Well, that came out of nowhere. Insomniac Games just tweeted out the release date for Marvel's Wolverine, and it's officially arriving in September. To be exact, the upcoming PS5 action romp is set to arrive on September 15. "Let's cut to the chase," Insomniac Games says on Twitter before promptly dropping the news like it's no big deal. It's great news, of course, but bizarre given that the devs had the perfect opportunity to say exactly this during the massive PlayStation State of Play earlier this month. Well, this way certainly has the surprise factor, anyway – I had to double-check the announcement actually came from the official account. Marvel's Wolverine PS5: Everything we know so far Insomniac dashes Marvel's Wolverine hopes, says more info is coming in spring PlayStation State of Play predictions: 5 games we're expecting to see, from Wolverine to Tomb Raider To be fair, we were warned at the time not to expect anything Wolverine-shaped during the big Sony stream. Before the broadcast, Insomniac Games reiterated its plans to reveal more information in "Spring 2026," but I'll admit the decision to hold fire for just 12 days perplexes me. With this, we also have more of an idea of what the latter half of the year is going to look like when it comes to the game release calendar. Mercifully (for both players and devs alike), Wolverine is nicely spaced out from GTA 6, which is set to arrive on November 19, in theory allowing Insomniac's upcoming game to have more time in the spotlight before Rockstar Games arrives on the scene. It's been a long time coming, after all – the Logan-centric game was first announced in September 2021, so it'll have been over five years by the time it actually arrives. Today, Insomniac seemingly has no new trailer to share (unless you're counting the seven seconds of release date announcement), so there's still plenty to show off before that date comes – we'll just have to watch this space. Marvel wanted the new Wolverine game to bring Logan back in "spectacular and visceral fashion," and Insomniac was "the perfect choice" after the Spider-Man games.
