Flynn’s saga continues! Or maybe it doesn’t. Who even knows these days. We’ll find out more on that front in October, apparently. Meanwhile, there’s this game, right? It’s called TRON: Catalyst, just launched on the good ol’ Nintendo Switch, courtesy of Big Fan (yep, part of Devolver Digital) and Bithell Games. But let’s dive in, shall we?
Picture this: you’re tossed into the world of TRON from the 2010 movie, TRON: Legacy. Yep, the same flashy, neon place. Catalyst takes this whole idea of time loops and puts it into a blender with combat and this crazy storyline about a decaying digital world. Sounds intense, huh?
And guess what? They’ve got a new launch trailer. Honestly, it’s quite the visual feast.
Now, the story. This is where things get wild. You play as Exo, who’s just your average courier until bam! A mysterious package blows up in her face. Now she’s got superpowers. Makes sense, right? Suddenly, she’s on the run from these peacekeepers, or as I call them, digital bouncers, while trying to solve the grid’s big mysteries.
Oh, and there’s time-looping action in the mix. Exo’s got this Glitch power to rewind time. Handy, huh? She’s battling through different factions, trying to open up new paths and uncover Arq Grid’s secrets, which sounds like a digital Easter egg hunt.
Combat’s a big part, too. Think fast-paced, on-foot chaos, with Light Cycles to zip around for missions. I can just hear the adrenaline-pumping synth sounds already. And Exo’s got these Disc Kicks—yeah, it’s as cool as it sounds—and Data Shards to unlock all these nifty skills.
Then there’s that storyline, again. Exo’s powers are like this glitch threatening the entire Grid. And Conn, the bad guy, is on her tail. Classic chase. But it’s not just about running; she has to break the loop. Sounds dramatic, right?
The world? Just imagine strolling through rain-drenched streets inside a computer. Yep, that’s happening. It’s all neon lights and powerful programs lurking around. And of course, the music amps up the vibe, with electronic beats making you feel like you’re in a futuristic dream.
So, yeah. TRON: Catalyst is on the Nintendo eShop now. For a cool $29.99. Want more info? Head over to bigfangames.com. Not even sure why you’d wait, though!
