With Marvel’s Wolverine on the horizon, we can’t help but be excited about slipping into some lovely yellow lycra and getting short, hairy, and angry. If you’re looking to slash through some enemies with everyone’s favourite berserker, we’ve got you covered.
While there aren’t tons of games dedicated solely to Logan, there are plenty of amazing titles featuring him. Here is our definitive top ten list of the best Wolverine video games to play right now.
Look, we know the film wasn’t especially good, but the movie tie-in video game was an absolute banger. It was one of the earliest titles where you could truly rip enemies to shreds in authentic Wolverine style, and the hack-and-slash action still holds up today. It’s a little rough graphically—having originally launched in 2009—but it remains a blast to play.
Marvel’s take on the hero shooter genre is a fantastic time for anyone who doesn’t mind being assaulted by sheer visual scale. Wolverine serves as a furious melee disruptor in the roster. Despite getting up close and personal, he can hold his own very easily thanks to some clever character design choices. It’s an excellent multiplayer game if you want fast-paced competitive action.
A triumphant return to the iconic co-op action RPG style of yore, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order lets you and your team fight through hordes of Marvel baddies. It’s a wonderfully chaotic game that’s perfect for friends and families looking for something a little more “brain-off, fun-up.”
With newer fighting games missing the mark for some fans, now is an amazing time to revisit Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. This legendary crossover fighter pits classic Capcom icons against a huge roster of Marvel heroes, letting them battle to the death in fast-paced 3v3 combat. Grabbing the Ultimate edition nets you loads of content across various game modes—plus the chance to test your skills online.
Marvel’s Midnight Suns is simply brilliant. This tactical turn-based RPG puts you in the boots of an ancient demon slayer teaming up with iconic Marvel characters to fight off supernatural horrors. Beyond its incredibly deep deck-building mechanics, it features an amazing story packed with memorable hero interactions.
This counts, right? Wolverine is a card, after all! While the initial launch hype has settled, playing a few quick rounds of Marvel Snap is still one of the best ways to kill time between daily tasks—or while on the toilet. It’s a simple yet deeply engaging card game where you can lead Logan and other Marvel heroes to victory.
Marvel Cosmic Invasion brings back classic beat ’em up action with retro sensibilities and modern polish. You can choose from fifteen different playable heroes and team up with friends to smash through alien threats. With its authentic arcade feel, it stands out as one of the best modern co-op brawlers available.
Lego Marvel Super Heroes stems from the golden era of Lego gaming—where every title felt familiar yet endlessly entertaining. Even years after its release, the charming visual style hasn’t aged a bit, and the comedic writing is sublime. It’s the ultimate option for gaming with younger players, offering pure good vibes despite the cosmic-level threats.
This retro bundle collects a massive lineup of 90s Marvel classics, letting you step into the shoes of various iconic heroes—Wolverine included. As a recent release, it’s a fantastic retro anthology for anyone looking to experience how comic book games used to feel during the arcade era.
While we haven’t played it yet, early looks are stunning. Given Insomniac Games’ incredible track record with the Marvel’s Spider-Man series, we have high expectations for Logan’s standalone adventure. Set within the same shared universe as Spider-Man, it promises a rich narrative payoff for fans following Insomniac’s Marvel universe.
