We could be getting a new look at Marvel's Wolverine from Insomniac before the end of the year. According to a claim by known insider Kurakasis, Sony and Insomniac are "gearing up" to show fans more from Wolverine soon.

Rumor and speculation that a developer might show a game somewhere. Newsworthy!

 

[kiphalfton]

Wat's been shown looks like crap.

Maybe better to keep it under wraps until closer to release.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

I mean.... they have to eventually.

 

[lh032]

please dont tell me they have those err......gameplay sections again.

 

[Robb]

I look forward to seeing it. I actually thought quite a bit of the leaked stuff looked pretty cool. Fingers crossed.

 

[FoxMcChief]

Haven't we seen enough?

 

[Stu_Hart]

The leaked stuff looked bad and unfinished, obviously, so this will be the first time we see it presented properly by the devs themselves.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Wasn't it unveiled like 4 years ago? I'd hope they would be showing something.

 

[Thebonehead]

I'm all in for Wokeverine day 1

 

[IDKFA]

December 3 is my bet.

 

[Gaiff]

I thought they'd do something like an action/stealth game similar to Arkham Asylum, but it seems we're getting yet another open world.

 

[Moses85]

We already saw enough.. so please

 

[kevboard]

lol... I would love to see less of it tbh.

if it didn't drastically change in concept from the leaked build, I really have no interest in it.

What are they supposed to to with a character like that? No web swinging, no gadgets, no net shots, no tying up enemies, actually also no kicking and highflying action.

not making a damn open world game would be a start lol...

 

[YOU PC BRO?!]

I can't be the only one thinking an open world concept is a bad fit for a wolverine game. Also, that tired, haggard, mannish looking Jean Grey we saw in the leaks looked truly awful.

no forced jean grey sections , no lgbtq and feminism agenda and none of this type of writing

 

[CompleteGlobalSaturation]

SBI were heavily involved in this game so suspect it will be have a creatively bankrupt script and general direction.

I won't buy the game no matter how good the reviews are however. Will probably "acquire" on pc if it ever gets released.

Wolverine will discover that the real enemy was his masculinity. Embracing his feminine side with the help of ugly girlboss will fix the situation.

What's been shows was the reveal CGI trailer.

Please tell me you don't mean the unauthorized pre-alpha clips that leaked. Every single game would look like shit if stuff like that leaked.

 

[StueyDuck]

gearing up to "show" wolverine... for modern audiences

 

[Thief1987]

Don't bother, no one cares

 

[tommib]

After SM2, I'm beyond done with Marvel Insomniac. This will be a recycling of all their recent games. It's a recipe that sells buck loads.

Wish nothing bad for this team but I'm done.

 

[Mr Reasonable]

Wat's been shown looks like crap.

Nothing has been shown though, leaks aren't shown, we don't see things that early in development probably for that reason - it's not very inspiring.

I agree that wat has been seen looks fairly meh though.

 

[Calverz]

I've already seen enough and have decided its not for me. Looks very similar to Spiderman which wasn't my jam.

 

[N0S]

Easiest avoid ever. Such a shame.

 

[Jibran#one]

Like their games or not but insomniac is probably the best studio this gen with consistent output of games
Spiderman remaster , ratchet , Spiderman 2.
And now wolverine

 

[DenchDeckard]

no forced jean grey sections , no lgbtq and feminism agenda and none of this type of writing

This fight!. Peter Parker ranting apologising for not appreciating her as a woman etc was fucking awful. What a shit show.

 

[GymWolf]

This fight!. Peter Parker ranting apologising for not appreciating her as a woman etc was fucking awful. What a shit show.

I expect a moment in the game where logan has to fight jim grey for some bullshit reason and the fight is gonna be very similar to that absolute turd of a boss.

Followed by EA Sports with Fifa 20, Fifa 21, Fifa 22, Fifa 23.

And now EA FC 24 and EA FC 25.

Fuck you Marvel i will never forgive what you did with Firaxis Games, i could be playing XCOM 3 right now, instead we got some superhero shit.

And don't make me talk about the Guardians of the Galaxy instead of a Deus Ex

 

[Lions Gate]

SBI bullshit. No thanks, fuck off insomniac

 

[Putonahappyface]

My interest in anything related to Sucker Punch has been severely dwindled due to them being infiltrated by SBI consultants.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

 

[EN250]

It's gonna be awful, those gameplay sections were awful and no amount of polishing will change having to use Jean Karen Grey girl bossing for half of the game

Good thing idgaf about superhero stuff anymore or I'd be pissed

 

[Sharius]

Lmao, they can't even sell me on spiderman 2

 

[saintjules]

I'm sure you'll survive!

I dunno, I liked what they have shown so far, sure, it's just CGI, but I liked it

[Physiognomonics]

Bring that sweat baby claws on !

 

[Cakeboxer]

I think he means the leaked alpha? material where it looks like yet another Batman freeflow combat system with claw spamming + detective mode.

 

[Bojji]

They already "showed" too much.

It's reportedly hub world not open. Bloodborne gameplay mechanic where it gives players a window to retrieve health by attacking enemies fits the character perfectly. Real time healing your wounds sounds epic

Also, we all know why this sub wants this game to fail, and it has nothing to do whether the game is good or not

 

[midnightAI]

Oh, you mean footage that is not supposed to be shown to public because it's in an alpha state and so is not representative in any way what the final game will contain content or quality wise? That footage?

(Let's wait until we see actual footage at least before making judgements, I mean, we may see actual footage and it still looks like crap but at least it's then judged fairly)

Exactly, that's why i said Alpha.

 

[midnightAI]

Sorry, wasn't getting at you, I was more responding to the original post rather than your reply, my original post was being a bit pedantic, I knew already that it was being judged off the leaked alpha footage, which is rather dumb if you ask me.

 

[StereoVsn]

Yep, my expectations for this game are extremely low. And I bet Jean will be bitching at Logan about his toxic masculinity all the way through.
