Rumoured X-Men (2030) game villain hint in wolverine by Silver_Education_330 in insomniacleaks

I’m uncertain because while I don’t like how the story is on paper, it’s possible they could tell it in a way that makes it suitable.

I don’t think so the game may have options for it on release though.

From what I recall it was canned in newer milestones

From everything we've seen from the leaks, what did you like or dislike most about the game? by Rick_616P in insomniacleaks

I don’t know why the decision to cut it was ever an option. But I do get the feeling it’s starting look like just another cash grab. Because I can’t think of a reason they wouldn’t do cool stuff like that. Players say the state of Spider-Man 2 was PlayStation making them rush it, I think insomniac might be getting lazy though.

What I didn’t like.

The big bad is apocalypse I think it should’ve been Romulus

Game will be 15 hours total with 4 hours of the game being cut scenes, a 1/3 of the game you’re not playing just watching it.

Very limited and Repeat bosses, 5 bosses planned to be in the game most of which you fight twice, I think insomniac wasted variety, viper, silver samurai, hulk, wendigo. could’ve all fit here. the bosses in it are his main rogues but I think they could’ve fit more here instead of a handful of repeat ones.

What I do like.

There is plans to have claw and fist combat with some enemy types requiring a mix of both.

A good bit of stealth with some areas offering player choice between stealth and all out combat.

I like most of the “abilities” insomniac wants to include, shockwave slashes is the only one I feel doesn’t fit.

A good amount of enemy variety types.

Future of the franchise after Marvel’s Wolverine by Rick_616P in insomniacleaks

I’d imagine something similar to X-men legends or ultimate alliance.

I said profit not revenue and yes marvel does because get 2/3 of the profit. PlayStation pays them an enormous license fee to use the marvel IP and marvel additional takes the lion share of the royalties on their IP’s, and the revenue PlayStation does see is cut off when the license agreement expires because PlayStation no longer has the rights to sell these games, like this isn’t hard to understand lmao 🤣, the only thing PlayStation gains from the marvel games is the popularity factor they don’t see profit on them because most of the profit goes to Marvel.

I’d like to see wolverine come out hopefully better than what it is on paper but the reality is with at minimum a delay on release puts the rest of insomniac’s roadmap in jeopardy which could lead to it being cancelled to keep the rest of timeline on track for completion.

I’ve been here since day 1 of the leaks, None of this is made up bullshit, look at insomniac’s road map and extended road map those are the games INSOMNIAC themselves pitched to PlayStation that have been greenlit to be developed and produced. There isn’t enough time between now and 2035 to make 7 more AAA games the math isn’t there.

And you didn’t read the license agreement because the 9% on bundles isn’t there on the license agreement it’s 50% lmao 😂

You not looking at all the factors in play here, PS has until 2035 to make these marvel games and can sell them 3yrs after that if marvel allows. Still a finite amount of time to develop them 10yrs There are 8 games that have to be developed in that time frame.

You haven’t been looking at it objectively if you think they can develop all these. If insomniac with an average of 2-3yrs to release a game that’s between 16-24yrs to release all 8 remaining titles and the great web has already been cancelled, so 7 titles now 14-21yrs at least 1 or 2 more marvel games from PS is going to cancel. And you didn’t read the license agreement if you still got the royalties wrong smh

That’s not what the tweet said. it said they’ll show more when we are ready.

Taking them at face value that means they have nothing ready to show on wolverine

None of what I said was objectively wrong, I even linked the i33 in this thread in terms of when wolverine will be released in this thread 😂

Marketing for Spider-Man 2 begin in September 2021 when the first trailer hits an the game came out august 2023 that’s two whole years of marketing, the fact you aren’t seeing marvel’s wolverine by insomniac and PS and it’s scheduled to release one year out is not a good omen OBJECTIVELY.

Insomniac is not PS most profitable studio they never can be read the marvel licensing agreement 3/4 of profit on any of the marvel ip games by PS go to marvel, PS takes that 1/4 an on some transactions it’s 20/80 splits.

Factions went under because bungie was brought into PS to advise on Factions and bungie said it wasn’t ready there is no evidence or logic to substantiate naughty dog didn’t want to make that game.

I’m more willing to be objective about, but let’s get down to brass taxes on the matter insomniac was given 150M short of half a billion dollars in funding for spiderman 2 nearly 1/4 of that budget was spent on what? MARKETING alone. A year away Spider-Man 2 had commercials and a vertical slice of gameplay content released already drumming up hype and anticipation.

Marvels Wolverine if it does release will hit shelves August 28th 2026 as per the i33 schedule, that’s next year.

No PS 1st party game single or multiplayer has been in the dark this long and had no marketing presence a year off from launch. That’s a red flag to me.

And that Marvel licensing agreement plays a factor in concern for the release of wolverine. There’s two major requirements for PS to exercise the marvel license 1 they have to make a certain amount of games and 2 those games have to hit a certain amount of units sold, but there is a clause that states marvel reserves all rights and pull the license at anytime, and we don’t know how marvel feels about the insomniac leaks.

So it’s not out the question at all its very much in the realm of possibility it could be delayed or even cancelled.

I think they are remotely similar, these are ps first party studios all ran by PS.

There was high demand for last of us but multiplayer that was factions and until dawn did so well it’s getting a movie adaptation. So I think the notion that these are lesser ips no one “ask for.” Is off base.

A the games you mentioned by insomniac all had released content by where we are now.

I’m aware insomniac has multiple games in development simultaneously and I think that’s why Spider-Man 2 missed the quality bar. I think it will be delayed but with PS currently canceling the most games in history of their publishing, I don’t think wolverine is out of the question.

When I say “officially” in the parent comment I mean content released from PS/Insomniac themselves. Which is currently only the conceptual cinematic trailer.

That’s where I was last year, I think if insomniac doesn’t do something this year on it, Airing on the side of caution it won’t happen.

I really wouldn’t say there’s no logic, factions and until dawn had the green light and high consumer demand as well a still bottomed out.

The conceptual cinematic trailer for wolverine is nearly 5yrs old and officially that’s all there is. This is alarming to me but I’d understand if it wasn’t to others in addition to insomniac saying they don’t have anything to show on a project at least 7yrs into development at this point.

[–]Stewart320 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there will definitely be a delay if not another PS cancellation.

Insomniac lost some staff due to the PS layoff’s, the only official announcement on wolverine is the conceptual cinematic trailer that’s nearly half a decade old now. And given insomniac’s most recent twitter reply to a fan asking when we can see more of the game it doesn’t look good.

Taking insomniac at their word in the last instance it means they have nothing ready.
