Localizations
- In order to force a specific language add
-lang en
to Bastion's launch properties. Available language codes are: "en", "fr", "it", "de", "es" and "zh" .
Issues fixed
- Various fixes can be found in the Steam Users' Forum FAQ by the developer.
DPI scaling issues and blurry, pixelated visuals
- If a DPI scaling setting higher than "100%" is selected in Windows, the game can look blurry or may be too large to properly fit the screen.
Change the "high DPI settings" of the game executable[citation needed]
|
- Find the game executable
Bastion.exe on your system.
- Right-click the executable, then select
Properties .
- Switch to the
Compatibility tab and click on Change high DPI settings , under "Settings".
- On the new window, under "High DPI scaling override", activate the checkbox: [✓].
- Select
Application from the dropdown menu and confirm with OK.
- Click Apply, then OK on the
Properties window.
- Launch the game.
To revert the changes, deactivate or unselect the checkbox mentioned above ( [ ] ) and apply the changes made.
|
Low FPS on Windows 10
- After updating to Windows 10, reaching 60 FPS is impossible even on good hardware.
Configure launch options[citation needed]
|
- Find Bastion in your Steam Library
- Right-click the game's title
- Select
Properties
- Select
Set Launch Options...
- Input
-nofixedstep This will unlock your framerate and allow you to run the game smoothly.
- Press
OK
- Launch the game.
- Ensure Vertical Sync is On in-game (an unlocked framerate breaks the game).
|
Lost savegames
- When starting the game, all or some save games are missing.[5]
Move saves to a new location[5]
|
- Search all the save game data locations and find the most recent ones.
- Copy these most recent Saves to all the other save game data locations. You may have to create some which are missing (Make sure you only create ones that are relevant to your operating system!)
- Now your save games should appear again the next time you launch the game.
|
Game crashes during launch on Windows 10 / Windows 11 (Steam fix)
- When you launch the game, it immediately crashes after launching.
Install Microsoft XNA Framework 4.0[6]
|
- Download here
- Install (you could safely uninstall Microsoft XNA Framework 3.1 if it would not work)
|
Opt into Legacy Beta on Steam[7]
|
- Right click Bastion in Steam Library
- Select
Properties...
- Select
BETAS tab
- Select
legacy - legacy branch
- Click Close button (your game will now re-download and should launch correctly)
|
Game crashes during launch
- When you launch the game it goes through the intro screens and then crashes before you are able to do anything.
Close the MSI Afterburner overlay[citation needed]
|
- In the taskbar, right click on MSI Afterburner and click Close.
- You may need to click show hidden icons to see the icon.
- Other overlays such as Mumble or Fraps may apparently cause the same issue, so try disabling those as well.

Immediate CTD on launch
