20 years ago, an artificial intelligence known as the Master Control Program (MCP) threatened to take over an unsuspecting world. Only Kevin Flynn, a computer genius, stood between the MCP and rest of humanity. Flynn was digitized into a parallel universe inside the computer, where the MCP pitted programs against each other in gladiatorial combat on the arena known as the Game Grid.
With the help of a security program known as Tron, Flynn ultimately defeated the MCP and returned to the real world.
20 years later, Alan Bradley, creator of the original Tron program, has finally replicated the technology needed to successfully digitize a human being into the computer. The secret lies in Ma3a, an artificial intelligence program sophisticated enough to hold within its memory the complete genetic makeup of a human being, and the correction algorithms required to safely restore one to the physical world.
