Both of these games proved successful and it was no surprise that she continued her story with Insomniac Games.Marvel’s Wolverinedoesn’t yet have a set PS5 release date, but with her departure, fans are worried that the development has hit a wall.

For context,Marvel’sWolverinewas officially announced in September 2021 during the PlayStation Showcase event, alongsideMarvel’s Spider-Man 2. While we have witnessed the eponymous success ofSpider-Man 2, theWolverinegame’s future is seemingly thin and hanging by a thread.

Another fan simply added that he thinks the game is going to be a big bust.  Moreover, one user’s thoughts are that Insomniac is moving away from Marvel IP and has realized that new superhero action games are a mistake.

Some fans think the the game is going into development hell, considering how long has it been since it was announced and the departure of the main story developer.

Furthermore, fans aren’t shy from conspiracy theories about Jean Grey’s model for the game leak,suggesting there is something bigger in questionthan a simple departure.

While many are concerned about the bleak future forMarvel’sWolverinewhich is another setback for PS5 this year, there are many who think the main story and art are already finished and Mary is just moving on to a new project.

I don’t know why some people are going crazy lolThis could very well mean the narrative has long been done. You don’t need them all the way through.Its also the co-lead for the narrative, the associate narrative director

She has revealed that she has joined Project Orion at CDPR, which is a codename for the Cyberpunk 2077 sequel.

Until Insomniac comes forward with more details on the upcoming Marvel action-adventure video game, fans will only continue with their theories.
