***** has renewed its trademark for Skies of Arcadia.

, ***** has renewed its trademarks for both Skies of Arcadia and the game’s Japanese title Eternal Arcadia.

It should be stressed that the renewal of a trademark doesn’t necessarily mean that its owner has plans to do anything with it, but it does at least suggest some sort of desire to ensure the IP remains part of its portfolio.

While Skies of Arcadia has never seen a re-release, its protagonist Vyse did appear in 2012 racing game Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, alongside a Skies of Arcadia themed track.

***** is currently in the process of resurrecting a number of its dormant IPs in an attempt to reintroduce them to modern players.

In December 2023, ***** announced that it was developing new entries in the Jet Set Radio, Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, Shinobi and Crazy Taxi series.

Last month, it also confirmed that Like a Dragon developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio is working on a new Virtua Fighter game.
