I would be interesting to see Insonmiac go dark and gritty.

[NightmareFarm]

Fuck yeah. Since there is human dismemberment, i'd love if they included something akin to blade mode from Metal Gear Rising as well.

 

[Con-Z-epT]

I need this with a proper current gen implementation.

Timestamped.

 

[AtomicStarving]

 

[TheGodfather07]

Yeah, no shit grubb. This is already known. Stop acting like you saw the game or got new information.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Those lowtier leakers...

Basically just saying what everyone guessed already

That, and Deadpool 3 is slated for 2024 with Jackman reprising his role as Wolverine. So the marketing will all tie together.

 

[Puscifer]

Don't let Grubb see that.

Lol he'll never figure it out, guarantee that. But Grubb is lining up with what I saw him liking on Facebook during the announcement

I didn't realize that. Man, Sony is creating synergies left, right, and center.

• TLOU P1 / TLOU HBO
• Spider-Man 2 / Across the Spider-Verse
• Wolverine / Deadpool x Wolverine

 

[Fuz]

This is amazing. The old Wolerine game was a blast.



Now.
Please no stupid side camera

 

[MiguelItUp]

Really excited about this. Loved Wolverine as a kid. This reminds me, I should check out that Wolverine game Raven developed. Apparently it was pretty solid, and really gory, lol.

And being PS5 only

Hyped

At least until there will quite possibly be a PC release, like they've done previously. To which I'll most likely just double dip, lol.

 

[Saber]

Obviously because Wolwerine is pacifist and his claws aren't made adamantiun and aren't really sharp.

 

[The Fartist]

I will cry if I can scale walls and buildings (Sentinels?) with Wovie's claws. I'm sick and tired of Marvel/superhero shit but this, this, I'm pumped for. Bring it, Insomniac.

Edit: They should do 2099 Wolverine after this one on PS6, I would cry again.

 

[Fuz]

I really don't see wolverine beating tlou2 in sheer realistic violence tbh.

It doesn't need "realistic" violence and I hope it's not got it.

 

[sendit]

Semi open world = meh

M rating and violence = yes

The Witcher 3 is considered semi open world.

 

[Represent.]

I didn't realize that. Man, Sony is creating synergies left, right, and center.

• TLOU P1 / TLOU HBO

• Wolverine / Deadpool x Wolverine

Jim Ryan finally acting smart.

(I would have been doing this decades ago)

 

[GymWolf]

Well, you don't want cartoony looking violence neither in a wolverine game.

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Anyone else lose excitement about rumors as soon as they see Grubb?

 

[Fuz]

 

[The Fartist]

Well, you don't want cartoony looking violence neither in a wolverine game.

Totally agree with you, but we also don't need extreme Faces of Death gore like TLOU

 

[tomato shrub]

It should be fully linear character action, but anything's better than fullblown open world.

 

[Badlucktroll]

i need to play this

 

[Fuz]

Well, you don't want cartoony looking violence neither in a wolverine game.

This is cartoony. Which doesn't necessarily means "for kids".

 

[A.Romero]

The Witcher 3 is considered semi open world.

What? Why?

 

[GymWolf]

This is cartoony. Which doesn't necessarily means "for kids".

I think that was their idea of semi-realism with the hardware limits they had, it doesn't look that cartoony to me, unless we are talking about the exagerate moves he does.

I'm ok with that but with ultra realistic graphic.

 

[Beastclaw Raider]

Insomniac, wolverine, rated M

Good god... this will be brilliant

 

[Pelta88]

Can you imagine Wolverine with the Ragnarok level of quality, performance, and intricate combos?

 

[Fuz]

Well, ripping a guy apart in two or cutting his arm then beating him with it isn't exactly my definition of "realistic".

 

[fermcr]

What kind of sorcery Insomniac have so that they can make/release so many games in a relative short period of time.

Sony really made a great deal when they acquired them.

They really did, for me whenever I see insomiac as the developer, it's a day one purchase. Probably the best developer performance wise for ps5 right now with their different graphic settings and updates as well.

 

[Cre8]

I wonder what other characters will guest appears in Wolverine? Deadpool? Kitty Pryde? Jean Grey? Colossus?

 

[SmokedMeat]

I almost bought a PS5 for this.

 

[R6Rider]

Give us PSVR2 support.

 

[Larxia]

I'll obviously play it but I wish we got a full X-Men game instead of Wolverine, I'm tired of only wolverine getting attention while X-Men as a whole is amazing.

 

[GymWolf]

Then we were talking about different things.

I was talking about the microdetails that make tlou 2 more violent compared to other violent games, a realism in microdetails like the enemies gargling to death (with different recorded garglings), realistic weighty ragdoll, marks for every wounds, realistic non-exagerated wounds etc.

It is somehow realistic to separe a dude in half when you have knives for fingers and super strenght and animal rage like wolverine, but you can show the gore and enemies suffering in a cartoony way or a bleak way like tlou2, i just hope for the second if they want to make an adult story with a serious tone.

Like the violence in the logan movie is different compared to other movies with wolverine.

 

[YCoCg]

Who was developing this, again?

LET ME TELL YOU WHO'S DEVELOPING THIS! IT'S THE GREATEST STUDIO UNDER SONY RIGHT NOW, THAT'S RIGHT, IT'S THE INSOMNIACS HERE TO KNOCK OUT ANOTHER HIT AFTER HIT!​

 

[H . R . 2]

what I am wondering about which surprisingly nobody is talking about is the setting.
I think it will be the deciding factor that will set the tone, the graphics/visual style, and even the score.

I would love the visuals and the music to be either dark/grim or in the same vein as Logan's stylish intro
with a story as simple and personal as GOW

 

[Mibu no ookami]

If successful, Sony will absolutely be making an X-Men game.

Will be difficult to get the gameplay mechanics right here.

 

[Quasicat]

I loved the Wolverine game on PS3/Xbox 360, but the purple blood on the helicopter scene just didn’t make sense compared to all of the other violence in it.

 

[ANDS]

All correct.... except the doughy bit. I've been reading Wolverine and X Men comics for over 30 years, he is absolutely not, and has never been, doughy. If anything he's always been portrayed as so incredibly muscular that it seems odd considering he pretty much just eats salami, smokes, and drinks lol, but hey comics are rad.

Not talking about physicality, just in the perceived "shape" of the character being a bit. . .off to me.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

And being PS5 only

Hyped

This guy dies easily moments later.

 

[March Climber]

gameplay when?!

After Spiderman 2 releases.

 

[Aaron Olive]

Stop fucking sourcing Jeff Gubb!, this is old as fuck.

Looking at the trailer im assuming Alberta. Forest/Lumber/cabin areas.

Not really, everything seems to point towards Madripoor. What's written on the chalkboard behind the bar. is the name of the princess bar. which is a well known location from the comics directly tied to wolverine that's located in madripoor. plus the mixture of asian influence/decorations confirms this. as well as the eye patch on the bar next to logan's arm. which, under a seperate alias wolverine used was and is patches. a alias he uses only when's in madripoor, tho if I remember correctly he used the patches identity when he thought the X-men were dead.

 

[Heisenberg007]

Jim Ryan finally acting smart.

(I would have been doing this decades ago)

To be fair, Jim was on it as soon as he came to power.

He became the SIE boss on April 1, 2019, and set up PlayStation Productions on May 20, 2019, roughly one month after taking charge. He had a plan and started firing on all cylinders right away.

how about that license plate?
and the outfit?

 

[Cyber_hunter026]

how about that license plate?
and the outfit?

Obviously an easter egg, along with what's on the cash register. but it's pretty clear this is the princess bar. plus dark end of street that plays during the trailer, has a specific theme to it. along with the tattoo on the thugs arm may be hinting at.
