The floor at Tokyo Game Show 2025 might not technically be open, but this year's annual event has already kicked off through the multiple showcases that have premiered, like the RGG Summit and Kojima Productions Beyond the Strand presentation. Today, you can add Capcom's presentation to the list, where a new gameplay trailer for its upcoming third-person action game, Pragmata, premiered, but it unfortunately did so without a proper release date.
The new trailer shows off what will be your shelter in Pragmata, a safe zone where you're able to have a rest between fights, and upgrade your armour and abilities. Your upgrades will let you deal more damage, and have Diana hack multiple enemies at once. You'll also be able to unlock new weapons at your shelter, all of which is pretty run-of-the-mill linear action game fare.
Its familiarity isn't a problem, of course, but it remains an upsetting fact that we don't have a proper date to look forward to. The trailer ends with its previously confirmed 2026 release window, while other major releases from Capcom, like Resident Evil Requiem, have had a date set for months now.
Hopefully, we'll get a proper release date reveal soon. When Pragmata was first announced all the way back in 2020, it was a big mystery project that we didn't really know much about. Then it was delayed, and the radio silence around it started to feel like it would go down in history as a game that never actually made it out the door.
But now that it feels like it's actually close to release, and like it'll be an intriguing blend of quick puzzle solving and third-person shooting combat, it's all the more frustrating to still not have a date to look forward to.
When Wccftech checked out Pragmata at Gamescom 2025, Francesco De Meo wrote, "While opinion is divided between action game fans regarding the game's unique combination of action and puzzle game elements, I feel that once PRAGMATA is in their hands sometime next year, the general consensus will be generally positive, expecially if the game's quality will be on the same level as that of the Gamescom 2025 demo."
