Capcom is set to release its new sci-fi third-person action game, Pragmata, building on its recent successes. The game features a unique gameplay mechanic where players control two characters: Hugh, a spaceman in a bulky suit, and Diana, an android on his back who hacks enemies.
Players explore a mysterious lunar research station, battling aggressive robots. To damage these foes, Diana must hack them through a minigame while robots advance. The enemies, designed to be intentionally unsettling, include humanlike Walkers that camouflage and grotesque, toddler-like creatures with laser saws.
