Will Insomniac still be busy until 2034 after *Marvel’s Wolverine* gets its release date?

When I opened this message on the subway, my first reaction was: Insomniac’s schedule is insanely packed. For a relatively casual player like me, hearing that one studio might have Marvel games lined up all the way to 2034 feels like scheduling your entire TV watchlist ten years in advance—exciting, but also a little exhausting.

First, let’s be clear: the core information this time comes from leaks and rumors. It started in late 2023, when Sony-owned Insomniac Games—the studio everyone knows as Insomniac—was hit by a major cyberattack, and its development roadmap for nearly the next ten years was exposed soon after. So this timeline is worth looking at, but it shouldn’t be treated as set in stone just yet.

At the moment, the only title that can truly be considered confirmed is Marvel’s Wolverine. What we know is that it will officially launch on September 15, and that’s the most reliable card on the table right now. As for what comes after, according to a roundup by X user @ursRockrider based on recent leaks, the lineup could be Marvel’s Venom in 2028, Marvel’s Spider-Man 3 in 2031, and Marvel’s X-Men in 2034.

Once you lay out that list, the pattern becomes pretty obvious. Insomniac seems to be slowly stitching together a long-term Marvel content universe built around several hugely popular characters. First, Marvel’s Wolverine holds the spotlight, then Venom could lean into a darker tone, and later Marvel’s Spider-Man 3 and X-Men would expand the whole slate even further. In terms of pacing, it feels a lot like a platform building a long-running serialized franchise.

What’s especially worth noting in this leak isn’t just the number of game titles—it’s how long the timeline really is. If this information turns out to be broadly accurate, then Insomniac is about to enter an incredibly busy phase, and it will likely also be laying the groundwork for the PS6 generation well in advance. Put simply: plant the trees now, and let the next generation of consoles harvest the fruit later.

That said, from the perspective of an ordinary player, I actually want to throw a little cold water on the hype. The farther out a schedule stretches, the more variables come with it. Projects can be delayed, titles can change, and even development priorities can shift. The best mindset right now is probably to treat Marvel’s Wolverine as the near-term focus, and put Marvel’s Venom, Marvel’s Spider-Man 3, and Marvel’s X-Men on the wishlist for now—without getting too emotionally invested too early.

There’s one more thing: judging from the player community, what excites people most isn’t really the “ten-year roadmap” itself, but the fact that Insomniac is finally making the Marvel lineup bigger and bigger. For hardcore players, that means universe expansion. For commuters like me, the priority is much simpler: as long as the visuals are top-tier, the presentation feels smooth, and the pacing doesn’t drag, that’s already more than enough. After all, not everyone wants to study complex systems—lots of people just want to jump into a game after work and have fun for half an hour.

So I’d take this news as more of a signal. Insomniac’s ambition is no longer just to make one or two blockbuster hits—it wants to turn Marvel into a long-term mainline strategy. As for whether that plan can really stay on track all the way to 2034, we’ll have to wait and see what the official word says next. For now, all eyes are on September 15: if Marvel’s Wolverine really delivers satisfying combat, then this long list of future titles will suddenly feel a whole lot more convincing.
