Highly anticipated game releases, especially those tied to popular IP like Wolverine, generate massive fan engagement and pre-release buzz. This creates direct opportunities for game pre-orders, platform subscriptions (e.g., PlayStation Plus), and extensive merchandising (collectibles, apparel, accessories). It also underscores the effectiveness of dedicated online events ('State of Play') as a marketing channel for new content reveals.
