You ready, bub? Marvel’s Wolverine to take spotlight in massive upcoming State of Play

Sony’s big summer 2026 State of Play is officially confirmed, and it’s sounding like it’ll be a hefty one for PS5 gamers. Clocking in at “more than 60 minutes,” this State of Play will kick off on June 2 with a deep dive on Marvel’s Wolverine from Insomniac Games ahead of its launch on Sept. 15, likely including gameplay and more details that have yet to be revealed since the game re-emerged last year.
