00:05Welcome to Mojo Plays, and today we're looking at all those things even Edith couldn't find.
00:10Hidden throughout this brilliant game is a ton of references and secrets waiting to be discovered.
00:15These are 10 hidden secrets and easter eggs in Pragmata. Let's go.
00:19Before we continue, we publish content all week long, so be sure to subscribe and ring the bell to get
00:25notified of our latest videos.
00:27Cabin's Photobomb.
00:34One of the funniest little secrets in Pragmata involves Cabin, who quickly became a fan favourite thanks to being equal
00:40parts helpful and equal parts cute.
00:42Okay, 75% cute, 25% helpful.
00:44Throughout the story, Cabin constantly shows up with upgrades, unlocks, and enough weird energy to feel like he wandered in
00:49from a completely different game.
00:51But the developers apparently decided that wasn't enough Cabin for one adventure.
00:54If you leave the game sitting on the Press Any Button screen, for around 4 minutes without touching anything, a
01:00hidden easter egg eventually plays out.
01:02Out of nowhere, Cabin casually strolls across the screen and photobombs Hugh and Diana while they're sitting in front of
01:07that peaceful, cloudy background like they're trying to take a serious promotional photo.
01:11It's such a small, pointless little detail, but so is Cabin, I guess.
01:23Another great little detail hidden in Pragmata involves Cabin, again.
01:27Whoops.
01:27If players spend enough time hanging around and watching Cabin's screen, there's a chance it will suddenly display an 8
01:33-bit version of Hugh, complete with tiny jump animations and sound effects that feel a little bit familiar, a little
01:39Mega Man-ish.
01:40The reference is so obvious that long-time Capcom fans instantly picked up on it.
01:45It's especially funny because before Pragmata fully revealed itself, a bunch of fans convinced themselves the game was somehow secretly
01:51tied to Mega Man in some bizarre way.
01:54Turns out, it wasn't, but this easter egg definitely feels like Capcom cheekily acknowledging those old rumours.
02:00Honestly, seeing any kind of Mega Man love from Capcom nowadays feels weirdly emotional considering how Capcom seems to act
02:07like it never existed.
02:08Thanks for giving us hope for a reboot, Capcom.
02:18Ghouls and Ghosts
02:25Mega Man isn't the only franchise Capcom has forgotten about.
02:28One of the most unexpected easter eggs in Pragmata appears in the shopping district, where players can spot a giant
02:34movie poster advertising a film called Ghouls and Ghosts.
02:37For long-time Capcom fans, that name immediately stands out because it's a direct reference to the classic Ghouls and
02:42Ghosts series, the legendary sequel to Ghosts and Goblins, that traumatised generations of players with its brutal difficulty.
02:48What makes the reference so funny is how completely random it feels inside the world of Pragmata.
02:53Of all the franchises Capcom could have nodded to, seeing this old-school nightmare platformer casually turned into an in
02:59-universe movie was definitely not in anybody's 2026 bingo card.
03:03It's the kind of deep-cut reference that instantly makes older fans point at the screen like that DiCaprio meme.
03:15Resident Evil 3
03:20I know we've only talked about references to other games so far, but the shopping district in Pragmata is basically
03:24a treasure chest for Capcom references, and one of the funniest examples is a poster advertising an in-universe game
03:31called Resident Evil 3.
03:32Even the title alone feels like Capcom throwing two of its biggest franchises into a blender and calling it a
03:38day.
03:39Resident Evil and Devil May Cry are the reference points, but the deeper reference hidden is the artwork and what
03:44really makes this easter egg special.
03:46The character on the poster is posed on top of a mountain of corpses and skulls, while holding a shotgun
03:51in a stance that looks extremely familiar to FPS fans.
03:54That's because the image is very clearly inspired by the cover art for Doom, especially the original classic artwork mixed
04:01with elements from Doom 2016.
04:03Many players missed this, thinking it was a dual reference.
04:05Nope, it's a triple reference.
04:18One of the cooler little details in Pragmata comes from the REM collectibles, which unlock different activities and decorations for
04:25Diana inside the shelter.
04:26Some of them are just fun cosmetic additions, but Capcom clearly couldn't resist sneaking in a few references for long
04:32-time fans.
04:33The beach-themed REM is a perfect example.
04:37It adds things like sandcastles, water guns and parasols to the shelter, letting Diana mess around a little between all
04:43the existential sci-fi casts.
04:44What the f*** is that?
04:45The red and white design is basically identical to the Umbrella Corporation logo from Resident Evil.
04:50It's a subtle reference compared to some of the game's louder easter eggs, but fans will recognize it instantly.
04:56I actually gasped, thinking the games were linked, before the logical part of my brain kicked in and I said,
05:01it's an easter egg, moron.
05:04The real ocean has fishies in it, right?
05:07Wesker Production
05:13At this point, Pragmata almost feels like Capcom secretly challenged players to spot as many Resident Evil references as possible,
05:20because yet another one is hidden away in the game's futuristic city areas.
05:23This time, the easter egg appears in the massive Times Square-inspired section.
05:28Near the giant comms tower, players can spot a scrolling billboard crawler advertising something called the Wesker Production website,
05:35which for RA fans is like someone saying a slur at you and being expected to keep a straight face.
05:40For Resident Evil fans, seeing the name Wesker immediately sets off every possible alarm bell.
05:45Between this and the earlier Umbrella references,
05:47the game starts giving off the vibe that somebody in the background is absolutely about to start unethical bio experiments
05:52at any moment.
05:53What makes the reference especially fun is how subtle it is compared to some of the game's other nods.
06:00Diana goes to X
06:07Capcom's marketing for Pragmata has somehow turned Diana into a tiny cyber gremlin
06:12who spends her free time hacking other franchises just to bully fans online,
06:16and honestly, it's been weirdly entertaining.
06:18The official Pragmata account for X recently posted in-character as Diana,
06:24claiming she gained access to new data after hacking mysterious objects,
06:27alongside images referencing franchises like Monster Hunter, Resident Evil, and Onimusha.
06:32From there, Diana started randomly appearing across Capcom's social media,
06:36like an overexcited internet goblin armed with classified files.
06:40Some posts are harmless little jokes,
06:42like Diana reacting to characters or memes from the different series,
06:45but others directly target the fanbase themselves.
06:47Resident Evil fans especially got roasted.
06:50One post jokes about Chris Redfield punching the boulder in Resident Evil 5,
06:54treating one of the franchise's dumbest iconic moments like a completely normal workplace incident.
07:02Hunting some monsters.
07:08Throughout the game, you can uncover files and emails that flesh out the world
07:12and make the abandoned facilities feel like real places people once worked in
07:16before everything inevitably went wrong.
07:18One of the best hidden jokes appears in the Lunar Mines area inside the Crane Operation Yard building.
07:24If players find a tablet on the second floor and read an email titled,
07:28What the Hell?, they'll read a conversation between co-workers discussing increased security checks on employee devices.
07:33One character complains they're being forced to delete a game they secretly installed,
07:37sadly saying goodbye to their glorious record of monster hunts.
07:41It's an obvious nod to Monster Hunter and only Capcom's 600th self-reference in the game.
07:51Secret Ending
07:57Did you know that there's a pretty substantial secret ending to the game?
08:01Getting there requires far more than simply beating the main story once.
08:04First, players need to complete the campaign on any difficulty to unlock the unknown signal content.
08:09Then, continue that same save file instead of jumping into New Game Plus.
08:13From there, the game basically hands you a giant completionist checklist.
08:17You'll need to fully clear every major sector,
08:19complete all hidden chamber challenges,
08:21defeat the upgraded MK-2 bosses,
08:23equip the black box mod,
08:25and beat the enhanced version of 8.
08:27Thankfully, Capcom shows a tiny bit of mercy by not forcing players to collect every mini cabin figure
08:32or finish every simulation challenge.
08:34And once that's all done,
08:35you still have to push through the final areas again.
08:38After the credits roll and Diana's beach scene finishes,
08:40the screen fades to black before Cabin suddenly speaks up with
08:43Welcome Back, What's This, Travelling Alone Today?
08:46It's a creepy little final tease that hints that Hugh is still kicking.
08:56Welcome Back!
08:57What's This, Travelling Alone Today?
09:01It's real.
09:02The future.
09:04It isn't just a dream.
09:06It's a promise.
09:08One of the best hidden details in Pragmata is a tiny fourth-wall breaking joke
09:12that long-time fans instantly recognized after years of waiting for the game to finally exist.
09:17Inside the solar power plant area,
09:19players can spot a simple piece of paper sitting on one of the bunks with the words
09:232026 It's Real XD scribbled across it.
09:26If you jumped into Pragmata casually,
09:28it probably just looks like a random doodle left behind by a worker trying to survive another shift.
09:33But for anyone who followed the game's development,
09:35it's actually a hilarious self-aware reference from Capcom themselves.
09:39Pragmata was originally revealed back in 2020 with a planned 2022 release window,
09:44before essentially disappearing into the gaming void for years.
09:47Fans genuinely started wondering whether the project had quietly died somewhere behind the scenes.
09:52Capcom suddenly resurfaced with a new trailer confirming the game was alive and targeting a 2026 release,
09:58ending the trailer with that exact same image.
10:23linking the trailer with a new trailer for evidence!
10:25The following video reminds me when set al because it never noticed up,
