Marvel's Wolverine fans must not miss the 2026 State of Play event. Not only will the program showcase new gameplay footage, but rumors suggest that pre-orders may begin immediately after.

Insomniac Games' upcoming action-adventure title is the only game revealed ahead of the event. Fans can expect to see the game's combat and some other detailed aspects.

Rumors ahead of this reveal suggest that the physical copy pre-orders will begin after the event on June 2, 2026. Furthermore, the standard edition is expected to cost approximately $69.99, but nothing is official as of yet.

This is in line with the standard cost of most modern AAA games. Therefore, the upcoming PlayStation exclusive will likely be no different. However, the prices of the deluxe and collector's editions remain elusive.

The PlayStation State of Play 2026 is set to go on for longer than 60 minutes, and this is just the beginning. The game will be a PS5 exclusive, which will only expand Sony's catalog of new AAA games.

Those familiar with Marvel's Wolverine may recognize the titular character as Logan himself. The game's plot has not been discussed by the developer in detail. However, in the story's timeline, Logan is already several centuries old.

The game will also feature other known characters, such as the shapeshifting mutant Mystique, as well as Omega Red. The game will also feature perhaps the greatest threat to all Mutants, the Sentinels.

These are massive robots made for the specific purpose of hunting down Mutants. Other iconic X-Men characters may also make an appearance.

What Can Fans Expect from Marvel's Wolverine?

Marvel's Wolverine is being developed by Insomniac Games. The developer is famous for previous Marvel-aligned titles, including Marvel's Spider-Man, Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and Spider-Man 2.

All the games were rather popular. Their movement mechanics as the web-slinging superhero were smooth, the action was satisfying, and the overall plot was also appreciated by fans.

However, a Wolverine story may be somewhat more brutal. The character bearing Adamantium claws is well-known for his unhinged tendencies. He is also one of the most popular X-Men characters from the comics.

Considering their previous record, smooth movement and intentional action may remain integral parts of the game-making process.

Previous Wolverine games have had a varying level of success among fans, with X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009) delivering perhaps the best hack-and-slash action the character has seen in a game.

Insomniac Games has a chance of delivering even better action for the beloved character in the PS5 exclusive title.
