    Bastion Coming to PC this Month

    Bastion, the first title released for Xbox Live's "Summer of Arcade" is headed to the PC! On August 16, for the price of $14.99 (USD), gamers can pick up the hit Arcade title thanks to Steam. In addition, the game will be released without any additional form of DRM, include Steam achievements, Cloud saves, and leaderboards.


    Bastion has earned numerous accolades for its unique atmosphere and narrative style, deep yet accessible combat, and distinctive presentation. The game received ten E3 awards this year including the Game Critics Award for Best Downloadable Game, Game Informer Magazine’s award for Best Downloadable Game, and G4tv.com’s award for Most Original Game.

    The PC version of Bastion will be available DRM-free and include Steamworks support for Cloud saves, achievements, and leaderboards (Steam version only). Featuring lush and imaginative artwork in full 1080p resolution as well as an innovative reactive narration system that responds to players' actions in real time, the game challenges players to build a new world after a cataclysmic event shatters the land to pieces. As players journey into the wild unknown, they will confront savage beasts, forge an array of customizable weapons, and gain new powers from specially-brewed spirits as they become immersed in the game's rich atmosphere. Gameplay is designed to reward player skill, offering great customization including the new remappable PC control scheme. Bastion for PC will also support gamepad controllers.


    More good news for you to go along with this. Bastion is available for pre-purchase on Steam!
