Insomniac appears to have secured a semi-exclusive arrangement with Marvel to use the X-Men in its games, according to an internal document detailing the X-Men license terms.
What appears to be a seperate, now-outdated roadmap for Insomniac Games showed multiple X-Men games coming through 2033.
Insomniac had already teased a standalone Wolverine game, which is supposedly slated for a 2026 release, but it appears to have grander plans for Marvel’s mutants.
There is a carve-out that X-Men characters can appear in “multi-family Marvel games (e.g., Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy),” and that Marvel “retains rights to children’s games and certain X-Men games from the 1990s,” but the X-Men license appears to have been effectively locked down by Insomniac.
