There are two big games starring Wolverine coming out this year. Of course, there’s his solo game coming from Insomniac. And in addition to his starring role in that one, he’s on the roster in Arc System Works’ fighter Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls. If there’s one thing Marvel loves, it’s brand synergy, and as such, both studios are putting costumes based on the other’s version of Wolverine into their games. Seeing the Tōkon suit in Insomniac’s game finally put the “Is Logan short enough in Wolverine?” debate to rest, because that is a short king.
News of this cross-pollination comes from the Marvel’s Wolverine: Deep Cuts panel at San Diego Comic Con, where Insomniac talked about the upcoming action game, showed a new trailer for it, and also revealed concept art for the Tōkon and Wolverine suit swap. While we haven’t seen either of them in-game yet, there’s enough here to get a sense of what they’ll look like. The Tōkon one that Insomniac is adding to its game appears to be cel-shaded to match the style of Arc System Works’ fighter, so I guess he’ll look a bit out of place in the photorealistic world. I will probably not be wearing it when I play through Wolverine, but one thing I am happy to see is that Logan’s proportions in it quiet the concerns I’ve had that he might be portrayed as a man tall enough to reach the top shelf. This one’s for us, 5’5”-and-unders!
Some of the shots we see of him with Jean Grey in the story trailer also make it clear that my guy is barely able to ride a roller coaster.

The Tōkon take on Insomniac’s suit is a bit harder to get a grasp on at the moment, as all we have is art of the character on a white background. It looks good, though. It’ll come to the fighter after its August 6 launch in a September 1 update.
🚨🚨🚨 ALSO! Marvel's Wolverine's Battle Reborn suit is coming to MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls on September 1!
