Capcom’s Pragmata Suffers Another Delay
Capcom’s eerie and dystopian sci-fi adventure game, Pragmata, may have slipped your mind. However, the latest teaser for the game has announced that it will not meet its 2023 release date, giving you another opportunity to forget about it.
“It is with a heavy heart that we have to further delay the release of Pragmata,” the development team wrote at the end of the game’s new trailer. “Our team is currently working hard to make the best possible game, but we need more time.”
As the post suggests, this is actually the second time Pragmata’s release has been delayed. Announced in 2020, Pragmata was teased with a cinematic trailer where a soldier and a young girl explore an abandoned city before ending up on the surface of the moon. The original teaser hinted at a dystopian future and a close relationship between the main characters, but little else. About a year later, Capcom released a video in which a young girl apologized for the game’s delay. This year’s trailer is similar, but at least it shows some gameplay.
We now know that the young girl’s name is Diana, and she appears to be under the protection of her heavily armored friend. Together, we’ll see them battle robotic creatures, explore futuristic environments, and team up for quick piggyback rides. While the soldier does most of the pair’s battles in the trailer, it also reveals that Diana has special abilities.
What are those powers? What are these two characters doing on the moon? What happened to the rest of humanity? These questions will have to wait. The Pragmata team didn’t set a new release window for the game, instead promising to do their best to “make sure the final product is worth your patience.”
Pragmata is scheduled to be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and PC game platforms.
