Cloudberry Kingdom is a platform game created by Pwnee Studios.[2] The game uses a set of algorithms developed by Jordan Fisher to create procedurally generated levels that can be adaptive to player skill level, player character abilities, and alteration of game physics.[3] It was crowdfunded via Kickstarter.[2]

Cloudberry Kingdom is a downloadable title for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, Wii U and Xbox 360.[4][5]

On December 12, 2025, RedoApps has rereleased Cloudberry Kingdom on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, with a Nintendo Switch version released on February 2, 2026.[6] The PlayStation 5 can also play the PlayStation 3 version via emulation, making it the first PS3 title to be backwards compatible with PS5.[7]

Reception

The PlayStation 3 and Wii U versions received "generally favorable reviews", while the Xbox 360 and PC versions received "average" reviews, according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[8][9][10][11]

Delisting

In May 2020, the game's publisher, Ubisoft, delisted Cloudberry Kingdom on Steam with no announcement.[28] Neither Pwnee Studios nor Ubisoft commented on the delisting, though ComicBook.com speculates that Ubisoft has lost the publishing rights to the game.[6]
