Insomniac Games

What Insomniac Games is

Insomniac Games is a game developer with offices in Burbank, California, and Durham, North Carolina. The studio describes itself as digital-first, with staff working from its Burbank home base, remotely across the United States and Canada, or in a hybrid arrangement. Its own site states that the studio values behind its games were established over more than thirty years of history, and that its game timeline covers that same span. Since 2019 the studio has been part of Sony Interactive Entertainment. Its current release is Marvel's Wolverine, an original story made with Marvel Games and sold as a PlayStation 5 title.

How the studio joined PlayStation

On August 19, 2019, Sony Interactive Entertainment announced that it had entered into definitive agreements to acquire Insomniac Games in its entirety. The announcement stated that after closing, the studio would join SIE Worldwide Studios as the fourteenth studio in that group, and that day-to-day operations were expected to be run by the existing management team together with SIE Worldwide Studios San Mateo Studio.

Sony Interactive Entertainment did not disclose financial terms of the transaction. The studio's founder and chief executive, Ted Price, was quoted in the announcement saying that joining the group would give the studio greater opportunities to carry out its vision. The press release also described a working relationship between the two companies spanning more than twenty years before the deal.

Marvel's Wolverine

Marvel's Wolverine is an action-adventure game for PlayStation 5 developed by Insomniac Games. Sony Interactive Entertainment's product page describes it as an original story made in collaboration with Marvel Games, following Logan as he rejoins a mutant task force and travels through locations including Canada, Japan and Madripoor. The page credits the game as created and developed by Insomniac Games, Inc.

PlayStation Blog published a developer discussion ahead of launch and dated the release to September 15. The game is sold in standard and Digital Deluxe editions on the PlayStation Store, with the deluxe version adding exclusive suits, claws and in-game points. Insomniac's own games page lists Marvel's Wolverine as a featured title with a link to its PlayStation storefront page.

Studio culture and public communication

Insomniac publishes studio information through its own website rather than through a separate corporate portal. The site explains its vision and mission, lists open roles, hosts a community page and links to official social channels including Discord, Instagram, X, Bluesky, Twitch and YouTube. Player-facing technical help runs through a separate support portal operated on Zendesk. The studio's blog post introducing the redesigned site in 2025 links the community section, careers information and support as the three player-facing areas of the site. It also points readers to the games timeline for the studio's back catalogue, which the post describes as covering more than thirty years.

The studio states its vision and mission on its own site as creating games that have a positive and lasting influence on people's lives, and presents that mission as one of the values it has settled on over its history. Community management runs through an official community page where the studio features player creations, and the site lists the studio's official channels so players can tell official accounts apart from unofficial ones. Careers information, including benefits and working arrangements, is published on a separate page.
