Capcom’s latest sci-fi video game, Pragmata, takes you on a journey that is on the shorter side but full of emotions. This is the reason, despite it being released over the weekend, a lot of folks have already reached the default ending. But you might or might not know that the game also has a secret ending. It is also referred to as Pragmata‘s true ending. In this guide, we will tell you how you can reach the secret ending in Pragmata.
How to Unlock Pragmata Secret Ending
The first step to reaching the secret ending in Pragmata is to complete the story once. This will unlock the Lunatic difficulty, New Game+, and a new Unknown Signal mode. This new mode is accessible through the game’s main menu. It will load your completed game save file, but right before facing the final boss. It will allow you to take a tram to a new secret place called the Hidden Chamber.
You will meet a robotic character, Big Cabin, who will tell you about simulation missions that you need to complete. These missions are granted by 10 pods, but you must fulfill two conditions to unlock them. The first requirement is to 100% each sector of the game, and the second is to defeat Mk. II bosses of each sector. These bosses will be harder versions of the fights you had with them during the first playthrough. In short, you have five sectors to 100% and five bosses to defeat to unlock all 10 simulation missions.
Once you complete all sim missions, you will earn special rewards, including Black Box mod. Equip this mod to Hugh and go back to the Central Port level. You will have to fight and defeat the final boss’s enhanced version to get Pragmata’s secret ending.
Here is a summarized version of the guide for quick reference:
- Complete the Pragmata campaign once.
- Access the Unknown Signal mode from the game’s main menu.
- Visit the Hidden Chamber using the tram.
- 100% each sector and defeat enhanced versions of Mk. II bosses of each sector to unlock simulation missions.
- Complete simulation missions to get special rewards, including Black Box mod.
- Equip the mod to Hugh and visit the Central Port level.
- Fight the enhanced version of the final boss and defeat it to get the secret ending.
Conclusion
Pragmata‘s secret ending has a straightforward process to follow. The only time-consuming aspect is collecting everything for 100% completion in each sector. Defeating tougher versions of bosses will depend on your skills and the upgrades you unlocked during the first playthrough. Since there is no major roadblock or grind involved, we suggest that players should go for the secret, aka true ending, of the game. It will also give a different perspective to the story’s conclusion.
