Released last month, Capcom’s Pragmata has quickly become a success, with the company announcing it had hit 1 million sales right after release and that it crossed the 2 million mark soon after. Starring the dynamic duo of a cosmonaut engineer and a child android working together to take down renegade robots on the moon, it leans into a quirky gameplay style that’s something of a real-time combat-puzzle, equal parts hacking game and shooter. It’s also developed a bit of a reputation for being the latest addition to the “sad dad” pantheon, typified by games like The Last of Us and the recent God of War entries.
