When you hear that Take-Two is looking to get its hands on the City Stories name, what do you hope it means–a new game in the City Stories series, like the long-awaited (but never announced) San Andreas Stories, or something else entirely?

In that case, it wouldn’t be the first time the name of a GTA game’s DLC was filed for without the GTA name present–Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony’s trademark application, for instance, contains no mention of the GTA name.Īlternatively, the less exciting explanation is that Rockstar and Take-Two may simply be seeking to own the broader City Stories name to go along with the more specific Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories trademarks it already owns. It’s possible this could be related to the upcoming Grand Theft Auto V story DLC we know is coming. This new trademark may or may not represent any plans Take-Two or Rockstar have for a new game in the City Stories series.

The trademark in question was filed for on May 15 and lists Take-Two as the owner (which, it should be noted, is always the case with trademarks involving Rockstar games). Rockstar parent company Take-Two recently filed for a trademark on “City Stories,” a name which suggests a possible relationship with the Grand Theft Auto series.
