Where did they get inspiration for the story???

I’m not understanding where this story came from. Wolverine knows Mister Sinister, and works for him, and also knows Jean Grey without any connection to the X-Men?

I’ve only watched a full playthrough because I’m not wasting money on the game, but I have no clue where this Frankenstein of a story came from. Seems to have more elements from Cyclops than Wolverine.

Edit: another point I’d like to make is that the game feels more like some random fighting game with a Wolverine coat of paint slathered over it.
