Developer Insomniac Games revealed on social media that Marvel's Wolverine has gone gold over three weeks ahead of the game's launch. Marvel's Wolverine is the most-anticipated PS5 exclusive game of the year, with its launch coming five years after it was first revealed to the public.
Marvel's Wolverine is a gritty action game that will put players in the perspective of the titular X-Men hero. In Insomniac's latest project, Wolverine will join his Team-X squadmates Mystique and Sabretooth on a mission to defend their fellow mutants from the forces of Bolivar Trask, an anti-mutant industrial figure. Marvel's Wolverine will also pit the titular protagonist against villains such as Omega Red, Lady Deathstrike, and the Sentinels. It remains to be seen what other threats Wolverine will face throughout the game's story.
Although Marvel's Wolverine recently faced waves of negativity on social media, Insomniac Games shared some good news concerning the game's development. Marvel's Wolverine has officially gone gold, meaning that principal development has concluded. Ergo, Marvel's Wolverine is complete from start to finish. Marvel's Wolverine's chief development cycle wrapped up just over three weeks ahead of its September 15 launch. To celebrate the game going gold, Insomniac Games revealed that a cosmetic set of Gold Claws will be available in Marvel's Wolverine as an unlockable item that players can obtain in-game at no added cost.
Insomniac Games did not state how players would be able to obtain Wolverine's Gold Claws, though fans will not have to wait long to find out. The development team will likely use the remaining time ahead of the game's launch to iron out any bugs or issues that crop up. Though patches to fix any bugs are a possibility, physical copies of Marvel's Wolverine will ship in a complete state on Blu-ray discs rather than via a code-in-a-box. Marvel's Wolverine starts at $69.99, with pre-orders now available on the PlayStation Store and at major retailers, such as Amazon and GameStop.
Marvel's Wolverine has also been caught in the crossfire of ongoing discussions concerning Sony's decision to move away from physical game disc production starting in 2028. Sony's announcement subsequently drew waves of criticism and backlash from gamers and developers alike, though Sony has since doubled down on its push toward a digital-only future. While market analysis data has proven that digital games are more profitable than physical copies across the industry, that has not stopped gamers from voicing their support for physical media. Given that Marvel's Wolverine will have a physical release alongside a digital version on the PlayStation Store, it remains to be seen how many players will opt for a physical copy instead.
To coincide with the launch of Marvel's Wolverine, some additional PS5 and PS5 Pro accessories themed around the game will go on sale starting September 15. Some thematic Marvel's Wolverine DualSense wireless controllers and console plates will be available in white and yellow color variants.
