What this record means
The record shows a pending application for “EPIC GAMES STORE” owned by Epic Games, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and the USPTO lists the status as suspended as of May 26 2026 after a suspension check was completed. The application covers a broad set of gaming‑related offerings: class 009 includes video game software, downloadable game programs and virtual‑reality or augmented‑reality game software; class 035 covers on‑line retail store services featuring game software and electronic commerce; class 038, 041, 042 and 045 add entertainment webcasts, streaming, information services, custom web pages and online social networking in the fields of games, video games and e‑sports. A similar name used for anything in those categories would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside gaming or e‑sports are farther from the listed scope but not automatically free of risk. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “Epic,” “Games,” or “Store.” No prosecution history events are shown, and there are no visible enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a name that will appear in any of the listed gaming‑related services.
