Marvel's Wolverine Reaches 20 FPS in New PS5 Emulator Test

Marvel's Wolverine Reaches 20 FPS in New PS5 Emulator Test

Unreal Gaming PC published footage of Marvel's Wolverine on the latest KyTyPS5 build, showing the game's heaviest scenes still struggling despite a higher peak than earlier attempts. The test used Senaxx's bb8f49c build, released on September 30, 2026, and most areas still ran at just 6-9 FPS, which remains too low for comfortable play.

The result marks progress from earlier tests: on September 28, the emulator reportedly managed to open the game's menu at around 2 FPS, then reached videos and gameplay at about 3 FPS the following day. Those tests used different computers, so the results are not directly comparable.

The latest test ran on a PC with an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card. An on-screen overlay indicated that the game could use all of the graphics card's video memory, but the cause of the performance drops remains unclear: it could be a VRAM or CPU bottleneck. The footage showed gameplay, with no major visual issues noted in the report.

Marvel's Wolverine, developed by Insomniac Games, was released exclusively for PlayStation 5 on September 15, 2026. Sony has not announced a PC version, so the emulator test offers a glimpse of the game running on PC, but the low frame rate remains a major obstacle.

What do you think will happen first: a playable Marvel's Wolverine on KyTyPS5 or an official PC version from Sony?
