Two million people have already downloaded the demo for Capcom’s upcoming sci-fi game, Pragmata.
Pragmata Sketchbook — the free slice of the game that offers players across all platforms (PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S) — gives players a taste of the “tactile combat system that fully engages both sides of your brain,” as well as what it’s like to explore the lunar research station, including its hacking gameplay.
“Hugh, look — I can’t believe millions of people are excited for our game!” protagonist Diana tells her companion on social media. “Pragmata has reached two million wishlists, and two million demo downloads. Thank you so much for all your support.”

If you’ve yet to give it a go, there’s still time. In fact, Capcom teases that even though some contents of the demo will differ in the final version of the game, it’s worth replaying the demo, as “you might discover new things,” and Diana will have an illustration for you upon completion.
Pragmata is an all-new sci-fi action adventure with its own unique hacking twist. Set in the near future, protagonists Hugh and Diana must work together as they make their way through the cold lunar research station.
Capcom kicked off last week’s Capcom Spotlight presentation by sharing a brand-new look at Pragmata, confirming it was “undelaying” the game and moved the release date up from April 24 to April 17, and gave us another look at Pragmata’s Deluxe Edition, which includes the Shelter Variety Pack.
