Capcom trademarks 'Fighters of Capcom'

Capcom has trademarked "Fighters of Capcom," implying a possible cross-over game among its own properties.

Capcom's fighting characters have crossed paths with the X-Men, the broader Marvel universe, Tekken, SNK, Namco, and Tatsunoko. Apparently running out of characters to fight, the company appears primed to turn its wrath on itself with a crossover of its own internal fighters.

The US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) shows a registered trademark (via CVG) for "Fighters of Capcom." It was registered by the company earlier this month. As always, keep in mind that trademarks are no guarantee of upcoming projects, and the end result could turn out not to be a game at all.

Capcom has tried to blend its fighting properties before, most notably in Capcom Fighting Evolution. That 2004 title blended characters from various Street Fighter games, Darkstalkers, and Red Earth.

      Last time they did this was Capcom Fighting Jam, which I never played and hear it sucked. The idea was cool, though. Hopefully they do well this time.
