Since that exciting reveal in 2021, there haven't been many details, which has kept people guessing and excited for what's next.

Trailer for Marvel's Wolverine debuted 3 years ago
It's been a long time without updates
The first trailer for Marvel's Wolverine was released in 2021 and gave an exciting look at what Insomniac is doing with the character. Although it was short, the teaser set a serious and gritty tone, suggesting a more mature and possibly violent version of Wolverine's story. The scene in a dark bar, showing the aftermath of a fight, immediately creates a sense of danger and highlights Logan's intense nature. The focus on his famous claws and eerie sound effects created excitement for a gameplay experience that would showcase Wolverine's strength and fierce personality.
While the trailer didn't show any actual gameplay, it did get people very interested in how Insomniac would bring Wolverine's abilities and character to life in a game. The teaser's high-quality visuals and the studio's success with superhero games made many believe that Marvel's Wolverine it would be a mandatory title. Insomnia is known for your merry games like Marvel's Spider-Man, Spyro the Dragon, and Ratchet and Clank. However, this should not make the Wolverine less brutal game.
The trailer clearly shows that the team wants to branch out and be known for more than their tongue-in-cheek humor. Their previous games required lighter gameplay, and this just goes to show that Insomniac knows how to make games with the necessary atmosphere. Since Wolverine's theme is darker, this could mean that Insomniac would be great at making a game for its atmosphere.
Besides the leaks, the Wolverine game didn't have much news
It's been a while since we heard anything
From the first trailer of Marvel's Wolverine was released, there hasn't been much official news about the game. Insomniac Games has been pretty quiet, only sharing a few small updates on its development. While the studio has occasionally mentioned that things are moving forward, but hasn't provided any real information about how the game will be played, what the story will be about, or when it might be released.
The leak itself provided more information, but it was clearly an early build. There was still so much left to do that it felt more like concept videos than actual gameplay. From what has been seen, the combat was very similar Marvel's Spider-Man. However, with changes to the game's development, no one should use the leak to get reliable information about what's coming next. Overall, leaks are just a bad part of the industry.
Still, this leak was all anyone could get from Insomniac Games about Marvel's Wolverine. The studio's silence has left fans wanting more details about what Insomniac plans to do with the iconic character. As a result, the continuous process lack of updates it makes some feel like things aren't going well for the game.
Why 2025 Could Be the Year Marvel's Wolverine Gets a New Trailer
We want more information
Many things suggest that 2025 could be the year Marvel's Wolverine makes a return. With the launch of Marvel's Spider-Man 2Insomniac Games has a great chance to turn its attention to its next big project. Revealing the Wolverine game in 2025 I would enjoy the thrill of Spider-Man 2helping the studio stay relevant and keep players interested.
Typically, AAA games like this take around three to four years to develop, so a 2025 reveal fits in perfectly, showing that the game is probably advanced enough for people to see it. Furthermore, there are other Marvel projectssuch as movies or TV shows, slated to be released around that time, which could create a huge marketing opportunity for both the game and those shows or movies.
Considering all these factors together, it seems like 2025 is the ideal time for Insomniac to reveal the long-awaited Marvel's Wolverine game, which could lead to a release in 2026. Otherwise, this should cause concern for everyone. Essentially, it can show that there are some internal delays, which are normally not good.
