What do we know about the story of Insomniac’s Wolverine game?

Obviously, given it’s still very early days yet, plot details remain scarce. However, reports from industry insider Jeff Grubclaim the title is far more adult-orientedthan Insomniac’s Spider-Man game. Specifically, the game is allegedly targeting an M-rating, with a gameplay system that could even feature dismemberment.

According to the same reports, the game will seemingly focus on Wolverine before his time with the X-Men. Though exactly when we pick things up or which other Marvel characters get involved all still remains to be seen for now.
