Fans looking forward to Capcom’s upcoming sci-fi shooter Pragmata got some surprising details during including a release date and a brand new system release.
Announced during The Game Awards 2025, Pragmata will launch on April 24th, 2026, for all current gen systems—PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S PC (via Steam) and now Nintendo Switch 2. The trailer also showed off a ton of new action players can anticipate within the game, including intense shootouts with gargantuan robots.
Pragmata looks to combine intense action platforming with third-person shooting. In a mix of intense shootouts in tight environments and colossal battles in half-destroyed cities. Players will control two characters: a soldier named Hugh and a little girl named Diana. Combining their unique abilities, players will hack through enemy robots’ armour so Hugh can destroy them with a mixture of guns and melee abilities.
The trailer also showcased a clear emotional connection between the two, as Hugh tells Diana a bit about his life on Earth before whatever cataclysm led to the downfall of the Lunar base where the game is set. Several moments within the trailer showed Hugh fighting hard to protect Diana, suggesting the game will lean heavily on the parental themes made popular by games like The Last of Us and God of War 2016.
