Over the last few years, Capcom has had tremendous success with its existing IPs, whether through new entries, remakes, remasters, or game collections. While that’s been great for existing fans, I’ve been wanting the company to take more risks with new ideas. 2024’s Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess was a huge step in that direction, and now with Pragmata, it seems like Capcom has another winner on its hands.
Hugh and Diana
Pragmata follows Hugh, an engineer who, along with his team, is sent to a massive lunar base to investigate a communication blackout. It’s a tried and tested sci-fi premise, and things quickly go wrong for the crew, leaving Hugh to survive on his own, uncover what happened on the base, and find a way back. He’s quickly joined by Diana, an AI humanoid companion who is far more advanced than anything else on the base, with a genuine childlike sense of wonder and an unflinching desire to help him on his mission.
