Marvel Tokon: Fighting Soulssurprised a lot of gamers who tuned into June 4’s Sony State of Play. The Marvel-inspired fighting title is an exciting addition to the genre, but the confirmation ofMarvel Tokon: Fighting Soulsalso raises a lot of questions about the rest of Marvel’s gaming roster.
BeyondMarvel Tokon: Fighting Souls,Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydrais also set for a 2026 launch, and there’s a very real chance that even more Marvel games are on next year’s release calendar.Marvel Tokon: Fighting Soulslooks great, but it also wouldn’t be surprising if its reveal left a lot of Marvel fans with a pang of disappointment. The game itself is a welcome inclusion to the growing Marvel games roster, but it makes the absence ofMarvel’s Wolverineeven more apparent.
Marvel’s Wolverine Not Being at Sony’s State of Play is a Sore Spot
Insomniac’s Next Marvel Adaptation Has Been Kept in the Dark
So far, the only look gamers have gotten atMarvel’s Wolverinewas due to the unfortunate leaks that plagued Insomniac back in 2023. These notorious leaks revealed gameplay, the game’s setting, and even plot points, and since then, Insomniac hasn’t revealed any official details beyond what was revealed in the invasive company breach. There arehigh expectations forMarvel’s Wolverine, so it makes perfect sense as to why Insomniac would want to keep details as locked away as possible, especially after the leaks.
There is even the real possibility that Insomniac went back to the drawing board after the past leaks to keep players surprised, but it’s unclear. Afterthe success ofMarvel’s Spider-Man, Insomniac’s second attempt at adapting a beloved Marvel character brings forth even more hype, but the lack of news can also be disheartening.

We’ll share news about the game when we are ready to share it. That will always be our answer.” This may not be as exciting asa gameplay reveal forMarvel’s Wolverine, but it at least serves as a small promise that the game is on the way.
