Material Crates are one of the three main collectible types in Marvel's Wolverine. There are 68 of them hidden throughout the game. Each crate contains 50 Materials, which are used to craft additional suits. Crafting new outfits also increases Logan's maximum Health.You only need the contents of 63 crates to craft every available standard suit. If your only goal is to increase Logan's maximum Health to 200%, 33 crates are enough. You'll need to find all 68 only if you want the Crate Collector trophy. In this guide, we'll cover every Material Crate location in order and go through all the missions that contain these collectibles.
What to Do If You Miss a Crate
You don't need to restart the game because of a missed crate. Once mission replay becomes available, go to the bed in the Nightmare Cabin and replay the mission you need. All previously collected items remain registered, so you only have to pick up whatever you missed.There are no collectibles in the first three missions, Back in Action, A Debt Repaid, and Last Meal, so you don't need to search for anything there.
Canada - Homecoming
There are 15 Material Crates across the Canada section. Back in Action, A Debt Repaid, and Last Meal contain no crates or other collectibles.Image unavailable
