Most probably related to Quantum Break (edit from here) although Microsoft owns the Quantum Break trademark.

 

[Rollo Tomasi]

Wouldn't it be BAWE though?

 

[iMax]

Sounds Quantum Breaky.

 

[Pound_lb003]

If it were Quantum Break related, wouldn't MS retain the rights?

Remedy don't own Quantum Break.

 

[Guri]

Alan Wake Expanded.

 

[ChoklitCow]

BAWE(witdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy diggy)

 

[ekim]

Alan Wake Expanded.

Funnily enough, I first just found the "A.W.E" trademark and got excited until I discovered the more verbose one.

 

[statham]

seems more inline with QB then AW.

 

[ekim]

Remedy don't own Quantum Break.

You are right. Hm... maybe some mobile spin-off or really a new game?

 

[OttoSporteman]

Impossible to see something from Remedy with A.W. and not think about Alan Wake.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

Altered World Events - Definitely Quantum Break related. Or at least they're planning ahead for some type of clever spin off.

 

[Guri]

Well, maybe it's just a code name!

 

[Circinus]

Probably a mobile game.

Quantum Break is published by Microsoft Studios, the IP is owned by MS Studios as well. So if it was related to that, it would be registered via Microsoft.

 

[Johndoey]

Fine, Remedy can take me wherever they want to go, I'll follow Sam Lake and his creepy voice to the gates of hell if I have to.

 

[ekim]

Well, maybe it's just a code name!

Why would you register a trademark for a code name though?

 

[Guri]

Why would you register a trademark for a code name though?

I mean, not something like "Project AWE", but a part of whatever they want to develop. Yes, Quantum Break does have something related to altered worlds, but that's a Microsoft IP now and Alan Wake also plays with altered world stuff (American Nightmare being a great example of that).

I want to remain hopeful, haha.

 

[LiK]

Horrible title

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Ah, come on, why not Alan Wake???

 

[CalamityPixel]

Definitely not Quantum Break, MS would own the TM for this if so.

Maybe Alan Wake?

 

[Doffen]

Must be mobile. Also MS owns Quantum Break so this is probably unrelated.

 

[Twin Tails]

Sounds mobile
If it were QB, wouldn't MS trademark it?

 

[salromano]

They also have another trademark they filed in December that no one picked up:

[Circinus]

Yes.

And Remedy has been venturing in mobile games for a while.

 

[Guri]

This one is interesting because it shows the possibility of toys/apparatus and books, not only games.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Wouldn't it be BAWE though?

such is the nature with "backronyms"

 

[Steverulez]

Im going with mobile too.

They have Death Rally and Agents of Storm, wouldn't be a surprise if they expanded their mobile side with more titles.

Or Alan Wake I guess. Definitely not related to Quantum Break i'd say though, given Microsoft own it.

 

[Guri]

Their mobile games aren't really transmedia, are they? I think it's unlikely, considering that.

 

[JaseC]

Frog Factions 2.

 

[RPGamer92]

They also have another trademark they filed in December that no one picked up:

https://oami.europa.eu/eSearch/#details/trademarks/013449137

That one sounds more Alan Wake than AWE.

 

[BluenoseGames]

Quantum Break Standalone DLC.

 

[Steverulez]

They did this in 2012/13 too

 

[Twin Tails]

Northlight is their engine.

 

[Steverulez]

Northlight is their engine.

I probably should have known that, thanks!

 

[TheOneWhoKnockz]

I have a very strong feeling this is Mobile-specific. Microsoft would have trademarked this if it was an expansion for Quantum Break.

On a brighter side, we could speculate they are self-publishing a new title and have formed two teams. But that is highly unlikely and more so a mobile game.

True,but really weird that it does sound really Quantum Break-ey
