Marvel’s Wolverine game is coming surprisingly soon. On Tuesday, Sony revealed a September release date, marking a launch almost exactly five years after it was first announced in 2021.
The game is set to land on Sept. 15, according to a post on PlayStation’s X account. It included a link to the PSN Store page for the PS5 version, although there is only an option to wishlist the game so far.
Developed by Insomniac Games, Marvel’s Wolverine was kept under wraps for years following its announcement. We finally got the full reveal during a State of Play last September.
No price appears on the game’s PSN Store page, but it’s likely to retail for $70 like other recent AAA games. While no special editions have been confirmed, if there are different editions, one (or more) may be priced higher due to extra in-game content or other extras.
As of now, yes, it is. The game might make the jump to PC later, as other PlayStation exclusives have, such as The Last of Us, God of War and Marvel’s Spider-Man.
As revealed last September, the game will follow Logan as he seeks answers to mysteries about his past. He’ll have to journey across the globe from the Canadian wilderness to the fictional island nation of Madripoor and the streets of Tokyo. Logan will also face some of his biggest rivals, such as Omega Red, Mystique and the mutant-hunting Sentinels.
Unlike Insomniac Games’ other superhero series, Marvel’s Spider-Man, the developer made it clear that a game about Wolverine would have to include a lot of blood. In fact, the developer created its own blood rendering tech so that when Wolverine violently slashes and stabs his enemies with his claws, there’s blood everywhere.
