Overview
- Capcom’s Pragmata account posted an April Fools’ video on Wednesday that jokingly “confirmed” the game as Mega Man, then ended with a handwritten note that said it was a prank.
- The clip uses Mega Man 2’s credits music and shows protagonist Hugh in a Mega Man‑style suit before revealing his face and cutting to the April Fools’ message.
- Fans responded by asking Capcom to include the outfit in the game, with outlets noting it could appear as a cosmetic if the team chooses to add a nod.
- Capcom has previously said Pragmata is a new IP, and the separate return of Mega Man through Mega Man: Dual Override supports the view that this prank is not a franchise reveal.
- Pragmata launches later this month, and the April 1 gag lands as long‑running theories—sparked by Diana’s blue design and the lunar, machine‑ridden setting—continue to fuel interest.
