Read details on the game below:
An all-new take on the iconic character, based on Marvel comics.
From Insomniac Games, the developers of the critically acclaimed Marvel’s Spider-Man franchise, comes Marvel’s Wolverine.
As he searches for answers about his past, Wolverine will do whatever it takes—unleashing brutal claw combat, violent rage and relentless determination—to cut through the mystery of the man he used to be.
Developed in collaboration with Marvel Games and Sony Interactive Entertainment.
The Ultimate Wolverine Fantasy
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.
Iconic Characters
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.
A Globe-Spanning Thriller
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.

Smaller game but still a release by Sony.
MLB The Show 26. Just because it is a yearly and multiplatform release, does not mean it should not count as a Sony published game.
I don't have much hopes for Marathon but the other three look amazing. I'm not really a multiplayer guy though so Marathon may be good for multiplayer fans.
Marathon is great. I think it will surprise a lot of people with how well it does.
I actually love the artstyle, a shame there is no meaningful single player content there to build the world as there was with halo

5 years from announcement to launch.
As much as it can frustrate me how close Nintendo often keeps things to the chest, I'll take 6 months-2 years from announcement to launch versus 3-7 years or longer.
This should've been announced around or after Spider-Man 2 launched.
It seems to be a Marvel thing. Many of their games appear to get announced very early. Blade got announced right away too.
or disney thing. most star wars games have gotten announced the moment they began development and gone MIA for the next 5 years.
Weirdest release date reveal ever. lol

Maybe was just to show, we launch ahead far enough of GTA6. I am site shareholders appreciate that.
