Sony's State of Play this week gave us an extended look at Marvel's Wolverine. Bloody, brutal, and action-packed, Marvel's Wolverine takes that same cinematic approach as Marvel's Spider-Man, another superhero franchise from Insomniac Games, but with much more grit and violence.
Watching the nearly 10 minute gameplay trailer unfold, it's hard not to get hyped for Marvel's Wolverine, which is set to release later this year. Knowing the excitement it would drum up, PlayStation officially opened pre-orders for the game, while also revealing the contents of the Digital Deluxe Edition.
The Standard Edition of Marvel's Wolverine, which is available exclusively for PlayStation 5, will cost $69.99. Pre-ordering will include the following bonuses:
- Early Access Suit: Classic Brown
- Early Access Claws: Reflective Claws
- 1 Additional Technique Point
- 4 PS Avatars
There's also a Digital Deluxe Edition for $79.99, available only through the PlayStation Store. This will include all of the pre-order bonuses plus exclusive suits, claws, and more technique points. The full list of bonuses is as follows:
- Marvel’s Wolverine Digital Game
- All Pre-Order Bonuses
- 5 Exclusive Suits

- Savage
- Age of Apocalypse
- Night Hunt

- 5 Exclusive Claws

- Tapered Claws
- 3 Additional Technique Points
The latest trailer for Marvel's Wolverine wasn't just about the combat itself. There were also a few big surprises, including character reveals and story hints.
One of the trailer's biggest surprises was the appearance of Jean Gray. Insomniac had been relatively quiet about how connected the game would be to the broader X-Men mythos, but now we have confirmation that Logan's story may be tied to mutant affairs on a much larger scale than previously expected. On that note, we also got confirmation that Sabretooth, one of Wolverine's most iconic rivals, will have a role in the game.
For those who missed the event, the full extended gameplay trailer can be found below:
Logan thought he was finished being Wolverine, but the past wasn’t finished with him yet.
Three years after walking out on his team, Wolverine rejoins the mutant task force, Team X, in their darkest hour.
Driven by his fanatical belief in human superiority, Bolivar Trask is kidnapping mutants. Only Wolverine has what it takes to save them.
In his fight for the future, Wolverine must team up with fellow mutants across the globe through locations like Canada, Japan, and the Marvel island nation of Madripoor.
With the fate of humans and mutants hanging in the balance, Logan knows the world needs a hero; however, they’ll have to settle for Wolverine.
Marvel's Wolverine launches exclusively for PlayStation 5 on September 15, 2026. Unfortunately, Sony has reversed its stance on releasing its PS5 exclusives on PC, so for now Sony's console will be the only way to play it.
