All 68 Material Crate Locations & Suit Materials
Every Material Crate in Marvel's Wolverine: the suit-crafting materials inside, the health track they fund and the Crate Finder toolset.

Quick Answer: All 68 Material Crates
Sixty-eight Material Crates hold the game's suit-crafting materials. Every crate feeds the wardrobe, every crafted suit upgrades your health, and 20 crafted standard suits fully upgrade health (Adamantium Armory trophy). Collecting all 68 pays Crate Collector. Crates pulse blue and rumble the DualSense when you are near — the game wants you to find them.
| Goal | Crates Needed | Trophy |
|---|---|---|
| First crafted suit | Whatever Homecoming hands you | Suit Up (automatic) |
| Full health bar | Enough for 20 standard suits | Adamantium Armory |
| Complete collection | 68 / 68 | Crate Collector |
You do not need all 68 crates to finish the health track — the game is generous. All 68 is for the trophy and the complete wardrobe.
Crate Hunting Toolkit
Same toolkit as the bottles, tuned for crates: the Crate Finder Adaptation puts them on your senses, the collectible shader paints them on screen, and the DualSense hums as you close in. Crates look different per mission (the launch guides note they do not share one design), so shader-on is the reliable play.
- Crate Finder Adaptation — crate radar.
- Collectible shader — never walk past one again.
- Nightmare Cabin replay — the per-mission checklist shows remaining crates.
Where the 68 Crates Sit in the Campaign
The 68 Material Crates are spread across all 30 missions of the three story acts (Canada, Japan and Madripoor). Like whisky bottles, crates are placed along and just off the mission path — a shader-on first playthrough naturally banks most of them. The handful you walk past lands in the post-story cleanup, where the Nightmare Cabin's per-mission checklist shows exactly which missions still owe you a crate.
| Play Stage | What to Do | Typical Count |
|---|---|---|
| Story run (all three acts) | Shader on, follow Crate Finder pings, grab what the story path offers | Most of the 68 |
| Post-story cleanup | Nightmare Cabin bed → replay only the missions the checklist flags | The remainder |
| Final tally | Both trophies pop; craft 20 standard suits at the Suits menu | 68 / 68 |
Crate Collector pops at 68 / 68; Adamantium Armory pops when you craft 20 standard suits from the banked materials — the two trophies land in the same post-game sitting.
Crates and the Trophy Route
On PowerPyx's platinum route, crate collection is not a separate errand: you find them across the story run, finish the wardrobe after the credits via replay, and the Adamantium Armory craft happens in one sitting at the Suits menu once the materials are banked. The one trap they flag: Deluxe DLC suits do not count toward the 20 — the tracker reads standard suits only.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many Material Crates are in Marvel's Wolverine?
Sixty-eight, spread across the 30 missions of all three story acts (Canada, Japan and Madripoor). Collecting all 68 pays Crate Collector; the materials inside them craft the 20 standard suits that fully upgrade your health bar (Adamantium Armory trophy).
Can you miss Material Crates in a mission?
No — nothing in Marvel's Wolverine is missable. After the story, interact with the bed in the Nightmare Cabin to replay any mission; the per-mission checklist shows exactly which ones still owe you a crate, and collectible counts carry over between runs.
Do Deluxe DLC suits count toward Adamantium Armory?
No — the Adamantium Armory trophy only tracks standard suits crafted from Material Crate materials. The Digital Deluxe extras do not count toward the 20-suit requirement. Finish the story, bank crate materials, and craft 20 standard suits in one sitting at the Suits menu.
