Last week, we reported that Bastion was surprisingly released for Google Chrome and now there's even better news: free Bastion DLC. This nice gift–arriving just in time for the holidays–will be released on Steam and the Chrome App store this Wednesday. Though it will be free for those two platforms, the Xbox LIVE version will cost $0.99 since good 'ol Microsoft doesn't like giving stuff away for free.
Here's what to expect:
- The Stranger's Dream: a new fully narrated Who Knows Where sequence, bigger and more challenging than the others. You'll gain a bit more insight into Rucks' backstory as well as the history of Caelondia if you can survive this fight.
- No-Sweat Mode: for those who just want to experience the story of Bastion, this mode provides unlimited chances to carry on from where you left off if you're defeated in battle.
- Score Attack Mode: a challenging new way to play through the story! You start at level one with all Spirits and Idols unlocked. Your combat performance is rated for efficiency, and all areas are repeatable.
Sounds good to me!
