SuperGiant Games has confirmed that a PC version of arty action-RPG Bastion will arrive before the end of the year. A PSN version isn’t looking likely, however.

“We are taking our time to make sure the default control scheme on PC feels really good,” SuperGiant creative director Greg Kasavin told Eurogamer.

“It will still support game pad controls but we want to make sure folks playing with a mouse and keyboard have a very good experience.”

Although last year’s XBLA hit Limbo arrived on the PlayStation store today, SuperGiant isn’t looking to do the same with Bastion.

“We have no plans slated for a PSN release,” explains Kasavin.

“Being a small team we have decided to focus on developing the game serially, so we focus on one version at a time. So our focus at the moment is on the Xbox launch, then we have the PC launch. We’ll see what happens after that but there are no confirmed PSN plans at this point.”

My Bastion review went live yesterday, and I was impressed. “Bastion is the perfect game to kick off Microsoft’s Summer of Arcade, capturing that certain something that Limbo and Braid had in previous years.” I said.
