It’s finally locked in. Marvel’s Wolverine is launching on September 15, 2026, exclusively for the PlayStation 5.
The release date was shared by Insomniac Games and PlayStation across their official social media channels, giving fans a concrete target after years of anticipation.
First announced in 2021, Marvel’s Wolverine is being developed in collaboration with Sony Interactive Entertainment and Marvel Games. The studio is crafting an original story centered on Logan, promising a darker and more brutal tone compared to its Spider-Man titles.
Players can expect savage, close-quarters combat built around Wolverine’s adamantium claws, along with a narrative that explores the character’s violent past. The game is designed exclusively for PS5, leveraging the hardware for cinematic set pieces and fast, ferocious action.
With a firm September 16, 2026 release date now confirmed, the wait for Logan’s next chapter officially has an end in sight.
This is the first major update since the trailer released back in September 2025.
Visceral Combat
Combat looks as savage as fans expect. Wolverine’s adamantium claws slice through foes with fast, fluid techniques. Momentum builds as his berserker rage takes over, turning him into a relentless force on the battlefield.
Dismemberment, brutal takedowns, and close-quarters combat define his style. Wolverine is a reluctant hero, but once the claws come out, there’s no holding back. He doesn’t fight nice. He fights to survive.
The trailer also teased Logan’s wider world. Players will face the elusive Mystique, the monstrous Omega Red, and an army of Reavers. Some characters may help him, others will try to break him.
The footage closes with a prototype of a towering purple robot—an unmistakable nod to the Sentinels. The adventure spans the neon-lit streets of Madripoor, the frozen wilderness of Canada, and the alleys of Tokyo. Each location sets the stage for bloody, destructive action.

Gaming
Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen are coming to the Switch
Both games will be available starting February 27.
Millennials, prepare to have your nostalgia get hit right in the feels. Nintendo has officially announced that Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen are coming to the Switch.
This year, the Pokémon franchise is celebrating its 30th anniversary. Naturally, with Pokémon Day coming up, it’s only right to celebrate the event with something huge. Finally, two of the most prolific titles in the series are coming to a modern console.
Originally released in 2004, Pokémon FireRed and Pokémon LeafGreen were remakes of the original Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue. At the time, the two titles reimagined the older games for the Game Boy Advance. Additionally, they introduced new post-game content set in the Sevii Islands, where Ho-Oh, Lugia, and Deoxys reside in the Kanto region.
Based on the short teaser trailer, the upcoming Switch versions will feature all of both games’ content. It will likely be remastered for the Switch’s larger screen.
To showcase more of the Switch version, Nintendo is hosting a Pokémon Presents on February 27. The brand has not mentioned anything about a potential physical version yet. However, they do promise that both games will be available on the Nintendo eShop as soon as next week’s Pokémon Presents concludes. Each game will cost US$ 19.99.
