Take-Two is known for not letting anything pass when it comes to its intellectual property. Some are justified while others can make you question the company's logic. As the creator of games like Alan Wake and Control, Remedy, celbrates its new logo, Take-Two seems to believe that it looks like Rockstar Games' logo.

Take-Two Goes After Remedy Entertainment

The parent company behind Rockstar Games have filed a dispute against Remedy Entertainment claiming that its logo is too similar to the GTA V developer. Weirdly enough, the only thing the two have in common is the letter "R."

Still, Take-Two doesn't see it that way. It's not just one logo as well. The video game developer giant is filing for infringement for the sole logo with the distorted "R," along with the same logo that bears the company's name, as reported by Engadget.

The complaint says that the similarity could cause "confusion by the public." Remedy, on the other hand, explained the the logo was a "refreshed visual identity," as it already had more games under its belt.

Previously, it showed a bullet in the "R" to represent its earliest game, Max Payne, but the company has since released other recognizable titles. Therefore, they have change the logo as well, which reflects other popular titles like Alan Wake and Control.

"[T]he Remedy of now is much bigger than a single game; we have a whole portfolio of games, new and old," says the studio. It's a good logo, which looks as if the "R" has been distorted in a shattered mirror.

Rockstar Games can easily be distinguished from the new logo, especially since it bears the iconic star attached to the edge of the "R." It is also often a black letter with a yellow background, one which both fans and casual gamers know by heart.

Take-Two Watches Modders Too

It's not just big companies that Take-Two has their eyes on. Back in 2021, the company filed a lawsuit against a team of modders after they created a project where they reverse engineered the source code for GTA 3 and GTA Vice City.

Take-Two eventually dismissed the lawsuit and settled out of the legal system, as reported by Dextero. Despite that, it might not be a win for the defendants still, as it will mean that they have to pay for legal fees that have added up in the duration of the case.

Even though the company did not go further with the case, that does not mean that current or future modders are safe. Take-Two says that they still intend to "hunt down the "remaining unnamed defendants," which proabbly applies to other modders as well.

Neither the video game company nor the defendants revealed how much the settlement amount was, but the initially cost that Take-Two claimed duting the case was $300,000. It's unknown whether the charges were close to the price mentioned.
