Fanvids
  • Tron: Uprising Tribute "Self Made Program" by Draqua
  • Recommended by Allronix
  • Comments: The song choice, La Roux's cover of "Self Machine" is surprisingly upbeat and sunny for a franchise that hasn't been the least bit optimistic since 1982. However, the themes of the song and the choice of clips works, especially given Beck's relentless determination to choose his own path, and the Programs' depiction in series as having wildly ranging moral compasses and just as much "heart" as any human.

  • Synopsis: After Able's death, Cyrus returns to end Beck and Tron once and for all. But during these twists and turns of events, the resisitance against Clu grows, and The Uprising begins... Beck XOC & Tron X(insert name) (Tron fans should know who I'm talking about. X3)

The Renegade by Marvel 6

  • Recommended by CMR Rosa
  • Status: Dormant
  • Synopsis: In a fanfic of Tron Uprising, Syra is a normal medical program on the Grid. But that all changes in one night. The Renegade causes a distraction that saves Syra from the trial of the Games but that favor is not about to go unpaid. When Beck is gravely injured, and death is at his door, only one program can save him. Or will she condemn him?

Change of Leadership by Chaostructure

  • Recommended by Allronix
  • Status: Completed one-shot
  • Synopsis: The Coup, from Dyson's point of view
  • Comments: It takes a lot of effort to make Dyson, of all Programs, look sympathetic considering the stunts he pulled in-universe, but Chaostructure makes a compelling case for the Coup and the actions that followed being less evil and more I Did What I Had to Do. It doesn't necessarily make Dyson any less dangerous or his actions any less terrible, but it argues compellingly that the situation on the Grid was much more morally grey than the series and film depicted.

False Flag by Chaostructure

  • Recommended by Allronix
  • Status: Completed one-shot
  • Synopsis: Dyson discovers Clu orchestrated the conflict against the Isos.
  • Comments: Again, Chaostructure pulls off a sympathetic look at one of the Tron universe's most vile characters, this one depicting what would happen if Dyson found out how much of the whole setup that caused him to support Clu was based on a lie. Two different endings, as well - one where Dyson decides it doesn't matter, and one where it does.

Stranger, Why Do You Care? by Scribe Of Rhapsody

  • Recommended by Scribe 22209
  • Status: Completed
  • Synopsis: Tron? Repurposed. Disc? Lost. Mara and Zed? Left to pick up the pieces.
  • Comments: Stranger, Why Do You Care? bridges the gap between Uprising and Legacy, showing the perspectives of several programs during the intervening time; from Beck explaining his actions to his friends as his memories fade, to Mara and Zed caring for him as best they can, to Tron himself fighting against his repurposing.

Crossover Fics
Stories which crossover with other characters or works.

''Avengers Uprising by God's Great Dance Floor

  • Recommended by CMR Rosa
  • Vanished from the internet. Please post a link if found.
  • Synopsis: Tony, Natasha, Clint and Steve are sent off to find out the cause of a strange message S.H.I.E.L.D has been getting. But what they discover will shock them, and raise questions that will decide the fate of the Earth and the Grid. Takes place during Uprising. Might be some swearing.
  • Comments: I believe this is the first Tron: Uprising crossover and it up to a good start
