A PlayStation Store listing in Latin America suggests Marvel’s Wolverine may launch in Q3 2026, earlier than its stated Fall release window.
Insomniac Games: "Let's cut to the chase: Marvel's Wolverine launches September 15, 2026."
It's about to get real. Wolverine and GTA6 will skyrocket ps5 sales like crazy. I better be fighting sabretooth multiple times.
Definitely 2 huge system sellers especially with no PC release for either game PS5 pro will be the place to play.
There's a lot to look forward to.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "If 2025 has taught us anything it's that the games you look forward to don't always end up as your big winners, due in part to only three games from last year's shortlist actually releasing and in other part to some big sleeper hits stepping up to the plate. But, of course, that won't stop us from looking forward just the same. Here are the most promising titles of 2026, that we know of."
Only one I’m interested in is Wolverine, that will be a day one purchase. All the others will be had during sales after already significant price reductions have happened.
This list is very short. I am not sure I would put Saros on the list because Returnal is a very niche title. This is a bullet hell game. Those games have their audience, but they are not for everyone, and I would never recommend that game to anyone unless I know they love those types of games.
My most anticipated games are:
GTA 6
Forza Horizon 6
Fable
007 First Light
Wolverine
I don't own a Switch 2, so no Nintendo games are on my list, and I am also keeping an eye on Halo CE remake, Pragmata, Invinsible vs, Nioh 3 and a few others.
I know Resident Evil Requiem is missing from my list, but that is because I am behind in the Resident Evil story. I will need to play through RE 7 and Village at some point. Otherwise, it would be on my list.
-"I am not sure I would put Saros on the list because Returnal is a very niche title."
That's the thing: these five finalists are a result of a 50/50 voting share between VGChartz's community & staff. Returnal may qualify as a niche title overall, but quite popular to the users of this site.
Thats interesting. I think a September release is very believable. Phantom Blade Zero is September 8th so I would guess Wolverine is end of September. BlazBlue Entropy Effect X is this week. Soros is April. Crimson Dessert/Marathon is March. Halo is apparently summer. That leaves you know who in November and hopefully Tokom by December. For the down months I will be catching up on the Legend of Heros games. A truly stacked year for games.
Honestly, as much space they can put between themselves and GTAVI will maximize their results.
After GTAVI releases, the following few months will be pretty tough for any release. That game is basically Thanos
I feel like there are only two choices for this and virtually every other projected Q4 release: move up your release date, or delay to 2027. Regardless of how you personally feel about GTA VI, it's financial malpractice to do anything except get out of its way.
So excited! A sure day 1 for me!
their best course of action is to be the AAA game people buy and play before GTA 6. That will put them in a great position and even win some GOTY awards.
