The story begins with the Program battling Quorra (voiced by Olivia Wilde) with light cycles. The Program wins and goes to Tron  City where he/she meets Quorra. The Program and Quorra become friends. Quorra finds Zuse who takes them to Tron's palace to find a trainer for the Program. They meet with Tron (voiced by Bruce Boxleitner), and he fights the program to see if he/she is championship material. Afterwards, he tells the player's program that if he/she wins the championship he/she would be the first ISO champion. This could give ISOs someone to look up to. The program then trains with Calchas for the upcoming matches. After a few training sessions the program goes through  an official match. One of Calchas' trainees, angry that he was not chosen to participate, challenges the player's program. If the player wins, Quorra then suggests to head for the next match in light cycles. On his/her way, the program is attacked by a grid bug. Both the program and Quorra fall off the track, and are attacked by a swarm of grid bugs. The Program wakes up in a colony, where a Survivalist named Gibson has taken the player's program to. He informs the program of how he saved both. On deciding to leave, Gibson says  the program must repay him, because he sacrificed valuable resources to save him/her. The program agrees to compete in multiple games, wins, and allowed to leave and return to Tron City. After the program and Quorra get back to Tron City, they begin the Light Tank battle against Bosh. The program wins, but then discovers that Calchas was in a Light Cycle Race against Blaze. This results in Calchas being derezzed by Blaze. The Program then goes to Tron's Palace and tells Tron what occurred. When they both return to Tron City, they find out that Quorra had  been kidnapped, and Blaze had threatened and hinted that if the program participated in the final match, he/she would possibly be derezzed. Then Gibson, who had come to watch the Tournament, tells the program that he saw where both Bosh and his henchmen drag her away to; so the program battled his/her way through the Elite Guards, across the Light Sail Station to Bosh, derezzed him and saved Quorra. Then both the program and Quorra hurried to the final event just in time, which was a Light Cycle battle against Blaze. The program wins, and after Blaze attempts  and fails to derezz him, the user Kevin Flynn himself gave the trophy to the first ISO champion of the Grid Games. Reception. The game received "mixed or average" reviews on both platforms according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.
