Insomniac Games' highly anticipated Marvel's Wolverine is reportedly still on track for its leaked 2026 release window! Despite a massive security breach almost two years ago that exposed a wealth of information, including early builds and release schedules, development continues as planned.
Following the leak, Insomniac confirmed their commitment to Wolverine. However, the subsequent silence fueled speculation and uncertainty among fans. Now, sources indicate the 2026 target remains unchanged.
Venom Spin-Off: Carnage Confirmed as Villain?!
But the news doesn't stop there! The leaked roadmap also included a Venom spin-off, and new details have emerged. Rumor has it that Eddie Brock's Venom will face off against Carnage as the main antagonist. This information aligns with details uncovered in the data breach, although the previously suggested 2025 release date is now considered unlikely.
While Insomniac scrapped planned DLC for Spider-Man 2 centered on villains like Carnage and Beetle, the Venom project appears to be actively in development. The insider information suggests a closer relationship between Eddie Brock and the Venom symbiote than portrayed in recent films, hinting at a unique narrative direction.
What This Means for Insomniac's Marvel Universe
These updates provide a glimpse into the future of Insomniac's expanding Marvel universe. While the data breach was a significant setback, the studio seems to have weathered the storm and is pushing forward with its ambitious plans for both Wolverine and Venom. Fans can anticipate more official announcements in the coming months as development progresses. Stay tuned for more updates!
