Trademark renewals have been known to carry little in the way of substance. Often they simply don?t offer any worthwhile insight about a franchise?s or product?s future. Yet, a few Gran Turismo-related renewals may provide further evidence that backs long-running rumors and speculation. Just recently, Sony filed trademarks for the Gran Turismo logo, Grand Turismo?s brand name, and developer Polyphony Digital. Even more compelling is that each of the three were filed on June 3rd, the original rumored date for PlayStation 5?s postponed reveal event.
These filings seem to bolster recent bits of speculation surrounding the racing series. Last month, racing cockpit manufacturer Next Level Racing incidentally outed Gran Turismo 7 with a very slick logo design in a since-deleted Instagram post. In a strange but unsurprising turn of events, the manufacturer quickly removed its post and denied knowledge of a new Gran Turismo.
