Why would GTA6 delay make any difference to Wolverine? It's Wolverine... by Insomniac. The game will undoubtedly sell on name recognition alone. |
There's no concern that Wolverine won't "sell" but that its sales potential will be impacted unnecessarily, especially at launch. All the meanwhile the impact on hardware will more or less be muted by GTA already doing the heavy lifting. There's likely a huge cross over in people would buy Wolverine and GTA6 day one, they're like the epitome of generic blockbuster for casual gamers, so the idea of them launching 1/2 weeks apart seems quite wasteful and I could easily see Sony strategically moving Wolverine out of that window to minimise cannibalisation and to create hardware & platform momentum elsewhere in the year/early next.
Having said all of that I completely imagine Wolverine having a "holiday release"... It's just "fall" which means Sept/Oct is potentially when it is intended to release anyway.
