Capcom is now readying a new action-adventure title called 'Pragmata' that is set to launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and Microsoft Windows come 2022.
Like many other video games that are being developed for the next generation consoles, Pragmata is characterized by stunning hyperreal graphics that provide a more immersive experience than ever. The details surrounding the release are still limited, however the game's teaser trailer reveals a dystopian world that seems to be set in the future—judging by the space gear and holographs that are shown in a seemingly empty city. Before long, a young girl is transported into space, landing on the moon and looking back on Earth.
As Xbox explains, "the game will take full advantage of next-generation platform features, and as a completely new IP for Capcom, the company aims to establish Pragmata as one of its core brands"
