Insomniac Games continues to make waves with its Marvel adaptations, and recent announcements suggest that their success is far from over. With the upcoming Marvel’s Wolverine confirmed alongside leaked information regarding potential Venom and X-Men titles, the developer is set to deliver another thrilling experience following the successful releases of Marvel’s Spider-Man, Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and Spider-Man 2. Marvel’s Wolverine is expected to feature a third-person action gameplay style that will further enrich the interconnected universe established by Insomniac’s previous Marvel titles.
Although official information about the game remains sparse, various leaks have emerged since its initial announcement in 2021. These leaks hint at key components of the game, including its cast, storyline, and mechanics. Recent revelations indicate that players may have the chance to wear a classic Wolverine suit that is gaining popularity: the iconic yellow and brown ensemble.
Rising Popularity of the Classic Wolverine Suit
Potential Suits for Marvel’s Wolverine
It is almost a certainty that Marvel’s Wolverine will feature a diverse selection of costumes for players to unlock. The unlockable outfits in Insomniac’s Spider-Man series were fan favorites, the costumes not only honoring key films and comic book moments but also allowing players to personalize their gameplay. Leveraging this successful model in Marvel’s Wolverine seems only logical with Wolverine’s extensive wardrobe history.
Recent leaks from Reddit have indicated that several of Wolverine’s alternate suits are expected in the game. Among these are a classic blue and yellow suit, a variant in black and yellow, and two distinct versions of the brown and yellow suit. Although these leaks are derived from an earlier game build and await official confirmation, the iconic status of these costumes suggests that at least some will likely appear in the finalized version.

The Legacy of Wolverine’s Brown and Yellow Suit
The brown and yellow costume is especially significant to many fans, mirroring a trend within modern Marvel storytelling. This outfit first emerged in the 1980 comic, Uncanny X-Men #139, and served as Wolverine’s primary costume throughout the 1980s and early 1990s. It adorned some of Marvel’s most memorable comic covers, including Incredible Hulk (Volume 2) #340 and Wolverine (Volume 1) #1. However, it has often been overshadowed by the character’s more prominent blue and yellow variant.
Despite this, the brown and yellow design has recuperated its spotlight in recent years. It featured prominently in the Krakoan story arc of X-Men comics and made appearances in projects like X-Men ’97, Deadpool & Wolverine, and even Fortnite, where it was represented as ‘Peelverine.’ The upcoming inclusion of this iconic suit in Marvel’s Wolverine could signify not just nostalgia but also a potential resurgence in its popularity.
Looking Ahead: The Brown and Yellow Suit’s Future
While Wolverine’s blue and yellow colors remain iconic, Marvel appears committed to spotlighting the brown and yellow variant. This refreshed focus on the character’s less flamboyant ensemble aligns with Wolverine’s darker narrative tones. Its next appearances, especially within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) or as unique skins in games, will be highly anticipated by fans looking for a departure from traditional presentations of the character.
