The entire premise of Tron was also perfectly designed for becoming an MMO.

This is where the real battleground would take place. After getting past the standard level 20 newb mark that’s when players fast-forward to the real Grid…the one being fought over using the aesthetics and architecture that we fell in love with from Tron: Legacy. Players could get a feel for the universe, train up their Program-Avatar by participating in simplified games as it was shown off in the original movie. One thing that would be quite unique is that the starting newbie area of the game would look like the old-school Tron from 1982 (or as it was depicted in Tron 2.0). From there it’s a matter of carrying out quests that eventually propel you from being a simple sub-routine and into a full-fledged main process. Players would create their character (or Program) and enter the Grid assigned to the faction of their choosing. Each faction has a leader representing their side and the four sides will be designated in the respective red, green, blue and yellow color schemes. Basically, it would involve four different factions within the Grid who all want to vie for control of the Central Processing Mainframe for different reasons. While most MMOs throw storylines and progressive plot-points off to the side – with maybe the exception of a few titles such as Nexon’s highly lauded Vindictus or the hand-animated action-RPG, Lunia Online - the storyline for Tron: Revolution could be pretty simple.

To further delve into what a Tron MMO could be like here at Bright Hub, we have the Most Wanted MMOs, which will break down what some of the features and gameplay mechanics could be like, especially for everyone who missed out on the Top 5 with Tron: Revolution on the list.

I mean, wouldn’t it be neat to actually travel through the dark void of the Grid with some chill-out trance tunes while you and your guild leave a streaking wave of light behind you on your light-cycles? Well, there’s no denying how awesome that would be. Well, a lot of readers actually thought that a Tron MMO would be pretty cool. The placeholder name for that game was Tron: Revolution and the idea behind it was that Tron was an MMO that took place within the Grid, with thousands of players running around as Programs attached to different factions. Recently, here at Bright Hub there was a Top 5 list of video game franchises that would make for pretty big MMO ventures, and one of them on that list happened to be Tron.
