Marvel’s Wolverine director “pretty used to” criticism as Spider-Man taught Insomniac you can make a “great game” and some fans will still “find stuff to complain about”

GamesRadar+ · 4 hours ago

The director of Insomniac's upcoming Marvel's Wolverine has said he is "pretty used to" criticism, pointing to the studio's experience with its Spider-Man games as proof that even a well-received title will still draw complaints from some fans. The comments suggest Insomniac is bracing for scrutiny as anticipation builds for its next major superhero release, while signalling confidence that critical acclaim doesn't guarantee universal praise from the player base.

The director drew a direct comparison to Marvel's Spider-Man, which was widely praised as a "great game" yet still attracted fans who found aspects to criticise, framing this as an inevitable part of releasing a high-profile licensed title. The remarks come as Marvel's Wolverine remains in development at Insomniac Games, with the studio drawing on lessons learned from its Spider-Man series to manage expectations ahead of the new game's eventual release.
