According to a trademark filed on October 30th by one Activision Publishing Inc., we may or may not be seeing a new ‘Hero’ game dealing solely with the art of drumming in the near future.

Yep, Activision has filed a trademark for the name ‘Drum Hero,’ which covers all of the necessary bases in order to protect the company’s use of the name in association with products such as:

“Toys, hand-held games with liquid crystal displays, musical toys; action figures and accessories therefor; arcade games; coin-operated video games; electric action toys; handheld unit for playing electronic video games;” as well as “electronic toy drums.”

While ownership of a trademark doesn’t necessarily mean any products will emerge with the brand emblazoned thereupon, it definitely points towards Activision’s future plans for the Guitar Hero and ‘Hero’ franchise.
