If I had a nickel for every videogame set in an extraterrestrial location or protagonist who is forced to look after a child NPC, but then slowly comes to rely on them practically and emotionally as both parties form a sort of impromptu kinship with one another I'd have so many nickels I'd probably be able to stop writing about all of them. In walks Pragmata to weigh down my pockets even further.

Pragmata is Capcom's newest game. With no prior series to weigh it down, it's the publisher's chance for a fresh take. While it doesn't have a particularly new setting or character dynamic going for it, it still managed to grab my attention during my hands-on preview, and it's all thanks to its combat.
