Last week, Thomas Was Alone and Tron: Identity developer Bithell Games revealed Tron: Catalyst, its next entry in Disney's universe of identity discs, lightcycles, and lovely neon piping. With Catalyst, Bithell Games is trading the visual novel gameplay of Tron: Identity for a time-looping isometric action adventure, featuring a rogue program's attempt to escape her city's digital despots.
Tron: Catalyst is set in the Arq Grid—a different digital world from the Grid of the Tron movies. Introduced in Tron: Identity, the Arq Grid was created as a sanctuary for its virtual inhabitants to live without any contact with human Users. Unfortunately for Catalyst's protagonist Exo, the Arq Grid is going haywire: Glitches have the Grid caught in a time loop, and she's the only one who can tell.
