The story of Pragmata revolves around Hugh Williams, separated from his team after an incident on a lunar research station. He’s discovered by an android named Diana, and following a run-in with the hostile robots patrolling the station, he realizes that she’s the key to lowering their defenses.

As revealed in the gameplay, players will need to complete a short puzzle to remove a robot’s defenses as Diana while simultaneously shooting and dodging as Hugh. Her hacking abilities can also interact with the environment and activate different switches (which is more of a series of button presses). It also showcases a new weapon that generates a field holding enemies in place, which is perfect for managing crowds.

Pragmata is coming to Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC next year. Stay tuned for more details from Gamescom, which runs from August 20th to 24th.
