    Who is Wolverine, and what is the game about?

    James "Logan" Howlett, aka Wolverine is one of Marvel's best-known characters. In Marvel's Wolverine, players experience an all-new original story centered on his search for answers about his past.

    The adventure explores Wolverine's humanity, resilience, and determination while taking players through environments inspired by the Canadian wilderness, the streets of Tokyo, and the jungles of Madripoor, a fictional island nation from the Marvel universe.

    At the center of the experience is Wolverine's distinctive close-range combat. Players can use his signature metal claws, heightened senses, and other abilities in encounters that combine fast melee action and stealth.

    Why play Marvel's Wolverine?

    If you only know of the character, but nothing about his history, Marvel's Wolverine is a great entry point. The game is designed to put you inside a fast-moving cinematic adventure, playing as a powerful but deeply human hero searching for answers about his mysterious past.

    Here's what makes the experience exciting:

    Fight like Wolverine. Get up close to enemies using razor-sharp claws, quick reflexes and extraordinary abilities in fast, visceral combat.

    No previous knowledge of the comics or films are required. The original emotionally charged story introduces Wolverine through his relationships, struggles and search for the truth about his past.

    Feel the action in your hands. The PlayStation 5 DualSense wireless controller uses vibrations and changing trigger resistance to make moments in the game feel more physical and immediate.

    Marvel's Wolverine is an action-adventure built for players who want an exciting story, spectacular locations and the chance to experience what it feels like to become one of Marvel's most legendary characters.
