The game is anticipated for release, with a potential launch in early 2027, though the exact date is still "to be announced" on Steam.

Now that we’re living in a KPop Demon Hunters and Jujutsu Kaisen world, yokai-smiting action game Kemuri should be a slam dunk

Kemuri is a co-op action game focused on hunting mythical demons in urban environments, developed by Ikumi Nakamura's studio. The first gameplay trailer was revealed during Sony's State of Play event, showcasing vibrant animation and dynamic action. The game aims to provide a multiplayer experience similar to the Dark Souls series, featuring unique hunters and yokai. Questions remain about its structural design, including whether it will be open-world or mission-based and if it will prioritize campaign or loot systems. Kemuri's launch is timed with a cultural interest in demon hunting, and it is scheduled for release on PlayStation 5 in 2027, with hopes for a PC version.

Pragmata’s developers take all your comparisons to Xbox 360 shooters as a ‘huge compliment’, though I’m not convinced by their theory for why players are making the connection

Pragmata has a resemblance to action games from the Xbox 360 and PS3 era, which the developers at Capcom, including director Yonghee Cho and producer Naoto Oyama, view positively. Oyama noted that the nostalgia may come from a time when many developers were experimenting with new game concepts. Pragmata offers a linear, single-player action experience, which is rare in today's gaming landscape, and is part of a trend this year with other successful titles like Resident Evil: Requiem and 007: First Light. The game features a unique combination of third-person shooting and hacking minigames, which has received positive feedback, particularly for its tile maze mechanic used in combat.
