Another sci-fi third-person shooter may not sound too enticing on the surface, but Capcom's new game Pragmata is an example of how a single idea can go a long way in distinguishing a game from the rest of the pack. Here’s the thing – in Pragmata you don’t just damage your enemies by shooting them, you have to hack them to open up their weaknesses. The way this works is by aiming down sights and engaging in a hacking minigame where you navigate a five-by-five grid using the face buttons to draw a path that connects specific nodes together. And you have to do this in real-time. Based on a 20-minute hands-on demo, it's fun and intense, and hopefully this idea can stay interesting throughout the game when it releases sometime in 2026.
