XBOXSerial 78975181 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: Microsoft Corporation
Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus
Class 018 -
Filed May 01, 2002
Registered May 11, 2004
The record shows that the mark “XBOX” is no longer live; it was cancelled under Section 8 because the registrant, Microsoft Corporation, failed to file an acceptable declaration. The cancellation occurred on December 17, 2010. The mark had been registered on the Principal Register in 2004 for two classes: class 009, covering cases for carrying video game consoles and controllers and cases for carrying DVDs, and class 018, covering backpacks. A similar name would raise the closest concern for products that are cases for video‑game consoles or backpacks, especially those used in the gaming or entertainment context. The record does not give Microsoft control over every use of the word “XBOX.” The prosecution history shows a series of notices of suit and a final cancellation, with no evidence of enforcement actions after the cancellation. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status means there is no active registration to oppose, but the goods listed in the record still represent the most relevant area of potential concern.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
