20 Most Anticipated Video Games Of 2026

Insomniac

Marvel's Wolverine PlayStation 5 Release Date: TBD, 2026

Marvel's Wolverine was first announced more than four years ago, but following a devastating ransomware attack in December 2023, developer Insomniac Games has kept their head down and only revealed the first gameplay this past month.

Yet considering the enormous success Insomniac has enjoyed with their Spider-Man games, why expect any different with Wolverine? 

From what we've seen so far, this is every bit the visually stunning, fluidly cinematic superhero blockbuster you'd hope for, with another Aussie actor following in Hugh Jackman's sizable shoes to play Wolverine - this time Spartacus star Liam McIntyre.

While narrative specifics are still up in the air, we know that Wolverine will be a self-contained story within Insomniac's existing Marvel universe, and will feature prominent X-Men characters Mystique and Omega Red.

Anyone concerned that Insomniac might sanitise Wolverine's ultra-violent tendencies as a result can also rest easy - the reveal trailer confirms beyond any doubt that this is going to be an absolute gore-fest.
