So to no one's surprise, God of War Ragnarok and Spider-Man 2 lead the most watched trailers at the PS5 showcase with Wolverine rounding out the top 3






A lot of people seem to be excited for these 3 games.

Wolverine was always the most popular X-Man so that number isn't surprising.

Wolverine was KING of the 90's superhero's, i mean he still is. His own cartoons, like 1000 solo comic series including one of the most popular old man logan, a lot of cross over, his own movies, actions figures etc.

Wolverine is def top 5 most iconic super hero.

Superman
Batman
Spiderman
Hulk
Wolverine

I was never a Wolverine fan but yeah this is a solid list. You could believably say Spider-Man, Batman, then the other three are fighting it out for third place because DC is incompetent and did nothing with Superman for decades.

For a 53 second teaser...Wolverine got...7 million views....?

These numbers are 24 hours later....

I said cot dayum...

Era bubble, meet reality.
Reality, say hi.

Ppl, if you havent, watch the 4K versions. So much better.

And I think all the games in the OP were what I was hyped about the most. Project Eve seemed ok too.

KOTOR and Wolverine were wtf moments.

Would have been 15 million views if it was a Scott Summers game

PlayStation Studios' games are a big deal, no surprises here. Wolverine was the most hype game announcement in all of 2021

Great news for God of War & Forspoken.

As for the Insomniac games, I really wish I could be excited for them. But their toxic work culture, especially regarding how they treat their women, is killing the hype for me.

I'm personally excited but this needs to be mentioned.

People seem to gloss over this when it's a dev they like.

Wolverine is a Beast.
A teaser trailer that tells us almost nothing about the game racking up 7 mil views is impressive indeed. Insomniac will def be the Sony dev with the most units sold this gen (across all games). Their Marvel stuff and Ratchet will sell like hotcakes.

I've basically been singing the X-Men animated show theme tune since the Wolverine teaser so this all checks out.

I don't get why you and others are saying this. It's not like all of those 7 million people knew what the trailer showed before watching it. So what it really shows is how many are curios about a Wolverine game.

God of War is going to be massive. I think the 2018 game sold more than the original trilogy combined and is probably at or over 20 million units by now

A true powerhouse franchise

I do feel like Black Panther has become the modern version of that.

True we don't have other metrics yet. But that's not what irritates me. I am irritated by some people saying a teaser trailer telling us nothing getting so many views is impressive. Like people knew what was shown and clicked on the video despite that.

I am basically saying the success has nothing to do with what was shown and it's all about wolverine - the franchise and obviously PS Studios reputation.

I also think theres a bigger conversation around the practicality of E3 or any big gaming conference for publishers. Sony got these views on their own on a random september weekday. Yeah, i know its sony but there's absolutely nothing to stop microsoft and nintendo from skipping it next year.

I think whats gonna eventually happen is all 3 platform holders are gonna host their own individual e3's from this point on. Kind of like how apple does their one show a year

That depends on if the actual venue returns next year.

I guess they are adding the view counts of multiple trailers on multiple channels? Because on just Playstation's Youtube account the numbers I find are a bit different:

1) Spider-Man: 6.7 million
2) God of War: 4 million
3) Wolverine: 2 million

Seems like it. The Ragnarok trailer has an additional ~5 million views on IGN's channel alone.

Well would be stupid not to, on IGN these are the numbers for the trailers (they uploaded twice for each lol) :

1) Spider-Man 2: 1.3 million + 443k
2) God of War: 3.9 million + 1m
3) Wolverine: 3.7 million + 215k

I honestly think Sony could just release only those 3 games and it would be enough to carry them through the generation.

No, iron Man is more popular than Wolverine.
