Mysterious Bandai Namco Trademark Has People Talking About a New Fighting Game
Bandai Namco has registered a video game trademark called “Fatal Ichor”, prompting speculation that it could be linked to an unannounced fighting game. The possibility has drawn attention because the company has been recruiting for a fighting or action-fighting project, though the trademark alone does not confirm what the game is.
The article says theories include a new SoulCalibur, but considers the name a poor fit; it also suggests it could relate to anime-inspired properties such as Code Vein, Sword Art Online or Gundam Rogue Orbit. No connection has been established, and the trademark could concern something else entirely. More evidence may emerge in the coming months.
In short
- Bandai Namco registered the name “Fatal Ichor”.
- Fans suspect a link to an unannounced fighting game.
- The trademark gives no confirmation of what it is.
