Wolverine has been the face of the X-Men franchise for the past two decades thanks to the stellar performance of Hugh Jackman. The character is getting the love and attention he deserves with the latest film and the community is eager to see him in gaming.
It was only a matter of time before the iconic hero would be adapted into a video game. Sony Interactive Entertainment was lucky enough to have one of its first-party studios take the help. Despite all the controversies behind the scenes, the game developers gave the fans a promising update about the project.
Marvel’s Wolverine Is Making Great Progress According to the Game Developers
![The gaming community is excited to see what is in store for this new Marvel project.](https://fwmedia.fandomwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/22110801/marvels-wolverine-1-1024x576.png)
Insomniac Games has proven to be one of the greatest game developers to adapt a superhero project. The developers profoundly care about these characters and the story they are trying to tell and take any inspiration outside the game industry like referencing two emotional feature-length films for the end of Marvel’s Spider-Man that resonated well with the gaming community.
Fans are optimistic that this new project will be made with the same effort and care. Game development and quality assurance can take a toll and the game developers will put in years to perfect it which is one of the downsides of modern gaming, the developers announced Marvel’s Wolverine in September 2021 and no updates have been shared, until now.
Going good!

The developers responded to a fan asking about the development of the upcoming project and the brief answer was positive. Perhaps the studio has made good progress after all the problems after the major breach in security where gameplay footage of the upcoming game leaked and plans for expansions in Marvel’s Spider-Man franchise.
It would make sense for the developer to take time with a high-profile character and give him the best video game adventure they can offer. The studio has set the bar high and has given the gaming community the golden standard of a great superhero game after previous successful projects.
The Patience of the Gaming Community for Marvel’s Wolverine Will Be Worth It

It is easy to forget that the game takes place within the same universe as Marvel’s Spider-Man, perhaps the developers are still figuring out how to have these different heroes and characters co-exist in the same world without necessarily having to bump into each other. Shared universes have their benefits and disadvantages, maybe a potential crossover is on the table.
Fans have expectations for this project and the developers are doing everything to deliver a compelling story. Fans anticipate this project will be made in the same vein as previous Spider-Man games and will be original while honoring the past.
Marvel Games did not make a mistake partnering with Sony for this new and exciting shared universe. Games under the PlayStation Studios banner are prime examples of greatness and quality gaming and fans need to be less skeptical about the final result.
The answer may be brief and did not give any details but it is what it is. The gaming community will have to take the studios’ word for it.
