The story is a combination of the Wolverine backstory explored in the film and an original plot created by Raven Software,[10] which was influenced by major events in the X-Men comic series.
X-Men Origins takes influences from games such as God of War and Devil May Cry with a third person perspective.[4] The Uncaged Edition also features a large amount of blood and gore. Enemies can be slain in several ways in addition to the graphic display of Wolverine's healing factor.[5]

Combat relies on three options - light attacks, heavy attacks, and grabs. Another form of attack is the lunge, which allows Wolverine to quickly close the distance to an enemy. Wolverine can also use the environment to his advantage, such as by impaling foes on spikes. During combat, Wolverine's rage meter builds up, and when full allows him to use more devastating attacks, like the claw spin and a berserker mode, which increases Wolverine's claw strength until his Rage Meter empties.[6] Experience (XP) is collected from defeating enemies, destroying elements and accumulating collectibles.[7] The XP is used to level up, and each new level results in gaining skill points, which are used to purchase upgrades.

The PlayStation 2 and Wii versions are less graphic, with less language and slightly different combat.[8][9] Feral senses are still obtained, which can detect doors, traps, enemies and sentinel observers, and lunges must be performed at closer distances.[9]

In May 2009, Raven Software set up a developers blog.[11] Blur Studio, who also worked with Raven on X-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, provided all of the CGI cutscenes for the game.[12] From January to March, the developers published a large number of 3D screenshots.[13][14][15][16][17] The music for the game was composed by Paul Haslinger.[18] Raven worked with publisher Activision to provide easter eggs from other games to be found, such as the Lich King's sword from World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King[19] and the cake mentioned in the game Portal.[20]

The Uncaged Edition version received generally positive reviews, whereas other versions of the game attained mostly mixed to negative reviews. In general, strong points has been identified in the violence consistent with the comic version of the character and the aesthetic value, whereas the shortness of the campaign, the lack of replay value and the repetitiveness of action have been criticized.

IGN's Greg Miller stated the Uncaged Edition version of the game is an "awesome guilty pleasure", despite criticisms of fights repetitiveness.[45] Miller appreciated the cinematic of the game, as well its bloody sights. Overall, the visuals received a mixed review from IGN, stating "the game looks great sometimes and shoddy other times".[45] Miller further criticized that the only noteworthy sounds are Hugh Jackman's voice and the claws sound.[45] Whilst the game was marked with an overall 7.8/10 ('good'), the PS2 and Wii were marked respectively 4.5[8] ('bad') and 4.8 ('poor').[49] The shortcomings of the two ports lay, among others, in the general lack of music during fights, poor controls and bad textures.[8][49]

The different reception based on the game port was confirmed by the review aggregators GameRankings and Metacritic. While the ranking for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 on both aggregators was around 75/100, the Nintendo DS' and Wii's rankings stood significantly behind, with the PSP port ranked around the middle.

GameSpot gave the game a 7/10, praising the variety of enemies, the brutal action and the representation of Wolverine's power, yet criticizing the poor replay value and the disappointing boss fights.[39] Overall, the game was defined as "one of the better movie tie-ins released recently".[39] Destructoid's review, which gave the game a 7.5/10, focused on similar points, by finding fault with boss fights, poor replay value and sloppy plot and identifying as strong points the quality of the aesthetic and the brutal action.[34]

Eurogamer gave the game a 5/10
