I've 100% completed Marvel's Wolverine on the PS5 Pro. Here are my spoiler-free thoughts: ๐Ÿ‘€ ๐Ÿ—ก๏ธ Combat is brutal in the best way. It feels familiar if you've played the Spider-Man games, but it's clearly its own thing: harder, far more visceral & the stagger, barrage & parry loop is so satisfying that you genuinely feel like Wolverine. ๐Ÿ“– The story is very much Logan's; you don't need any X-Men knowledge going in. It's full of emotion & the ending left me satisfied, though it didn't quite hit me the way the first Spider-Man game did. ๐ŸŽญ The cast is excellent across the board. Troy Baker is phenomenal as Nathaniel Essex & @Liam_J_McIntyre is an incredible Wolverine. When I think of Logan, Liam is now the person I see; that says a lot! ๐ŸŽต The soundtrack complements the game incredibly well. I've been humming it since I finished. โœจ Visually stunning & performance in the Performance Pro mode was flawless. I never once noticed anything that wasn't perfectly smooth. ๐Ÿ“ธ Photo mode is industry-leading. It takes their usual formula and elevates it even further (again!). ๐Ÿ” It's more linear than Spider-Man so it isn't quite a jump-in-and-mess-about game like you could with NYC free-roam, but that never bothered me. New Game Plus plus the Nightmare Trials give it real replayability beyond that anyway. โฑ๏ธ Around 20 hours for the story, 25 hours to 100%. Combat did start to feel a little repetitive on my fingers over 2 ten-hour sittings, which kind of checks out, but I just couldn't put the game down! Marvel's Wolverine is one of the best games on PS5 this year, with a combat loop that makes you feel every bit as dangerous as Logan should. Congratulations to @insomniacgames on another fantastic release; the love for this character is obvious in every part of it. Overall: 8/10 ๐Ÿ”ฅ If you liked any of the Spider-Man games, you'll love this. Thank you @PlayStationUK for the early access. ๐Ÿ’™ (#ad). I'll have my usual best settings video out for launch, in addition to a 12-minute 'everything I wish I knew before playing' video.

This game changed my life. It brought me back to Spider-Man, inspired me to be greater and honestly, it's the reason Octorious exists. Thank you @insomniacgames & happy 8 years. It's hard to believe it's been so long!
