It shows many hazard-filled areas that Fletcher must overcome, as well as a couple of boss fights that seem very intense. The game provides classic platforming action and shows some great-looking pixel art as well as a catchy tune. We look forward to playing this one and watching as Acclaim gets back to where we feel it belongs in the gaming world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"The Prisoning: Fletcher&#039;s Quest - Official Release Date Trailer\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/St57WqrdIIU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back in 2025, we were very excited to see iconic publisher Acclaim come back to life.
