If I'm reading this right, the parties were assigned to a court-directed mediation programme which seems to be a standard step for IP cases in this district, but there have been no further filings.
Which I think tells us exactly zero. Anything could still happen.

PS I have a marketing class report due tomorrow which I haven't started yet, partly due to playing Ion Fury, so I'm thinking I might write it on Ion/Iron Maiden, derp.
So if anyone has any insight or good articles (especially on the branding side of this) plz post.

It's kinda interesting how the Iron Maiden reference (which was a much better title for multiple obvious reasons) worked to drive downloads of the demo, and it doesn't matter that much that the name changed after that. Even if they never thought they could keep the title it would still have been a great strategy.
And if you guys like conspiracy theories... I just learned that Iron Maiden only applied for their videogames trademark a couple months before Ion Maiden was revealed... which was THREE YEARS after the mobile game it applies to was actually released.
