Pragmata Has Hit A New Sales Milestone In Just 16 Days

That's how we say "good job"! Capcom's brand-new IP Pragmata has gotten off to an excellent start, with the game now surpassing 2 million copies sold in just 16 days.

Like fleshy, diaper-wearing cars, infants in The Sims 4 have been "tuned up", making them faster to feed and change, and it's easier to clean up their poop

Like fleshy, diaper-wearing cars, infants in The Sims 4 have been "tuned up", making them faster to feed and change, and it's easier to clean up their poop
