The Prisoning: Fletcher’s Quest, the metroidvania will be published by Acclaim

Announced some time ago, with a demo available during the Steam Next Fest, the metroidvania The Prisoning: Fletcher’s Quest has found a publisher. It is Acclaim, which announced the partnership with developers Elden Pixels during yesterday evening's Play Acclaim. The title is, to be precise, a side-scrolling "metroidvania-lite" with retro graphics, emphasizing precision platforming and procedurally generated level layouts (or rather, only the room arrangement will be random, not their design). "Based on a true story".

The Prisoning: Fletcher’s Quest will be released during 2026 on PC via Steam and consoles, but we don't yet know which ones. Here is the announcement trailer.
