News of an issue between Remedy and Take-Two hit the internet earlier this week, when a trademark dispute in the United Kingdom was discovered on online filing sites. The dispute raised plenty of eyebrows since it was, in essence, a dispute over the letter 'R,' with Take-Two suggesting that there's "a likelihood of confusion on the part of the public" with how similar the Remedy logo is to that of GTA 6 developer Rockstar Games. And, I mean, the logos are similar - but it's the letter 'R,' man. How different could you make it?
In any case, it seems based on this statement that there's nothing to worry about, everybody's friends, and Remedy can go right on using the letter 'R' for its logo. This version of the Remedy logo was introduced in April 2023, with the company saying "it was time to update and redefine our visual identity to bring more consistency, showcase our evolution over the years, and better express our vision of today's Remedy."
