“My user calls. May I pass?”
Okay, so get this—Flynn might still be kicking around. Or maybe not. Guess we’ll find out in October, fingers crossed. But for now, something kinda cool is happening. Big Fan and Bithell Games dropped this game called TRON: Catalyst on the Nintendo Switch. I gotta say, it’s wild.
Picture this: You’re thrown into the TRON universe—yep, like from TRON: Legacy back in 2010. Catalyst pulls you into this crazy digital world that’s falling apart because, apparently, the creator peaced out. And there’s this trailer that paints a picture of it all coming undone. Weirdly mesmerizing?
Anyway, about the story—you’re Exo. Just moseying along, doing courier stuff when—bam—a mysterious package goes kaboom. Next thing you know, Exo’s got mind-bending powers, way beyond the norm. Chaos ensues when these so-called peacekeepers start breathing down her neck. The mission? Crack open the grid’s mysteries before they catch up.
You get this Time-looping Action thing, right? Exo can rewind time using these ‘Glitches’—sounds sci-fi-ish, but here we are. These glitches are your toolkit for tackling warring factions, navigating this glitchy, digitized mess, what have you.
Let’s talk combat. Iconic TRON-style. Think light cycles, disc battles, all that jazz. You’ll dance with doom, deflecting and parrying with Disc Kicks—whatever those are—and digging up Data Shards. Neat, huh?
Oh, and you plunge into a brand-new TRON saga, grappling with Exo’s weird powers and some glitch threatening the entire Grid. Car chase with Conn, the bad guy? Sign me up. But just shaking him off isn’t enough. Breaking free from the loop is the real endgame.
Can’t forget the city itself—the rain-slicked streets (yeah, it rains inside computers now, go figure). It’s all neon, cutting-edge future vibes. Add a synth-heavy soundtrack, and you’re in an electric dreamscape. Hyperbole? Maybe, but you gotta see it.
$29.99 on the Nintendo eShop. Seriously, grab some popcorn, it might just be one heck of a ride. Check out more at bigfangames.com if you’re curious—or just nosy.
