XBOX

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “XBOX” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by Microsoft Corporation. The registration covers cases for carrying video game consoles and controllers, as well as cases for carrying DVDs, and backpacks, all first used on November 15, 2001. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same categories—portable gaming accessories or related storage cases and backpacks. The record does not give Microsoft control over every use of the word “XBOX”; it is limited to the goods listed. There is no prosecution history indicating a descriptiveness refusal or supplemental registration, so the mark remains on the Principal Register. The latest maintenance event is the renewal noted on April 28, 2024. No oppositions, cancellations, or enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful risk of conflict in the specific goods listed.
