Acclaim has confirmed that Kidbash: Super Legend, developed by Indonesian teams Authentic Remixes and Fat Raccoon, will arrive "early" next year on Steam and consoles.
The publisher unveiled a cinematic trailer at this week’s BITSummit showcase, positioning the game as a nostalgia-tinged roguelike action-platformer that pairs fast-paced combat with procedural progression and a handcrafted claymation visual style.
Background and development
Authentic Remixes and Fat Raccoon, both Indonesia-based studios, are co-developing Kidbash: Super Legend.
Publisher Acclaim issued a press release describing the title as an homage to classic platforming entries such as Mega Man and Kirby 64, combining traditional action-platforming with roguelike systems.
The game’s debut trailer, shown at BITSummit—a well-known indie game festival in Kyoto—offered the first extended look at its diorama-like stages, boss encounters, and a roster of oversized characters.
What the trailer and PR confirm
According to materials distributed by Acclaim, Kidbash positions players as the "lost" and "forgotten" hero Kidbash, who explores a tactile, diorama-inspired world.
The publishers describe core mechanics that include weapon mixing, powerful modification systems, and meta-progression tied to village-building.
The PR emphasizes a progression loop in which character development and long-term upgrades are connected to the growth of an in-game village.
Rewriting notable statements in journalistic terms: the PR frames Kidbash as a deliberate homage to Mega Man and Kirby 64, designed to merge fast-paced action and exploratory platforming with a deep, replay-driven roguelike progression system wrapped in a claymation aesthetic.
The BITSummit trailer provided a first look at the game's larger-than-life cast, its model-like diorama environments, and several boss encounters, while also showcasing gameplay elements that have not been publicly demonstrated before.
Platforms and release window
Acclaim lists the release window as "early" next year and specifies availability on "Steam and consoles".
The company has not provided a firm release date or an exhaustive list of console platforms.
The game’s claymation look and indie design sensibilities align it with recent indie hits that have found audiences across PC and console storefronts.
What to watch for next
Expect further updates from Acclaim and the developers with specific platform confirmations, a release date, and technical details as the launch window approaches.
For now, Kidbash: Super Legend stands out as a stylized indie entry that blends classic platforming influences with modern roguelike structure and village-based meta-progression.
