History

Wolverine is one of the heroes infected by the Symbiotes. He first appears in Spider-Man Web of Shadows when Spider-Man goes to Hell's Kitchen where he fights him, believing that Spider-Man is one of the Symbiotes that is infesting the city. Shortly after the fight, he finds out thats it's really Spider-Man and stops attacking him then he shows him how to use his Spider Sense in the Black Suit to locate hidden Symbiotes.

Merged with a Symbiote

Later in the game, Wolverine teams up with Spider-Man at a church. Wolverine had set up a trap - he would wait for the Symbiotes to try to get at the parishoners inside the church, then he would ring the bell to stun them so he could "chop them up by the dozen". After clearing a landing zone, a S.H.I.E.L.D. ship comes to pick them up. Soon after the people are taken away, Wolverine is infected by the Symbiotes after falling off of the church with a group of Symbiotes on him, which results in Symbiote Wolverine being born.

Spider-Man proceeded to battle for control of Wolverine's mind, after subduing the symbiote, Spider-Man managed to get through to Howlett who managed to remove the symbiote. Wolverine later helped fight the Symbiotes onboard the S.H.I.E.L.D Helicarrier while Spider-Man battled the giant super-powered Venom.

Alternate Ending

Later in the game, Wolverine teams up with Spider-Man at a church. Wolverine had set up a trap - he would wait for the Symbiotes to try to get at the parishoners inside the church, then he would ring the bell to stun them so he could "chop them up by the dozen". After clearing a landing zone, a S.H.I.E.L.D. ship comes to pick them up. Soon after the people are taken away, Wolverine is infected by the Symbiotes after falling off of the church with a group of Symbiotes on him, which results in Symbiote Wolverine being born.

Immediately after the fight, Spider-Man rips Wolverine in half and absorbs his symbiote, becoming more powerful and prompting Wolverine to swear revenge.

After taking over as supreme ruler of New York under the Symbiotes, Spider-Man was deemed a massive threat, causing S.H.I.E.L.D to bond a Symbiote to Wolverine who desired his revenge.
