Marvel's Wolverine launches September 15, 2026, exclusively on PlayStation 5.
Release date and platforms
The release date is September 15, 2026. A specific unlock time has not been announced. The game is available for wishlist on the PlayStation Store. This is a PS5 exclusive — no PC, Xbox, or other platform release has been announced or is expected. Sony Interactive Entertainment is the publisher; Insomniac Games developed it.
What is Marvel's Wolverine?
Insomniac Games — the studio that made Marvel's Spider-Man (2018) and Marvel's Spider-Man 2 (2023) — is developing this standalone Wolverine game. Like those Spider-Man titles, this is a story-driven, single-player action-adventure set in a self-contained corner of the Marvel universe.
Wolverine is a fundamentally different character than Spider-Man. Where Spider-Man is acrobatic and crowd-controlling, Logan is brutal and close-range. Insomniac has indicated the game is built around that aggression — his berserker nature and his healing factor are core to how combat feels. Beyond that, specific mechanics haven't been detailed publicly.
Story
Specific story details have not been officially revealed. The 2021 teaser showed Logan in a bar in the Philippines, setting a darker, grittier tone than the Spider-Man games. No character list, villain reveal, or narrative summary has been officially published.
Is Marvel's Wolverine on PS Plus?
PS Plus availability is currently unconfirmed. Sony has not announced whether the game will be available through the subscription service at launch or at a later date. Given that Marvel's Spider-Man 2 was not on PS Plus at launch, a similar approach is likely — but nothing is confirmed.
Xbox Game Pass does not apply; this is a PlayStation exclusive.
