Akin to other Kyrian sites, this pristine sanctuary is patrolled by anima-fueled Centurions and is kept clean and shining by diligent Stewards, who scrub each cobblestone by hand until it has a polish that only feathered elbow grease can achieve. Your first stop in Bastion is the Vestibule of Eternity. You are not the first, nor will you be the last, to question the nature of your own existence.
Unsure if you truly have moved on from the world of the living? We understand that this new reality may be difficult to accept. However, it quickly becomes apparent that underneath Bastion’s glistening veneer lies unrest: The Kyrian’s anima-the soul-born essence that fuels their eternity of service-is on the verge of being completely depleted.īefore you can help them-and make them take your warnings of Sylvanas and the horrible truth of the Maw seriously-you must prove your worthiness as an aspirant and overcome all trials to earn your Kyrian wings by Ascending. Long has it been since a soul has been sent to their gleaming realm, and the locals are astonished by the arrival of a living mortal. Yet Azeroth’s Champions are able to escape and soon make their way to the noble Kyrian in Bastion. This short also included a brief segment in memory of Yvain Gnabro, a talented animator who worked for Blizzard Entertainment and Blur studios on projects just like this before he passed away.When Sylvanas Windrunner pierces the veil between life and death, you and your allies are pulled into the Maw, where the most wicked are damned to suffer for eternity.
BLIZZARD THE LAST BASTION STILLS SERIES
Now, it often wanders through the uncharted areas of the world to avoid humanity because of the horrors it symbolizes from the Omnic Crisis.īlizzard says the short is the first in a new series of animated films coming this fall, which means we’ll be seeing more of its Pixar-like masterpieces as the year goes on. Due to the nature of its previous combat programming, Bastion often loses control when it senses danger, resulting in the destruction of the world around it which it simply wants to explore. Throughout the short, Blizzard gives us a look into struggles Bastion faces on a daily basis. After its victory, Overwatch rounded up and destroyed nearly every Bastion combat unit - except for a select few. The war lasted nearly 30 years, until the international taskforce Overwatch destroyed the omnic command and control protocols, rendering its forces inert. The film follows the origin story of Bastion after the Omnic Crisis - a conflict in which the robotic population of the world violently rebelled against their human creators. The game is now out, but Blizzard is still building the lore, and today fans got a closer look at the beleaguered combat ‘bot’s daily life in a short film released during Gamescom. Before the game’s release, Blizzard released a series of short films that filled us with emotion and built up the lore surrounding the game’s world. The robot is Bastion, one of the characters in Blizzard’s wildly-popular online game Overwatch.
In Blizzard’s latest short film, The Last Bastion, a sentient combat robot spends its life bumbling through the world and leaving a swath of destruction behind it – when all it really wants to do is explore.
