PlayStation has sneaked in a nifty little update to celebrate the launch of Insomniac Games’ PS5 exclusive Marvel’s Wolverine. Yesterday, Sony Interactive Entertainment pushed out an update to the PS App that changes its trademark blue icon to a Wolverine-themed one.
PlayStation App update with new Wolverine-themed icon available worldwide on Android and iOS
The new PS App icon is now available worldwide. Simply head over to your regional iOS or Android store and update the app. These changes are usually time-limited and last only a few weeks, so if you want to keep the icon beyond that time frame, pause automatic updates until Sony mandates a PS App update.
Updating the PS App icon now seems to be part of Sony’s marketing and promotion routine, but only reserved for major events. It started with Days of Play 2025, and we briefly saw the icon change to GTA VI-themed colors when the game’s preorders went live.
If I’m not wrong, Wolverine PS5 launch celebration is only the third time Sony has changed the PS App’s icon.
Insomniac’s take on Wolverine will launch on September 15, 2026. Reviews are already out, and while they’re positive overall, this is one of the studio’s lowest-rated games, with a Metacritic score of 78/100.
