Indie developer Supergiant Games has found a publisher in Warner Bros. Interactive for its debut title, Bastion. The move marks a push from Warner to expand into digital gaming and simultaneously support original gameplay experiences.

"We're thrilled to be working with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment on Bastion," said Amir Rao, Studio Director of Supergiant Games. "Warner Bros. instantly saw the potential of our original game world and narrative style, and is providing Supergiant Games with the support and autonomy we need to make Bastion an amazing experience."

“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.”

If you happen to be at PAX East this weekend, Bastion will be playable at both the Warner Interactive and Supergiant Games' booths. If not, you’ll have to wait until the action/RPG hits Xbox Live Arcade this summer, or for PC at an undisclosed point in 2011.
