Marvel's Wolverine Launches as Sony's Lowest-Scoring First-Party Game at 77
Marvel's Wolverine launched September 15 as a PS5 exclusive from Insomniac Games, the Spider-Man studio. It holds a 77 on Metacritic across 117 outlets, the lowest score for a Sony first-party release this generation, well under Spider-Man (87), Miles Morales (85), and Spider-Man 2 (90). The combat leans on Logan's claws, healing factor, and heavier brutality. Player reception runs hotter, with a 4.83 out of 5 rating on the PlayStation Store and over 92 percent five-star reviews.
