TRON: Catalyst’s I/O Tower Now Accessible to Switch Players

Alright, let’s get into this. I was doing my usual thing, you know, scrolling through the web when – BAM – something caught my eye. "Flynn Lives!" I mean, does he? Or is it some gamer’s fever dream? Anyway, that’s a story for October. Right now, Big Fan (yep, that’s Devolver Digital’s quirky sidekick) and Bithell Games dropped some news. They tossed their isometric action game, TRON: Catalyst, onto the Nintendo Switch.

So, picture this – it’s set in the TRON universe, straight out of TRON: Legacy from 2010. They’re saying it’s this blend of time-loops and punchy combat with a killer plotline about a world left behind by its own maker. Heavy, right? Oh, there’s a launch trailer too, if you’re into those.

Story time: You’re Exo. Not like the band, but this courier chick. Her normal day goes off the rails when a package – surprise! – blows up and gives her superpowers. Like, why does this happen only in games and movies? Anyway, she’s got these powers now, and she’s dodging these so-called “peacekeepers” in the Arq Grid. Basically, it’s a race against time. And coding, I guess.

So, what can you mess around with in TRON: Catalyst? Let me break it down:

• Time-loops & Action: Exo’s got this funky time-rewind thing going with something called the Glitch. So, mess up, learn, repeat. She’s gotta bob and weave through fighting factions, finding new roads, and cracking the mysteries of the Arq Grid.

• TRON Combat: Imagine battling it out on the ground. Disc kicks, parries, slicing through baddies with iconic TRON vibes. Then hop on a Light Cycle because, duh, it’s TRON. Get those data shards and level up Exo’s code. Powers, people!

• A New Story: So, Exo’s powers are mysterious. There’s a glitch, a bad guy named Conn at Core chasing her. Sounds chill. But just running? Nah, she’s gotta crack this loop wide open.

• World Explorer Time: It’s all rain-soaked streets – apparently inside a PC? – neon vibes everywhere. Look for intense program power plays while that epic soundtrack thrums in your ears. Yes, music is crucial. Synths on synths.

I’m over here like, rain-soaked in a computer? Sure, why not. TRON: Catalyst’s live – snatch it on the Nintendo eShop for $29.99 if you’re intrigued. Or not. I mean, who am I to tell anyone what to do? But there’s more info at bigfangames.com, if curiosity nibbles.
