Capcom has had a busy 2021 with multiple game releases and updates for its many properties. Recently, Capcom released an Integrated report that highlighted some of its games and the updates it has planned such asaResident Evil VillageDLC. The report also mentionedPragmata, a new IP from Capcom.
Pragmatawas announced back in 2020during the PlayStation 5 reveal event as a next-gen title. There isn’t a whole lot known about the game besides what was shown in the trailer that hinted the title will focus on two characters, a little girl and someone wearing an astronaut outfit. It’s a mysterious sci-fi action-adventure game that hasn’t had many announcements until the recent Capcom report.

In the report, Capcom states thatPragmatais making steady progress in its development. Additionally, it appears as though Capcom might be ramping up on developers forPragmata. Capcom shared that it will hire more than 100 new “graduates” and “seasoned mid-career professionals” to aid in Capcom’s growth along with helping create new IPs such asPragmata. Interestingly enough, it looks as though the new sci-fi IP might have a lot of fresh blood working on it as Capcom has also stated that newly hired employees will be given hands-on experience on titles such asPragmata.

The last time Capcom shared information on the new IP was back in January 2021. Originally announced to be coming out in 2022, it was revealed thatPragmatawill be delayed until sometime in 2023during a PlayStation 5 sizzle reel. With Capcom sharing thatPragmatais making steady progress, and the ramping up of developers, it looks as though 2023 will actually be the release date for the game.
Still, it’s far too early to tell how the project will turn out. It’s promising to hear that steady progress is being made though as no news onPragmatawas starting to worry fans that the title might end up beingscrapped or disappear likeDeep Down. Thankfully that’s the not case and even thoughPragmatawon’t be releasing next year, Capcom still has numerous titles and updates planned for 2022.
Funny enough,Pragmataisn’t the only PlayStation 5 title revealed during the 2020 event that hasn’t been released yet. Although atrailer forLittle Devil Insidewas revealeda couple of days ago that explained some of the mechanics of the game further, the title still doesn’t have a release date. Additionally, whileStrayhad a trailer a couple of months ago the game doesn’t have a definitive release date, instead, saying it will release in early 2022. Hopefully, these PlayStation 5 titles receive no further delays.
Pragmatais currently in development for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
