Released at the same time as the Disney film starring Jeff Bridges and Bruce Boxleitner, the arcade version of Tron (1982) features a collection of mini-games inspired by key elements from the movie. Light cycles, tanks, and character-based shooting stages were included, with each level named after a programming language. Twenty-eight years later, Tron makes a simultaneous return to both the cinema and video games. This multi-platform release is notable for offering a glimpse at different parts of the franchise's timeline, depending on which handheld or console version is purchased.
