Insider Tease for Marvel’s Wolverine Reveal

According to Twitter user Kurakasis, a trusted insider known for accurate PlayStation leaks, Sony may be preparing to unveil more content from Marvel’s Wolverine soon. In a Twitter post, Kurakasis said:

“From my little digging, it looks like Sony is gearing up to show off some new stuff from Marvel’s Wolverine. It’s hard for me to determine when it’ll happen, but I’m guessing it’ll be this year—either at TGA or at some unannounced, super-secret event.”

While this tease doesn’t give an exact date, it does suggest that PlayStation is planning something significant. Fans could finally see Wolverine in action, potentially by year-end.

Possible Event for the Wolverine Update

With no confirmed events on the horizon, the possibilities for where Marvel’s Wolverine might appear are wide open. Some likely candidates include:

The Game Awards (TGA) – Taking place in December, this event has previously featured major PlayStation reveals.
State of Play – Speculation suggests PlayStation may host another State of Play event in December, coinciding with the company’s 30th anniversary.
Unannounced PlayStation Event – As hinted by Kurakasis, Sony could be planning a top-secret reveal, possibly for Wolverine.

While Wolverine’s return is uncertain, December looks to be a prime time for a new showcase.

Why the Wait? Previous Leaks and Delays

So why has there been a three-year gap since the original announcement? Some leaks suggest the delay may stem from unfinished content and early builds of the game that surfaced online. After a hack targeting Insomniac Games, early gameplay footage leaked, but fans quickly dismissed it as too rough to accurately represent the final product.

The silence from Insomniac Games could be a calculated decision, allowing them to polish the game and avoid releasing incomplete footage. With Marvel’s Wolverine poised to be a flagship title for PlayStation 5, Sony likely wants to ensure that any new content shown reflects the quality fans expect.

What We’ve Seen So Far: Teaser and Screenshots

Since its reveal, Marvel’s Wolverine has had just a single teaser trailer and a couple of screenshots to keep fans’ imaginations running wild. The teaser showed Wolverine seated at a bar, with his iconic claws emerging—hinting at a grittier, darker take on the character.

Despite the minimal content, fans have speculated heavily about the game’s tone, characters, and world. Insomniac Games has remained tight-lipped about key details, including who will voice Wolverine and how closely his appearance will resemble Hugh Jackman’s portrayal from the films. With Jackman’s version being the most iconic, there’s a strong chance the game will lean into that familiar look.
