Gameplay

Wolverine can use his healing factor to get more health. He can gain upgrades by clawing enemies.

Development

Ryan Reynolds refused to voice Wade Wilson in the game due to how unhappy Wade turned out in the movie. He was replaced by Steve Blum.

Reception

The game has had positive signals. Some say it is better than the movie due to the graphic violence and more faithful source material. James Mangold, director of both The Wolverine and Logan used this as an inspiration for the next two Wolverine movies.
