Just a few weeks after revealing that action adventure game Pragmata had sold 1 million copies in just two days, Capcom is back with another sales update: it's now sold over 2 million copies in just 16 days.
In the announcement, Capcom attributed the success to marketing initiatives such as the playable demo, plus an aggressive campaign to boost visibility of the all-new IP. The developer also believes the emotional, narrative-driven story on top of its 'unique' gameplay has solidified its position in Capcom's storied portfolio, alongside juggernaut franchises like Resident Evil and Devil May Cry. Capcom USA's chief operating officer, Rob Dyer, recently teased that Pragmata could be spun out into a multi-title franchise.
An all-new science fiction action-adventure with its own unique hacking twist, Pragmata is set in the near future as protagonists Hugh and his android companion Diana must work together as they make their way through the cold lunar research station. IGN's Pragmata review returned an 8/10, highlighting the punchy shooting action and creative hacking-puzzle gameplay mechanic. The story may seem like an afterthought, but its sci-fi drama gives enough to see it all the way through and experience this satisfying third-person shooter.
