Announcing Pragmata's Release on Multiple Platforms with a New York Times Square Setting and Massive Phase Boss

Capcom announced the release date for Pragmata with a trailer at The Game Awards. Set on the moon in a near-future world, the game will be released on April 24, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. Players will team up with characters named Hugh and Diana, an android girl. A demo of Pragmata is available now on Steam. The new trailer reveals a change from the lunar base shown in recent trailers, showcasing instead a futuristic Times Square in New York, a setting familiar to those who recall the initial 2020 trailer. Here, players will encounter a massive phase boss. Devil May Cry veterans are developing the game, describing it as a zombie action title similar to Lollipop Chainsaw.

New York Times Square Hosts Pragmata's Launch Approach with Demo and Firm Release Date

In related gaming news from The Game Awards: A former Valve developer suggests Steam's dominance in game discovery may be detrimental to the industry. Critics praise Skate Story as a beautiful and unique skateboarding game, lauded for stylish visuals in a grungy underworld. Octopath Traveler is celebrated as the strongest entry in the retro-styled JRPG series, thanks to its tactical battles. However, reviewers criticize both Metroid Prime 4: Beyond and Routine for great atmosphere undermined by dull overworlds and awkward psychic abilities. Separately, a co-creator of Stranger Things has hinted at a long six-day wait for the season 5 finale. With a firm release date and a playable demo, Pragmata's launch is drawing closer.

Game info

Official Name: Capcom Fighting All-Stars
Brief Summary: The shadow of fear was approaching Metro City. A man only known as Death, was running around Metro City with a bomb. The bomb was codenamed "Laughter Sun". Mayor Mike Haggar contacted the characters listed above in order to locate and defeat Death and then defuse the bomb. Codes were needed to disarm the bomb, and that is where the Code Holders subtitle of the game comes into play. D.D. and his teammates, Rook and Ingrid, were the Code Holders. Their codes are Ogre, Fallen Angel, and Isis. The game had a time limit, and depending of how long the player took to finish the game, the ending would vary. Originally, Capcom Fighting All-Stars was planned to be a 2D sequel to Capcom vs. SNK 2: Mark of the Millennium 2001, before being converted to 3D. However, due to SNK's financial troubles and restructuring, the title was redesigned as a Capcom-only crossover with twenty former SNK members designing it, using the models previously built for the original title. Like SNK's KOF: Maximum Impact games, it was designed to translate a 2D fighting game series into 3D. This was done previously in the Street Fighter EX series, which Capcom co-produced with Arika. Capcom beta-tested the game, but after negative feedback from players and more months in development, the game was canceled in August 2003. According to an interview with former The King of Fighters director Toyohisa Tanabe, a secret character from Tanabe's old company (SNK) was set to be playable in Capcom Fighting All Stars.. While not confirmed, the figure bears a heavy resemblance to K' or Kyo Kusanagi.
