The first gameplay trailer shows bloody melee combat. Marvel Wolverine is coming to PlayStation 5 on September 15, and during today’s State of Play from Sony, Insomniac Games gave us a first look at how it will play.
The gameplay trailer features Wolverine in his classic yellow and black costume leaping along rooftops, slashing bad guys, riding a motorcycle, and jumping among moving vehicles while dodging bullets. He even teams up with Jean Gray (who looks so much like Jesse from Control that our entire Slack channel thought it was a crossover for a hot second), and overall the combat is enjoyable and bloody.
In this particular mission, Logan pursues a group of mutants who have been kidnapped for nefarious purposes. At certain points, the gameplay trailer hints at Sunset on overdrive in a Wolverine costume – which isn’t a discord, to be clear – but it’s a lot more violent. Comically, one might say.
