Acclaim has confirmed that Kidbash: Super Legend, a nostalgic roguelike action-platformer developed by Indonesian studios Authentic Remixes and Fat Raccoon, is planned for release on both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2. The publisher told Nintendo Everything the project is currently targeting an early 2027 launch window. The title pairs fast-paced platforming and combat with a claymation-style aesthetic and roguelike progression systems. Background and development Kidbash: Super Legend positions itself as a love letter to classic action-platformers while introducing modern systems such as weapon combination mechanics and meta progression. The game is set in the O.D.D., a world populated by forgotten video game characters. Players take on the role of Kidbash, an amnesiac hero who must rediscover his identity and purpose while exploring vibrant environments and overcoming procedurally challenging runs. Publisher perspective Acclaim’s publishing leadership highlighted Kidbash’s distinctive presentation and design as key factors in backing the game. In journalistic terms, Acclaim’s director of publishing and strategic partnerships said the team was immediately drawn to the title’s blend of retro action sensibilities and contemporary polish — noting the claymation visual style, inventive weapon-mixing combat, and the game’s energetic personality as reasons the publisher believes it will stand out among indie releases. Gameplay and features - Play as Kidbash: An amnesiac protagonist who awakens with only his name and a drive to become a hero, journeying through the O.D.D. and confronting the mystery of missing figures like the mountain master Tao Shen Long. - Weapon Mixing: Filling a meter by defeating foes allows players to combine two weapons into a more powerful hybrid with unique mechanics. - Randomized Mods and Builds: Players can discover and stack randomized mods that alter platforming and combat during runs. - Village Building & Meta Progression: Rebuilding the village of Mandala ties directly into long-term progression and character development. - Boss Encounters: Distinct boss characters populate the mountain, offering varied abilities and personalities that shape encounters.
