Selected journalists and authors have already received pre-release copies of Marvel's Wolverine. The embargo on publishing reviews will be lifted on September 10 at 6:00 PM Moscow time, while the game's release is scheduled for September 15, 2026.
The early distribution of codes was confirmed by media representatives and Insomniac Games community manager James Stevenson. The developers noted that they wanted to give reviewers enough time to calmly and thoroughly complete the entire game before publishing their materials.
Such an early lifting of the embargo is traditionally seen as a sign of the publisher's confidence in the quality of the project. A similar practice was applied with God of War Ragnarök and other Sony games that received high ratings.
