Marvel’s Wolverine Goes Gold, Set for September 15 Release After Five-Year Wait

Insomniac Games has announced that Marvel's Wolverine has officially gone gold, meaning the game's release date of September 15 is now locked in with no further delays expected.

Going gold is traditionally considered the final milestone in video game production, signaling that the master copy has been sent for manufacturing. In the era of digital distribution, this step has largely lost its practical significance, but the studio continues to observe the tradition.

In Marvel's Wolverine, players take on the role of Wolverine, one of the most recognizable characters from the X-Men franchise. The project was first unveiled five years ago, but development was delayed as the publisher prioritized other, more commercially promising titles. According to the sources, despite Wolverine's fame, the character is considered somewhat one-dimensional, and it will be interesting to see how the game performs in its first few weeks on the market.
