Insomniac’s Wolverine Prioritizes Gore and Body Hair Over Open-World Freedom
Marvel’s Wolverine launches on PS5 September 15, featuring a linear, combat-focused design that emphasizes visceral gore, dynamic suit damage, and detailed body hair. While critics praise the brutal efficiency of Logan’s claws and the performance of Liam McIntyre, reviews are mixed due to repetitive mechanics, a convoluted second-half narrative, and the absence of open-world exploration. The game scores a 77 on Metacritic, marking it as Sony’s lowest-rated PS5-era title, though it remains a technically impressive entry in Insomniac’s Marvel lineup.
