Capcom has been holding some preview events to showcase its upcoming games on Nintendo Switch 2, and we now have a good look at Pragmata running on the system. Announced just a few months back to be hitting Nintendo’s platform day and date with PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, it was anyone’s guess how well the game would run on the console considering the only RE Engine title available currently is Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess. That port runs decent enough, but will a full-fledged “next-generation” game be too much for the Switch 2? Apparently not if this footage is anything to go on.
Two influencers from Brazil have posted some off-camera footage of Pragmata running both docked and in handheld mode, and the results are impressive. Whatever issues plagued Kunitsu-Gami are gone, and Pragmata looks to run with barely any performance drops. The game is obviously locked to 30 fps, but considering that its visual quality is roughly on-par with the Xbox Series S port, that’s nothing to scoff at. I’m more interested in knowing if mouse controls are available, which would turn this port into a serious contender for the best console conversion.

These videos also set some good expectations for Resident Evil Requiem, which will be releasing at the end of the month. We know that both RE7 and Village run at 60 fps on Switch 2, but Requiem uses a more advanced version of the RE Engine than previous titles. It will likely be locked to 30 fps on Nintendo’s console, which should be fine enough. If it can look as good as Pragmata does in these videos, then I think fans will be happy.
