If there’s one key thing that PlayStation‘s Insomniac Games wants you to take away from the new gameplay footage for its upcoming “Marvel’s Wolverine,” it’s that this video game will be as bloody as promised.

“It’s planting our flag that this is a mature game,” Insomniac Games’ creative director Marcus Smith told Variety. “There was a lot of speculation about, especially Insomniac creating this game, were we going to be able to create that visceral high action that one would expect from a Wolverine game? And the answer is, yeah, absolutely, we’ve done that. We also are creating a storyline that is equally mature, that has more depth and ambiguity and deepness to go along with that. And then I would just throw out that we also understand that some people are squeamish when it comes to blood, and we do have an accessibility option to turn it off and do low-gore paths.”
