Marvel Wolverine Game Sales Surge

Wolverine Sells Near Two Million, Boosts PS5

Marvel's Wolverine sold almost two million copies in its first half-month, beating every new release on the US September chart. The game also posted the highest launch-month dollar sales for any Sony-published title since Helldivers 2 in February 2024, despite a $70 price tag versus Helldivers' $40. Because it launched only halfway through September, its digital and retail sales lifted PS5 hardware dollar revenue by 43 percent year over year, giving Sony its strongest monthly hardware dollar share since May 2025. Physical copies accounted for about 799 thousand of those units, and the title ranked seventh in weekly active users among the top ten US games. As Circana analyst Mat Piscatella put it, Wolverine proved price isn't a barrier when fans bite.
