Bithell Games has announced that the visual novel Tron Identity will launch for the Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam on 11 April 2023.

In a new Grid, forgotten by its creator and left alone to evolve without User intervention, an unprecedented crime has been committed. The Repository stands at the centre of this society. In the aftermath of a break-in, the future of this Grid hangs in the balance.

Tron Identity is a visual novel adventure following Query, a detective program tasked with uncovering the mystery of what was taken and by whom. Finding yourself in a world built on unstable foundations and filled with whispered knowledge, it’s up to you to question suspects and investigate your surroundings to piece together the truth.

The decisions you make will actively influence the story, with a multitude of possible outcomes, good and bad – all depending on your carefully chosen words. You’ll interact with a number of intriguing characters, and decide whether to ally with them, spurn them, or even derezz them. However you choose to deal with them, you’ll need to recover their lost memories in your search for answers, puzzling your way through defragging Identity Discs. The world of TRON is growing, and your adventure is the seed.

The first Tron movie came out in 1982 and its sequel, Tron Legacy, was released in 2010. Meanwhile, the last entry in the Tron franchise was the animated series Tron Uprising, which ran from 2012 to 2013.
