Insomniac's new PS5 exclusive Marvel's Wolverine departs from the studio's open-world Spider-Man formula, instead offering a linear action game closer to God of War and Uncharted. The story follows Logan as a reluctant member of the mercenary group Team X, alongside characters like Sabretooth and Mystique, as they investigate mutant disappearances tied to an arms dealer. Combat centers on fast, violent slashing that leans into Wolverine's healing factor and claws.
