Summary
WhenMarvel ’s Wolverinewas announced back in September 2021 and was confirmed to be a part of Insomniac ’s Marvel Universe alongside theMarvel ’s Spider - Mangames , it was n’t too long before people started speculate about what other Marvel characters Logan could break away into on his escapade . After all , theMarvel ’s wanderer - Mangames , while primarily solo level that focus on Peter Parker and Miles Morales , had deal of Easter eggs for characters such as the Avengers , Daredevil , Dr. Strange , Black Panther , and more , so it seemed inevitable thatMarvel ’s Wolverinewould have nods to other mutants , most probable the X - Men .
Full revealing here , I have read the Insomniac documents onMarvel ’s Wolverinethat were shared online following the cyberattack on the studio last year . In the past tense , I have written about the fact that while there have been area I have offer some critique on , I ’ve enjoyed Insomniac ’s games in the past times , and Idon’t condone the hackand feel dark for everyone for those who were personally impacted by the security department rift of personal stave document as well .
However , it is part of my job to cover or at least be mindful of these kind of events as much as it can frustrate me too , when I ’d much rather see a secret plan the way a studio apartment think me to . After all , in my experience , a lot of us have into writing about games because we are rooter first and foremost , and that ’s why we often have so many opinions about them . Therefore , unfortunately , I do know which characters are plan to be inMarvel ’s Wolverineas of December 2023 , but I also know a lot can be changed , tot , or tweaked in seven months , particularly when the studio has yet to furnish any official footage or news show surrounding the game since .

Fear not , I will not be bollix which characters will be appearing inMarvel ’s Wolverinein this article .
The Marvel ’s Wolverine leaks show a slightly dissimilar word picture of the character than what I was have a bun in the oven from the reveal trailer .
You’ve Read The Title, You Know What I’m Going To Say
The Merc With A Mouth Needs To Stay Out Of Marvel’s Wolverine For Now
The betting odds are that if you ’ve clicked on this article , it ’s because you ’ve say the headline - otherwise , I’mveryconfused as to how you get here - and , therefore , probably remember I ’m pass away to hate on Deadpool or something . So before I start , I need to make it very exonerated that I have no subject with the eccentric . As a fry who started scan cartoon strip in the ' 90s , I raise up being aware of Deadpool even though I did n’t start study those comics until I was a piece old , probably shortly after his first gamingappearance inX - Men Legends 2 : Rise of Apocalypsewhen I was in my teens , and am very glad that as a character he is now lastly interpret more mainstream success through the pic . I was there on curtain raising night for all three film and had playfulness watching each one .
However , I know how easy it is for studio to follow style , and if there ’s something successful and gamy profile , such as a major megahit , there ’s always the worry that someone will go , " Well , that ferment for them , and they ’re making lots of money , so it ’s bound to work for us ! " I do n’t call back this will happen with Insomniac , astheMarvel Spider - Mangames have largely done their own thing outside of asmall crossover moment with theSpider - Versemovies , but those were n’t too disruptive . Deadpool , on the other mitt , practically live to be turbulent with his 4th wall disruption and more chaotic nature in most cases .
TheDeadpoolgame had a lot of X - Men cameo , include Wolverine , but because it was framed through the lens of Deadpool ’s zaniness and insanity , it was easier to work them off as straight - laced characters in comedic position bouncing off Deadpool ’s humor . Marvel ’s Wolverine ’s reveal trailer , however , has already set up a flavor that was extremely beseem a grittier , solo Wolverine adventure , and adopt - up announcements regarding thehiring ofSpec Ops : The Linewriter Walt D. Williamsto compose the game ’s story confirmed it would be aiming chiefly for a more " mature tone . "
Marvel’s Wolverine is the next entry in Insomniac Games' cultivated Marvel universe after Marvel’s Spider-Man and Miles Morales. Players will sharpen their claws and step into the world of the short-tempered, regenerative Logan in an unknown storyline that engages players in brutal action combat worthy of the legendary X-Men member’s name.
Therefore , I sense that while Marvel Studios’Deadpool & Wolverinemovie has been successful- and I for certain had a blast watching it as someone who grew up with the pre - MCU movies -adding Deadpool to theMarvel ’s Wolverinegame , even as a cameo , would be a mistake as he would most probable slew with the tone too much . instead , if Insomniac opt to have a more serious version of the character , this would likely receive rebound from those more accustomed to him being heavy comedic - even if he can have extremely serious and emotional instant as a part , especially in the earlier comics or stories involving his daughter and other loved ones . Either manner , there does n’t seem like a direction in which everyone wins .
Led by Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman at the top of their superhero game , Deadpool & Wolverine is an absurd flak of a Marvel multiverse joyride .
Insomniac Has Proven It Doesn’t Need Lots Of Cameos In Its Marvel Universe
But It Can Still Nod To Other Characters Through Its Worldbuilding
At this degree , Insomniac has proven that it does n’t need major cameos in its Marvel Universe floor and has done a effective job at humanity - construction through Easter eggs andcollectibles such as Peter ’s backpacksin the firstMarvel ’s Spider - Mangame- although I did find it a bit odd that there ’s no sign of the Avengers inMarvel ’s Spider - Man 2when an exotic invasion is happening in the urban center in which Avengers Tower is settle as for sure that seems like a threat they should be getting involved with … or S.H.I.E.L.D at the very least like inWeb of Shadows . I would n’t have any issue withMarvel ’s Wolverinereferencing Deadpool in this way to pay off respect to the fanbase who love seeing Wolverine and Deadpool ’s squad - ups and interactions .
I also would n’t have an issue if Insomniac did a crosswalk down the lineafter setting up more of its universein which Deadpool appears , as the direction would n’t be on tell a fledged Wolverine news report , and it could be its own thing . After all , Deadpool as a character is practically made to be in gaming with his readiness of skills , so it only seems veracious he should show up again in a game at some head … Just not right now .
While there has n’t been any official word from Insomniac aboutMarvel ’s Wolverinefor quite some metre , hopefully , this will change shortly , as it will be coming up three years since the game ’s announcement in September . While the leaks are out there for those who have require to see peck of what the game has to offer - or at least , what was plan up until December 2023 - it would be nice to see a right cinematic trailer or a full gameplay sequence as Insomniac intended it to be check , whether that reveal any of the other more surprising patronise cast additions or not .
