Watch Dogs has not been cancelled despite trademark rumors

Watch Dogs has not been cancelled, despite numerous reports following the discovery of a trademark lapse. Ubisoft Montreal disputed the rumors via Twitter, where the developers said they are still putting the finishing touches on the game.

“I can assure you that Watch_Dogs is still being polished as we speak,” reads the Tweet.

The rumor mill fired up when the Watch Dogs Trademark was abandoned on February 1st, 2014. Coupled with the recent delays, it started a rumor that the game had been cancelled, or possibly renamed.

It’s still unclear why Ubisoft abandoned the trademark, but if Ubisoft Montreal’s tweet is to be taken as fact, Watch Dogs is still very much a video game due out later this year.
