferocious combat; exhilarating, action-packed set pieces; robust accessibility features; and a gripping story that taps into the core tenets of one of the most compelling comic book characters of all time.
The game will explore Logan’s signature spin on heroism – which is much darker and more brutal than you might expect from Insomniac. Independence is often the way of Wolverine, although he’ll encounter familiar faces on his journey, like the elusive Mystique and the brutish Omega Red. Some will fight alongside Logan against all odds, while others will unleash all-out attacks, such as the Reavers, an enemy faction that will keep our hero’s instincts on edge.
In this original story, Wolverine is on the hunt to uncover the secrets of a dark past that keeps eluding him. His search for answers will send him on perilous excursions to exotic locales, including the island nation of Madripoor, the frosted wilderness of Canada and the narrow city streets of Tokyo – all potential battlegrounds for fierce, bloody, destructive action.
