The company behind games like ‘Grand Theft Auto’ and ‘Bioshock’ believes the Swedish game’s name ‘It Takes Two’ is a trademark infringement.
However, not everyone likes the game, at least not the name.
According to reports, Joseph Fair’s subsidiary Hazelight has had to give up ownership of the game’s name because of this.
In a statement to Eurogamer, a company spokesperson said the studio “cannot comment on ongoing lawsuits” but that they “hope to resolve them”. If that means they can’t sell “It Takes Two” or it’s slowing down a potential sequel, they don’t want to comment either.
This isn’t the first time Take-Two has claimed names that contain links to words like “rockstar,” “social club,” “mafia,” and “civilization.” For example, a company called “Think Like A Rockstar” had to give up its brand after Take-Two heard about it.

“Entrepreneur. Freelance introvert. Creator. Passionate reader. Certified beer ninja. Food nerd.”
