Marvel’s Wolverine Guide | How to Unlock All Claws

Marvel’s Wolverine features 27 different claw designs that let you customize Logan’s signature weapons. You unlock most claws by crafting specific suits or completing Nightmare Door challenges, while five additional designs are exclusive to the Digital Deluxe Edition. Claws are purely cosmetic and do not change Wolverine’s combat abilities or stats.

How to Unlock Claws

Claw designs are unlocked in several ways throughout Marvel’s Wolverine. The easiest method is crafting certain suits, as many outfits automatically unlock their associated claw design.

Other claws require completing Nightmare Door Gauntlets with specific medal ranks. There are also claw designs tied to collectibles and the Digital Deluxe Edition.

Digital Deluxe Edition Claws

The Digital Deluxe Edition adds five exclusive claw designs to Wolverine’s collection. You can't unlock these through standard gameplay.

• Smooth-Edged Claws — Unlocked with the Incredible suit.
• Tapered Claws — Unlocked with the New Leather suit.

Complete Nightmare Door Challenges

Several of Wolverine’s more unusual claw designs are tied to Nightmare Door Gauntlets. These challenges require you to earn specific medal ranks, making them some of the more demanding cosmetic unlocks.

The three Gauntlets are particularly important because their rewards include the Diamond, Flat-Edged, Gold, Charred Bone, and Techno-Organic Claws. Nightmare Trials also provide AP and other rewards, making them useful for progression beyond cosmetic customization.

Collect Whisky Bottles

The Scarlet Claws are tied to exploration rather than suit crafting. You need to collect all 20 Whisky Bottles scattered throughout the game to unlock this claw design.

This makes the Scarlet Claws a good reason to explore optional areas instead of focusing exclusively on the main story.

Mix Claws With Different Suits

You can equip Wolverine’s claw designs independently of most suits. This allows you to combine different outfits and claw styles to create your preferred version of Logan.

For example, you can equip a classic Wolverine suit while using a completely different claw design. Since claws are cosmetic, your chosen appearance has no effect on combat performance.

Final Thought

Marvel’s Wolverine offers plenty of claw customization, ranging from traditional Adamantium and Bone Claws to unique designs earned through Nightmare Door challenges and exploration. Keep crafting suits, completing Nightmare Gauntlets, and collecting Whisky Bottles to expand your collection and create your preferred Wolverine look.
