Capcom has once again left a vacant URL in one of its titles, leading to the news that Pragmata now links to Albert Wesker memes after a fan snatched up an available in-game address. This follows a similar incident earlier this year when a domain referenced within Resident Evil: Requiem was purchased by a player who used it to host social media links.
How Pragmately Now Links to Albert Wesker Memes
The recent discovery occurred within Capcom's newly launched title, Pragmata. Russian player Alexander Trisvyatsky spotted the address while exploring the game's environment and decided to register the domain.
"As soon as Pragmata was released, I started playing it and reached the moment where we are shown a 3D-printed New York," Trisvyatsky told IGN. "I looked at a billboard and saw the text, 'A Wesker Production.com.' I opened my browser and typed in aweskerproduction.com; the domain was available, so I quickly registered it."
The fact that Pragmata now links to Albert Wesker memes has turned a simple mistake into a viral moment. The website serves as a humorous tribute to the Resident Evil franchise, featuring several specific elements:
- A scrolling collection of Resident Evil memes focusing on characters like Leon and Wesker.
- A greeting title that reads, "Hello dudes/Darova dudes."
- A footer disclaimer noting the page was created for entertainment purposes only with no affiliation to Capcom.
A Fan-Led Project with 45,000 Hits
Trisvyatsky built the site in mere minutes, adding Google Analytics to monitor the influx of visitors. While he did not expect much traffic, the site has already surpassed 45,000 hits as of this morning.
To ensure clarity, he added a disclaimer stating that all rights belong to Capcom and that the memes belong to their original creators. He also emphasized his intentions, stating: "I have no plans for the domain... I just wanted to have some fun, and it seems it worked."
Trisvyatsky made it clear that he is a regular fan rather than a scammer, noting that he has included no ads or requests for donations. Furthermore, he expressed his willingness to return the URL to the publisher: "I respect Capcom's works, I love their games, and if they ask, I will immediately transfer the domain to them."
The viral nature of Pragmata now links to Albert Wesker memes comes during a massive launch for the new IP. Capcom announced that Pragmata sold 1 million copies within just two days of release. The game has already earned an 8/10 review from IGN, which praised its "punchy shooting action" and "creative hacking-puzzle gameplay."
