Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has announced a partnership with indie dev studio Supergiant Games to publish Bastion, an action RPG for Xbox LIVE Arcade. The game will arrive on the download service this summer.

“We are looking forward to working with Supergiant Games to bring the unique gaming experience in Bastion to all types of players,” said Martin Tremblay, president of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. “We have seen tremendous talent coming from independent development studios and Bastion is a fantastic example of the innovation and imagination in that game space.”

For those not in the know, Bastion has received numerous awards during its development, including Best New IP at PAX Prime. The RPG features hand-painted environments, with players taking on the role of “the Kid,” a survivor of a cataclysmic event that has shattered the world.

While Bastion will arrive first on Xbox LIVE Arcade, a PC version is due later in the year.
