Activision has confirmed that the upcoming Deadpool game will include a famous mutant, in the form of Wolverine, although his actual role is unclear.

After a series of less than successful X-Men games, Activision tasked High Moon Studios with creating a game based on Deadpool, the infamous Merc with a Mouth.

After hearing that plenty of major and smaller mutants will appear in the game, Activision has now confirmed that Wolverine will also appear in the new title.

The announcement, via VG247, is unclear about what role Wolverine will play in the story but, considering he and Deadpool were never really on the best of terms, you can be sure that sparks will fly when Deadpool's katana and Wolverine's claws clash.

The Deadpool game is out on June 25 in North America, and June 28 in Europe and the rest of the world for PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.
