Sega filed a trademark application for “Sonic Frontiers” in Japan on October 22nd, both in English and Japanese.
It was announced in May that an unspecified new Sonic the Hedgehog game was being developed. Therefore, it is likely that the name of the last game will be “Sonic Frontiers”. Sega’s other new trademarks include “Shining Force” and “Hikari to Yami no Eiyuu” (Heroes of Light and Darkness).
Square Enix, meanwhile, filed a trademark application for “The Diofield Chronicle” and “The Beasts of Burden” on October 21. The second game was registered in the United States, Canada, Europe and Australia.
In addition, a trademark application was submitted for “Toraware no Mamono” in Japan. The game was translated as The Captive Beasts. It is not known if this game is related to The Beasts of Burden.
