canon point: end of Deadpool & Wolverine
history: Wiki Here + Wade's also been in Etraya before, albeit briefly. During that time, he'd not changed much as a person but felt the immense weight of being tasked with saving his universe but tried to distract himself with his usual antics (example: prepping for the labyrinth that might kill people by getting a group together for a party to watch The Labyrinth). Coming back again, after having saved his and multiple universes in Deadpool & Wolverine, is going to throw him for a loop. He finally knows that he's capable of great things and of saving his world, but the fact that his universe is still in danger is going to piss him off. 
abilities: Wade has a healing factor that means he can heal from any injury and regrow any part of his body, even previously healing from getting ripped in half and blown up. In game, if there are any in-game plots that require that healing factor not to work or work more slowly, that would be fine by me. He also has superhuman strength to a degree, and quick reflexes. He's also a skilled fighter with hand to hand, guns, and blades.
personality:
CW: suicidal ideation, violence, blood/gore
The people Wade cares for, he cares for deeply, and he wants to protect them, even if sometimes his more negative tendencies and mental instability compete with that desire. In the second movie when Vanessa dies due to his negligence he’s inconsolable, so much so that he tries to end his own life only to have his healing factor prevent it. He also grows to care for Russell and fights desperately to save him from Cable and the teen's own demons. Russell gave him something new to fight for eventually and a new hope for a family, even if it isn’t one by blood. Wade wants to connect with others, even if sometimes he's not one to go about it in a normal way. This is shown again in the third movie, where he does everything he can to save his universe for the sake of his found family and is willing to put his own life at risk to do so, fighting Wolverine for who would sacrifice themselves to destroy the Time Ripper that would have destroyed all timelines-- which they ultimately teamed up to do and therefore managed to survive.

With Wade's healing factor comes a disregard for his safety. He leaps into situations without care for how he might be hurt. The pain from his injuries is the same as anyone else might suffer even if he heals from it, and that constant infliction of pain does little to improve his already fractured mental state. He's been shot, stabbed, ripped in half, and yet still never stops joking through it all. With this recklessness, sometimes Wade also fails to account for how his actions might impact those around him. He traveled around the world killing gangsters, human traffickers, and awful people and did little to hide who he was. There was a gang leader that he'd failed to kill who was able to track him back to the apartment he shared with Vanessa and while he was able to fend off most of the attackers, one did end up shooting and killing her. Ultimately though, knowing his actions are at fault he hasn't changed his behavior, he's still as reckless as he ever was because mental instability won’t allow for anything else.

Wade tends not to care about things unless they impact him directly or are in the immediate present. Deaths, atrocities, and world events don't matter, but if someone hurts someone he cares about, he is there in a moment to seek retribution. He chases Vanessa's killer down the street and throws them both in front of a truck. Yet when Cable tells him that fifty years in the future Wade and his generation "fuck this planet into a coma," Wade just makes an exploding 'boom' sound and says, "Spoiler alert! Ha ha! Ah... planets." And in Deadpool & Wolverine, he gladly tells Cassandra Nova all the terrible things that Johnny Storm had said about her when they first meet because he thought it was funny, leading to Cassandra murdering Johnny. But Wade brushes that off, much to Logan's horror. Because Wade hadn't really gotten that close to the man, he didn't really care that much that he'd died. He can be very callous in that way.

Wade resorts to violence quickly and when he has his mind set on a goal or target, he usually pays little mind to the collateral damage. He will shoot up an entire building or blow up cars and roadways all to kill one man. He is usually only trying to kill terrible people or those attacking him, but there seems to be little concern about who else might be in the crosshairs.
