Marvel’s Wolverine was originally revealed during the 2021 PlayStation Showcase with a short teaser trailer. The brief clip of Logan sitting at a bar, claws extended, was enough to send everyone into a frenzy.

But since then, there haven’t really been many official updates on the game, aside from development confirmations and the unfortunate leaks that surfaced during the 2023 Insomniac breach.

That’s why it came as a surprise when, about an hour ago, Insomniac Games posted on X (formerly Twitter) to officially reveal the game’s release date. After years of waiting and speculation, fans finally know when they’ll get to step into Wolverine’s boots.

When Does Marvel’s Wolverine Release?

Insomniac Games has confirmed that Marvel’s Wolverine will release on September 15, 2026. Rumors about a September launch had been circulating earlier this month, but the developer has now made it official.

The announcement was accompanied by fresh details and a brand-new trailer, offering another look at Logan’s upcoming adventure. More importantly, the confirmation finally gives the project a clear timeline after years of uncertainty.

And with the release date now locked in, it’s likely we’ll start seeing more official updates and reveals as the countdown to launch begins.

What We Know About Marvel’s Wolverine So Far

Concrete story details are still being kept under wraps, but Insomniac has previously indicated that Marvel’s Wolverine will lean into a darker and more mature tone. The game is expected to follow Logan as he confronts his past while traveling across different locations.

Combat appears to be a major focus. From the footage shown so far, Wolverine’s claws will not be holding back, suggesting a more brutal, close-quarters fighting style compared to Insomniac’s Spider-Man titles. The game will also feature characters from the broader X-Men universe, although the full lineup has yet to be revealed.

Marvel’s Wolverine Is a PS5 Exclusive

It’s not much of a surprise, but Marvel’s Wolverine will launch exclusively on the PlayStation 5. Insomniac has maintained a close relationship with Sony, and its recent Marvel projects have all been tied to PlayStation platforms.

That said, given Sony’s recent pattern of bringing first-party titles to PC after their initial console launch, there is a strong possibility that Marvel’s Wolverine could receive a PC port sometime after its PS5 release. Nothing has been confirmed on that front yet, but it wouldn’t be unusual based on how other PlayStation exclusives have been handled.
