"The Last Guardian's" Trademark in the US has been Abandoned but, it Appears this was Due to an Administrative Error at PlayStation America, as Sony has Confirmed to GameSpot that, the Project is still in Development. According to Documentation on the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the Group Sent Sony a Notice in July Last Year, Informing that, the Trademark Needed to be Extended. Although Sony has, since 2013, Habitually Extended the Game's Trademark, it Made No Action following the Most Recent Request. As such, the Trademark was Cancelled. However, amid Speculation Surrounding What this Means for the Protracted and Troubled Project, Sony has Told GameSpot that, it "can confirm that the Last Guardian is still in development".
