After GTA 6 Delay, Marvel’s Wolverine for PS5 Confirms Fall 2026 Release
Sony and Insomniac Games have officially reaffirmed the release window for their highly anticipated title, Marvel’s Wolverine, setting its launch for Fall 2026. The confirmation comes right after the surprising delay of GTA 6, which has now left a major gap in the gaming calendar — one that Wolverine seems ready to fill.
According to a report from PushSquare, the studio remains confident in its development timeline, despite internal challenges and the ongoing high standards following the success of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. This suggests that PlayStation 5 owners could be in for one of the console’s biggest exclusives yet.

Insomniac Doubles Down on Quality
The team at Insomniac Games reportedly aims to make Wolverine PS5 a darker, more mature experience compared to its Spider-Man titles. The game will leverage the full power of the PlayStation 5 hardware, including fast SSD streaming, ray tracing, and enhanced DualSense integration.
Insiders claim that the studio is taking advantage of the extra time to refine the game’s combat and narrative depth — areas where players expect the next generation of superhero games to shine. Following GTA 6’s delay, Wolverine’s release now positions it as the headline game for Sony’s 2026 holiday lineup.
Competition and Industry Impact
The shift in the gaming release calendar caused by GTA 6’s delay could dramatically affect upcoming launches. Many developers are now adjusting their timelines to avoid direct competition with Rockstar’s blockbuster. Meanwhile, Sony’s strategy to secure Wolverine for Fall 2026 may prove to be a masterstroke in dominating the high-end gaming market.
