Big Fan Games, along with Bithell Games and Disney Games, is cooking up something exciting for TRON fans. They’ve officially announced the development of Disney TRON: Catalyst for the Nintendo Switch, and it’s bound to be a thrilling addition to the gaming world.
This upcoming game takes the classic TRON vibe and wraps it in a story-driven isometric action experience, continuing the saga introduced with TRON: Identity. At the heart of this new chapter is Exo, a program known for her resilience and resourcefulness, gifted with a unique knack for setting time loops in motion. You’ll guide her as she battles the dominating overseers of a deteriorating Grid and stays one step ahead of the ominous CORE agent, Conn.
Exo’s journey is about mastering her enigmatic abilities and unraveling the mystery behind a strange Glitch that’s playing havoc with the Grid. Players will engage in intense battles both on foot and astride the iconic Light Cycle, all in a quest to gather essential intelligence for the adventure at hand.
The publishers have shared some of the game’s compelling features that players can look forward to:
