Indie hit Bastion heads to the PlayStation 4 today

First announced in December of last year, the PlayStation 4 port of Supergiant Games’ indie hit Bastion hits today. The Vita version, announced at the same time, doesn’t.

This is the first appearance of Bastion on current-gen consoles, but it isn’t the studio’s first time on the PlayStation 4. Supergiant released Transistor last year, and while the game found many friends among critics, it didn’t sell as well as Bastion, which has sold over 3 million copies.

“It feels great having made a game we feel has stood the test of time, as the first version of Bastion launched almost four years ago — practically an eternity in game years,” Supergiant’s creative director Greg Kasavin wrote on the PlayStation Blog, adding, “yet you wouldn’t know it just from playing this latest version, with its hand-painted scenery running at a silky smooth 60 frames per second in 1080p and all that!”

While fans seem happy at the chance to play the game again on the PS4, that didn’t stop them from posting comments asking where the Vita version was. “The Vita version of Bastion is still in development,” Kasavin replied to one commenter. “We don’t have a release date for it at this time. We expect for it to be cross-buy enabled with the PS4 version.”

While Supergiant initially created the game in “the living room of a house in a California suburb,” development for the PS4 port of the game was handled by BlitWorks. The Barcelona-based studio previously worked on PS4 ports of Don’t Starve and FEZ.

Bastion for the PS4 will sell for $15 in North America, while prices for the U.K. and Europe are yet to be announced. Take a look at the trailer for the PS4 and Vita versions of the game below.

3 new PlayStation Plus games to play this weekend (June 6-8)
Faux getting huge air in Bomb Rush Cyberfunk.

We're fully in showcase season with SGF 2025 starting today and a surprise State of Play happening earlier this week with tons of upcoming PS5 games shown off. Oh, and there's a little console called the Nintendo Switch 2 that just came out as well. But if you're a PlayStation faithful, you will need some games to play this weekend between showcases and while waiting for Death Stranding 2. Last week we got an early drop of PlayStation Plus games, but there's even more that just hit the service this week you might've forgotten about. I've picked out a fresh batch of brand new games you can get lost in over the weekend, so let's get to it.

Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles drops on PlayStation 5 this fall
Final Fantasy Tactics

Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles is coming to PlayStation 5 on September 30, 2025, and contains both the 1997 version of the game and a new, remastered edition. It's available for preorder starting today.

Final Fantasy Tactics is arguably one of the greatest tactical RPGs ever made, and is still a fan favorite nearly three decades after its release. The Classic version of the game "unites the graphics and gameplay of the original with the renowned War of the Lions translations," while the Enhanced edition provides a more modern interface, "extensive" additions to the game — though no word on what, exactly, that means — and fully voiced dialogue.

Everything announced at PlayStation’s June 2025 State of Play
A samurai fights a boss in Nioh 3.

Summer game reveal season began today. While Summer Game Fest and the Xbox Games Showcase will have our attention this weekend, Sony kicked things off with a PS5 showcase that was very juicy. After all, the back half of 2025 was a bit of a mystery for Sony heading into today's stream. We knew that Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, Marathon, and Ghost of Yotei would be the system's biggest upcoming games, but we saw a whole lot more during a loaded 40 minute stream.

After kicking off with a surprise Lumines revival, Sony showed off a rapid fire collection of trailers. That included highly anticipated games like Pragmata and big surprises like Nioh 3. We even got a Final Fantasy Tactics remake, which likely wasn't on your State of Play bingo card. If you missed the stream, you can catch up on every announcement below.
