Square Enix has trademarked the name "EPISODE DUSCAE" in Europe as of July 30th. (Found myself in the European trademark database.)
Did a search for it and found out it was also recently registered in Japan. SE trademarks more stuff in Japan but a lot of it tends to be related to their manga publishing. This was specifically categorized as video games.
One source for Japan (a twitter bot that publishes trademark info) :

Hope this isnt old, searched the forums for "duscae" and found nothing.
In other recent news, Square trademarked "Life is Strange" last month. It got reported on Gaf here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=847970
Update:
Episode Duscae was also registered in the United States as of July 29
