Insomniac Games has released update 1.002.000 for Marvel’s Wolverine, prioritizing technical performance on PlayStation 5 and the PS5 Pro. Released on October 1, 2026, the update’s primary feature is the default activation of Quiddity Super Resolution (QSSR) to enhance image quality across both console versions.

QSSR and Technical Enhancements

The most significant change in this patch is the implementation of QSSR (Quiddity Super Resolution) as the default upscaling solution. By enabling this by default, the game aims to provide a sharper image and more stable frame rates, particularly for players on the PS5 Pro hardware. This follows the previous Update 1.001.006 and serves to further optimize the game’s presentation for high-resolution displays.

According to a report by Push Square, this update ensures that the base PlayStation 5 also benefits from the new tech, providing a more consistent visual experience across the entire console family.

Stability and Progression Fixes

Update 1.002.000 addresses several critical stability issues that affected a small percentage of the player base. These refinements include:

• Resolution of various crash scenarios to improve overall system reliability.
• Fixes for progression-related bugs that could prevent players from advancing through specific story beats.
• Correction of “Out-of-Bounds” issues where Logan could unintentionally leave the playable environment.
• General visual polish and corrections for Photo Mode to ensure captured images render accurately.

Accessibility Improvements

Insomniac has expanded the game’s suite of accessibility options, refining how features interact with the gameplay environment. These updates are categorized into three primary functional groups:

Navigation and Gameplay

• Navigation Assist: Improvements to pathfinding and guidance markers for smoother exploration.
• Lock-On Functionality: Refined targeting logic to ensure the camera and combat focus remain on the intended enemies.

User Interface and Visuals

• High Contrast Behavior: Adjustments to how high-contrast modes highlight interactable objects and enemies, ensuring better visibility for low-vision players.
• Localization: Fixes for text and audio across all supported languages to ensure clarity in every region.

Screen Reading

• Screen Reader Performance: Improved descriptive accuracy and timing for the Screen Reader, ensuring that UI elements and menu changes are communicated effectively.

For players still encountering specific visual or performance hitches, ComicBook.com notes that this update serves as a foundation for ongoing support as the developer continues to monitor post-launch performance data.
