Newly-reborn publisher Acclaim, Inc. arrived at BITSummit PUNCH with big news, championing two explosive indie games on the horizon.
During the event at Miyako Messe (Kyoto International Exhibition Hall) in Kyoto, Japan, the company announced it will publish Kidbash: Super Legend, the nostalgic roguelike action-platformer developed by Indonesian indie studios Authentic Remixes and Fat Raccoon.
Acclaim is also bringing HYPERyuki: Snowboard Syndicate, the arcade snowboarding racer from Mexican indie studio Wabisabi Games that has already turned heads at Gamescom LATAM and GDC, to the show floor.
Two highly ambitious titles that underscore Acclaim’s commitment to elevating indie developers from across the globe, Kidbash: Super Legend and HYPERyuki: Snowboard Syndicate are available for attendees to go hands-on with from May 22 to May 24.
“BITSummit is one of the most important stages in indie gaming, and we couldn’t be more excited to bring both Kidbash: Super Legend and HYPERyuki: Snowboard Syndicate to Kyoto,” said Alex Josef, CEO of Acclaim, Inc. “These two titles exemplify exactly what Acclaim stands for: championing talented and passionate developers from around the world and giving their work the platform it deserves. Whether you’re on the show floor or following along from home, we think these games are going to turn a lot of heads.”
Kidbash: Super Legend
Lovingly crafted by Indonesian indie studios Authentic Remixes and Fat Raccoon, Kidbash: Super Legend is a nostalgic roguelike action-platformer coming to Steam and consoles in early 2027. Awakening in a world of forgotten game characters with no memory of his past, the hero Kidbash embarks on an emotional journey of redemption, training, and discovery. Paying homage to the classic adventures of Mega Man and Kirby, the game blends fast-paced action and exploration with deep roguelike progression and a charming claymation-style aesthetic that brings its vibrant characters and world to life.
HYPERyuki: Snowboard Syndicate
Developed by Mexican indie studio Wabisabi Games, HYPERyuki: Snowboard Syndicate is an explosive arcade snowboarding game making its way to PC and all major consoles. Paying homage to the fast-paced gameplay and trick-fueled action of classics like SSX and Jet Grind Radio, HYPERyuki features a diverse roster of snowboarders, a selection of snowy locales to shred through, and gravity-defying tricks across multiple game modes including Challenge, Race, Chill, and online and local multiplayer.
