New Pragmata trailer at Capcom Showcase shows off gameplay snippets

An explosive and action-packed gameplay trailer for Pragmata was dropped at the Capcom Showcase 2023 and featured an unnamed protagonist and a little girl named Diana, who seems rather preoccupied at the start of the trailer. She has special powers and will accompany the player, assisting them in battles during their journey across the beautiful but dangerous game world.

Based on the trailer, the game will be played mostly from a third-person perspective and heavily focus on action, much like Capcom's Devil May Cry series. The trailer shows fights against robotic foes, complete with perfect dodge and melee mechanics.

A boss fight sequence against a giant mechanical unit atop a space station orbiting the Earth shows off what seems to be minor melee combat and enemy targeting systems. Furthermore, players can also expect a variety of futuristic firearms to add to their arsenal, judging from the cinematic at the start of the trailer.

Midway through the trailer, players are greeted with a message from Diana, with the words “very sorry” scribbled down on a piece of paper - indicating an extended delay to its official launch. Pragmata is in active development for PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5, and will likely launch post-2023 at this rate, with further delays not entirely out of the question either.
