EPIC

What this record means

The record shows a live, Principal Register registration (Reg. No. 2168887) owned by Epic Games, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and it has been renewed as of the May 03 2018 status date. The registration covers computer game software for PCs, home video game consoles and arcade‑based consoles (Class 009) and computer development and design services for computer game software (Class 042). A similar name used in connection with video‑game software or related development services would raise the closest record‑based concern, because those are the exact goods and services listed. The record does not give Epic Games control over every possible use of the word “EPIC” in other unrelated fields. There is no prosecution history indicating a Supplemental Register filing, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use “EPIC” for gaming‑related products or services.
