Get the Scoop on Pragmata, the Long-Awaited Sci-Fi Action Adventure
Pragmata, Capcom's space-faring action game initially unveiled five years ago, now has a confirmed launch date, affirming its existence.
Five long years have passed since Capcom unveiled a tantalizing sneak peek at one of the first "next-gen" games for the PlayStation 5: Pragmata. Remember the spacey astronaut and adorable little girl? Yeah, we almost forgot about it too. But guess what? Capcom didn't abandon the project. Pragmata is officially back from the brink of oblivion, slated for a 2026 release. Hooray, right?
Wasting no time, a new trailer showcased during the State of Play event confirmed the exciting news and accompanied it with a cheeky, "It's real xD." If you've been clinging onto the faintest thread of hope for this game, it's time to dust off your PS5.
As you might expect, the trailer showcased by Capcom makes a splashy appearance on the PlayStation platform, but it's also confirmed for Steam. So PC gamers rejoice, you're not being left out in the cold. Capcom describes the game as a science fiction action adventure with a unique hacking twist - and the trailer gives a glimpse of the android character, Diana, hacking enemy robots. A cool fact? Diana tags along with the astronaut protagonist, Hugh, often perched on his shoulder, adding an endearing element to the action and platforming gameplay, featuring jetpacks.
Though the vendors of Pragmata haven't been quite as forthcoming with details, the glimmer of a firm release date suggests we'll start to see more updates soon.
