Logan Will Have to Wait, But Fans Are Hyped for the Bloody Comeback
Claws sheathed for now: Insomniac Games has poured cold water on hopes for a Marvel’s Wolverine (or Marvel: Wolverine in some regions) trailer at tomorrow’s PlayStation State of Play (February 12, 2026). Responding to a fan query on X, the studio confirmed: “spring 2026” for the next update, likely tying into a late-May/early-June showcase ahead of Summer Game Fest. Announced in 2021 with a bloody tease, the PS5 exclusive (PC later) has been radio-silent since, building insane hype amid Spider-Man 2‘s 11M sales. Rumors peg a Q3 2026 launch (July-Sept), front-running GTA 6‘s fall window, perfect for Logan’s rampage. Until then, sharpen those adamantium blades; spring’s the season for slashing.
Insomniac’s Cryptic Tease: “Spring 2026” Means No State of Play Spotlight
Insomniac’s X reply was blunt: When asked “when more info,” they dropped “spring 2026”, dashing dreams of a State of Play shadow drop. GamesRadar called it a “dash of hopes,” but it’s strategic: Post-Spider-Man 3 (2027?), Wolverine slots as a 2026 tentpole. Leaks via MP1st (2025) align with FY2026 (April 2026-March 2027), possibly September to dodge GTA6’s November behemoth. X exploded: “Spring 2026 Wolverine drop? I’m booking therapy” (@shinobi602, 8K likes).
Tomorrow’s State of Play: What to Expect (Minus Logan)
No Wolverine, but the 40-minute show (rumored 7 PM PT) packs heat:
| Highlight | Details |
|---|---|
| Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls | Leaked roster reveal, new fighters? |
| Saros | April 20 launch trailer. |
| Marathon | Open beta date? (March 5 full release). |
| RE: Requiem | Final trailer pre-Feb 27 drop. |
| Others | Switch 2 ports, third-party surprises. |
Wolverine: The Bloody Wait Pays Off?
Since 2021’s gore-soaked tease, Wolverine promises Spider-Man-level spectacle: brutal melee, regenerating rage, and a standalone tale (no Avengers tie-in). Hack leaks (2023) showed pre-alpha combat; 2026 fits Sony’s Marvel push (Venom 2027?). Front-running GTA6 makes sense, Logan’s no GTA clone, but peak sales window.
Fans? Patient but feral: “Spring 2026 Wolverine? Worth the wait, claws > cars” (Reddit r/WolverineGame).
