We haven’t gotten any update on the next TRON movie starring Jared Leto, but fans were caught by surprise this weekend when Disney revealed they were working on a TRON game.

Disney Teases New Game, TRON: Identity

Check out the teaser for TRON: Identity:

Here’s the official description:

From Bithell games, developer of Thomas Was Alone, John Wick Hex, and Volume, comes Tron Identity, a game that we know very little about, apart from this premiere teaser trailer from D23.

We don’t have a look at gameplay yet, but Mike Bithell of Bithell Games does tell IGN, “We basically cast you as a detective in that world [of TRON] who’s both interacting with the programs but also interacting with their discs and working out what makes them tick; trying to figure out what’s happened in this world. It’s kind of a unique way of telling a detective story in a sci-fi setting.”

There hasn’t really been a look at gameplay yet, but we do have some slides of characters that looks like this series could have some visual novel influence, with your character talking to different programs and choosing conversation options.

Personally, I think that TRON is all about the neon-cyber world, but there is some interesting lore that brings the Grid together, what with the programs and their relationship to the users. Legacy had also introduced us to the concept of Isos, who were completely born in the digital world, but were wiped out by Clu prior to the events of TRON: Legacy.

It may not be a movie, but it could be a fun jump back into the world while we wait for Disney to finally decide. With a release set for next year, hopefully we get a look at gameplay before 2022 ends.

TRON: Identity is expected to launch sometime in 2023.
