Alright, so… imagine this — you’re chilling, maybe staring at your screen, and bam! Flynn’s back, sort of. October’s the time to find out more. But hey, here’s the scoop: Big Fan and those Bithell Games folks tossed out this new thing called TRON: Catalyst on the Switch.
You remember TRON, right? From that wild 2010 flick? Yeah, it’s in that whole digital mess — a world falling apart ‘cause the big guy who made it just, well, bailed. There’s this fancy trailer showing it all, if you’re into visuals.
Now, about the story, or some of it at least: You’re Exo. A regular courier until, surprise, a package does the Explodey McBoom routine and gifts ya some wild powers. Next thing, Exo’s dodging the Arq Grid’s wannabe peace cops and solving mysteries — if puzzles and explosions mix, this is it.
So, what’s in the game? It gets crazy with:
-
Time-looping Action: Yeah, like Groundhog Day with glitches. You mess up, rewind, and maybe avoid faceplanting next time. That’s Exo’s challenge — factions, secrets, all that jazz.
-
TRON Combat: Ever tried reflecting Disc Kicks? No? Me neither, but here, you get to. Fight baddies, ride Light Cycles, and sneak in some vital tidbits to power up Exo.
-
New Storyline: Unraveling glitches, dodging Conn (that pesky Core agent), and breaking loops — it’s a wild ride. How much control over these glitchy abilities? That’s for the players to sort out.
- Discover Stuff: Wander neon cityscapes like you’re on a rain-slicked cyber vacation. Meet power-hungry programs, dive deep into TRON’s digital dreamland, all with a synth beat kicking in the background.
Rain indoors? In a computer? Call me skeptical. But I guess that’s part of the fun?
Anyway, TRON: Catalyst awaits on the Nintendo eShop for $29.99. Curious minds can find more at bigfangames.com.
