Insider: Venom Game Still in Development for PlayStation

NateTheHate2, a video game industry insider, posted on X that a standalone Venom game is still in active development for PlayStation. Sony Interactive Entertainment has not confirmed the project and no announcement date has been set.

On X the insider wrote, “Venom is very much still in development upon last check. As to when it’ll be announced, I don’t know.” The comment did not include a release timeline or platform details beyond “PlayStation.”

Earlier leaks and internal documents indicated release plans have changed: Venom was initially expected to arrive before Wolverine, but later reports suggested it would launch after Wolverine. One source speculated a late-2027 release; that timing has not been verified.

Previous reports point to Eddie Brock as the likely protagonist, which would suggest other symbiote hosts such as Flash Thompson may not lead the story. These details remain unconfirmed.

Wolverine is scheduled to launch on PlayStation 5 on September 15, 2026. Insomniac Games has not tied Venom’s development to a specific release window.

Some fans have suggested a 2027 release could coincide with a new PlayStation console, but Sony has not confirmed console plans or exclusivity for Venom.

No publisher or developer has released formal information about the Venom project. Reporting so far is based on insider tips and leaked documents; until Sony or the studio issues an official statement, timelines, platform specifics and narrative elements remain unconfirmed.
