Killing Day

Killing Day was a cancelled first-person shooter video game that was being developed for the PlayStation 3.[1] The game was first revealed during Sony's E3 press conference in 2005. It was originally due to release on Q4 2006.[2] However, since then the game was subsequently cancelled on early development, although at an undetermined time. It was announced as cancelled by Jan Sanghera of Ubisoft UK, saying '"Killing Day" has been cancelled and is no longer part of the Ubisoft Portfolio.'[3] On January 4, 2013, a new trademark application was filed but there have been no new comments by Ubisoft, but this very same trademark was abandoned on August 29th, 2016.[4] Its trademark history has been active, with two initial filings in April 8th, 2005, with one abandoned in September 22nd, 2007[5] and the other by June 22nd, 2009.[6] Other two were filed in February 23rd, 2007,[7] but abandoned in December 15th, 2008, and the other in February 27th, 2007, and abandoned on December 13th, 2010.[8] In May 20th, 2009, another trademark on Killing Day was filed, sparking rumors that the game is still in development, however, this trademark was abandoned on June 11th, 2012.[9] This, alongside the 2013 filing, were the main two noted trademarks to cause rumors of its development and persistent existence, but developer and publisher Ubisoft hasn't commented on any of the trademark filings or the game itself ever since it was cancelled. As of November 2018, no news of the game's development and/or status has been revealed, and all of the known trademarks have been abandoned, and the latest official statement was the one given about its then status as cancelled.
