Set on a newGrid- the digitised worlds in Tron - you’ll be investigating a mystery, making tough decisions, and solving puzzles, but today’s release is only the beginning.

Mike Bithell confirmed the news onTwitter, where he said “When you’re enjoying the ride, you stay on the light cycle.” If you’ve not been programmed into a Tron fan, the light cycles are those cool bikes you might have seen in Disneyworld or a fewKingdom Heartsgames, which is where my exposure to the series began.
The original Tron follows a video game programmer (very coincidental) as he enters a computer, meets the physical manifestations of the programs, and fights the evil ones. I mainly remember the series more for its beautiful blue setting. It’s partly an 80s take on the retro-future, partly neo-noir, partly Apple-designed cyberpunk, and now I’m just writing meaningless words. The Tron aesthetic is what it is - and I want more.
Tron: Identity releases later today on the Nintendo Switch and PC viaSteam, kicking off a string of other Bithell-programmed Tron games.
