It&#8217;s far too early to say what&#8217;s next for the series, of course, but that doesn&#8217;t stop us from wondering what the future might hold, so it was only a matter of time before the big sequel discussion would pop up.<\/p>\n<p>This is the topic that was put to Pragmata&#8217;s director, Yonghee Cho, and producer, Naoto Oyama, in a recent interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamesradar.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/of-course-the-director-of-pragmata-would-love-a-sequel-but-hes-not-the-only-one-who-decides-that-at-capcom\/\">GamesRadar<\/a>. Naturally, neither had anything concrete to say on the matter \u2014 Oyama gave the typical response of being &#8220;focused on Pragmata itself&#8221; \u2014 but that didn&#8217;t rule out sequel talk completely.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Of course I&#8217;d love to see a sequel,&#8221; Cho answered, &#8220;but I&#8217;m not the only one who decides, so unfortunately I can&#8217;t really comment beyond that&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>According to GamesRadar, the PR team present in the interview encouraged Cho to clarify that this was his &#8220;own personal opinion on the matter&#8221;, with producer Oyama laughingly adding, &#8220;Please don&#8217;t take that line out of context&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>And out of context we won&#8217;t take it. This is far from a confirmation that a sequel is in the works \u2014 heck, Cho makes clear that he&#8217;s not the only one with a say on the matter \u2014 but still, it&#8217;s nice to hear that the director would be on board if (and that&#8217;s a big <em>if<\/em>) the opportunity should manifest itself down the line.<\/p>\n<p>We certainly hope that there&#8217;s more to see from Pragmata in years to come, because we had a wonderful time with the game on Switch 2 last month. &#8220;The adventures of Hugh and Diana stand as another excellent Switch 2 port from Capcom,&#8221; we said in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/reviews\/nintendo-switch-2\/pragmata\">our 9\/10 review<\/a>, &#8220;and hopefully mark the beginning of a new blockbuster franchise&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s just let the devs have a little break before diving straight back in, shall we?<\/p>\n<p><!-- cache: html:nintendolife.com\/ssl\/nintendo-switch-2\/related-articles:199572,201312,200683 @ 1779988107 --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"block object-related\"> <\/aside>\n<p><em>Would you like to see a Pragmata sequel in the future?
