Capcom says Pragmata will likely get a sequel following staggering sales
Capcom has indicated that a sequel to Pragmata is highly likely, following unexpectedly strong sales of the studio's first new original IP in years. The confirmation, reported by Bloomberg, suggests Capcom sees potential for the game to become a long-term franchise alongside established series such as Resident Evil and Devil May Cry, potentially encouraging the publisher to invest further in original titles rather than relying solely on existing brands.
Pragmata has sold roughly 2.5 million copies, a strong result for a new franchise, particularly as it launched not long after Resident Evil Requiem was still performing well across platforms. Capcom corporate officer Yoshikazu Shimauchi said the game's momentum exceeded internal expectations, with the company crediting its gameplay, the popularity of protagonist Diana, and a strong pre-launch marketing campaign for its success.
