Marvel's Wolverine PS5: Everything you need to know
Insomniac Games is developing Marvel's Wolverine, a PlayStation 5 exclusive, promising a mature, character-driven narrative centered on James "Logan" Howlett. While a release date remains unconfirmed, industry speculation suggests 2026 or later, despite active development. The game will feature an original story drawing from Wolverine's comic book mythology, with Madripoor as a key location. Marvel's Wolverine is a highly anticipated action-adventure game that has yet to be released. The video game is being developed by Insomniac Games and will be published by Sony Interactive Entertainment exclusively for PlayStation 5. This standalone title shows how the Marvel universe has expanded, especially after the success of its Spider-Man series. Additionally, the developers have promised to deliver a masterpiece of all time with a mature, character-driven story that will center around the history of James "Logan" Howlett, better known as Wolverine. As of now there is not much information available about the game, but there are a few official announcements made by the developers and some analysis from the teasers. Marvel's Wolverine - PlayStation Showcase 2021: Announcement Teaser Trailer | PS5 What is the release date of the Wolverine PS5 game? As of August 2025, Marvel's Wolverine does not have a confirmed release date or even a specific release window. The developers first announced the game back in September 2021, and it was described as being in "very early development" at that time. However, the recent development indicates that the production of the game is ramping up, and there is also a shift of key team members from Spider-Man 2 to this project. There was also an official statement made by Insomniac Games in the month of April 2025 that reaffirmed that active development is underway but that news will be shared only when the studio is ready. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Weather Tomorrow havadurumu Learn More Undo The industry assumptions, which were potentially fuelled by the unfortunate 2023 data breach, suggest that a release is unlikely before 2026. Hopes remain that a release window might be announced at a future event like Gamescom 2025. What is the storyline of Marvel's Wolverine? Marvel's Wolverine will remain an original, self-contained narrative that will purely run from the character's extensive comic book mythology. From the recent trailer release, we get to know that Madripoor will be a key location of the game. The narrative of the story is expected to have a "mature tone" and will be focused on Logan's past, with widespread speculation that the infamous Weapon X program—where his skeleton was bonded with indestructible adamantium—will be the central plot of the story. Image via Insomniac Games All confirmed characters in Marvel's Wolverine As of now there is no official confirmation upon the characters of the game, and the only character we know is Wolverine himself, James Howlett. However, the 2023 ransomware attack on Insomniac Games has led to the unintended leak of numerous development assets, which likely revealed several other characters slated to appear. Players can expect a roster of characters from Logan's history, which includes both his allies and iconic villains. Marvel's Wolverine: Expected prices, editions, and pre-order details The official pricing and edition details for Marvel's Wolverine are yet to be announced by Sony. But based on the standard pricing model for first-party AAA PS5 titles, the base game is expected to retail at approximately $69.99 / $99.99 CAD . Also, fans can expect a Digital Deluxe or Collector's Edition, which will potentially include: Bonus cosmetic items. An artbook. A soundtrack. Also for now some retailers have already listed placeholder pages for the game, allowing fans to register interest for pre-orders, but these pages carry clear disclaimers that all details are subject to change and that no release date is confirmed.

Your movie snack order has a genre bias
Your movie snack order has a genre bias At a late-night screening of Mission Impossible last month, there was a long queue for F&B for the 11 pm show. Those in the cinema business say that's the thing about certain genres - they come with higher F&B orders. As per the Multiplex Association of India, this summer saw 80-90% occupancy at cinemas, which also meant much higher F&B sales. But here's what F&B experts at movies notice after observing binge-eating at movies- Moviegoers don't eat the same during every movie and they say that cinema snack cravings indeed change with the genre. While it may not be true for everyone. But most moviegoers prefer placing long orders for a film that doesn't require intense viewing. In fact, according to a study in the US by a ticket platform - most F&B items are sold during action and family entertainment movies. Viewers and exhibitors tell us about this much less discussed behaviour of moviegoers. 'Action movies get most popcorn sold' Action movies are popcorn movies indeed. Raj Bansal, veteran exhibitor and cinema business analyst says,'Action films, comedy films and family entertainment or Hollywood films like Marvel or superhero genre movies are among the films which get most F&B orders as it is also about the ritual of popcorn and food with the movie that people follow.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Various Pricing Options for Hospital Equipment in Belgium (Learn More) Hospital Equipment | Search ads Undo Shreyansh Sharma, a moviegoer in his 20s shares,'Of course it is about the ritual and also about the the fun in watching an action movie without popcorn. We have mostly ordered a lot of food in movies like Top Gun, War, Jawan, Mission Impossible and recently F1. Without popcorn and pizza these films are indeed not as enjoyable.' 'Comedy and family movies mean the F&B orders will keep coming' At the movies, what you eat often is decided by what you're watching. Exhibitor Yogesh Raizada says,'It's no maths actually. From our F&B orders, insights from concession counters etc we know as a matter of fact that certain genres like family movies, action movies, comedy movies where either families are coming together with kids or friend groups have come to enjoy a movie together more food gets ordered and a larger variety as well. F&B sales indeed go up with good entertaining movies.' Faizal Khan, a moviegoer shares,'I watched Andaz Apna Apna during its re-release, and we had already ordered multiple times - Comedy movies indeed brings out the worst kind of eating - mindless. It's so funny because you're enjoying and ordering and eating like no one's watching - because everyone is too busy laughing. We often take unlimited popcorn refill offers only in comedy movies and at a recent rom-com (Materialist) I even got it filled thrice. ' Yogesh Raizada adds,'But it's not that romantic movies are a deterrent to F&B sale. Order could be slightly on the lower side.' 'Horror, films with gory scenes or scenes which fill one with disgust comparatively set a lower benchmark for cinema snacks' Some films indeed turn snacks into props. Ushers agree that in most horror movie shows fans prefer not to buy not only because they won't be able to finish but also because they want an immersive experience which doesn't happen with stacked trays. "There have been films where I bought something and the food remains untouched," says Kamya Singh, a moviegoer in her 30s. She shares,'I went for a show of Companion this year with a tub of popcorn and left with the same tub - When you're watching a horror movie, any sound can scare you. I had also ordered a veg wrap and every time I would open it mid-scene someone would shush me. I didn't know it was a kind of horror movie so I ordered food. If you are watching a psychological thriller and someone is eating even three rows away, that sound really makes noise in the silence. Plus people do not order during horror movies, mostly because most people can't eat during a horror movie.' Pratik Chandra, a moviegoer in his 40s shares,'We went for Bloodline show some time back and I cautioned my friend to not order because I knew that we won't be able to finish and he laughed it off and every time he would try to eat something gross will happen on screen and he would not be able to finish.' He adds,'At least with certain genres like horror and movies about grief one is ready and you know that you must not order any food because it will be a waste. But sometimes films surprise you with very disgusting is a puke sequence in the Triangle of Sadness and we had ordered chocolate ice cream post interval. The order arrived a couple of minutes before that scene and that entire sequence was like 15 minutes and after it got over we lost our appetite as well.
