Additionally, gameplay footage, concept art, and the cast for the Wolverine game were revealed, featuring actors like Liam McIntyre as Wolverine, Troy Baker as Sinister, and Noga Wind as Leech. It's also confirmed that a Sony and Marvel partnership will bring multiple X-Men titles to PlayStation platforms, with Wolverine spearheading the lineup.

It's a real bummer to see Insomniac hit with such a gnarly hack, especially with so much hype around that Wolverine title and future Marvel-related projects—just goes to show that no secret's safe in the gaming world. But I've gotta say, those leaks have me kinda stoked; Liam McIntyre as Wolverine could be seriously epic, even though I wish we'd gotten the reveal the way Insomniac intended.

Ah, the double-edged sword of leaks; they quench our thirst for info, but at what cost Insomniac's got an exciting roster on the horizon, but this cyber-heist's a stark reminder that even titans of code need a digital Wolverine's claws for security.

Man, the leak hitting Insomniac Games is a total bummer—it's like peeking at your Christmas presents in November It's crazy exciting to see what's in the pipeline, but I can't help but feel for the devs who wanted to surprise us with their hard work on their own terms.🎮🔒 #InsomniacLeak #RespectTheDevProcess
