You remember Deep Down, don't you? A PlayStation 4 exclusive from Capcom, the game was originally announced back in February 2013, but we've heard nothing about it for quite some time. Indeed, it came to light that the Japanese company was having real trouble with its new-gen Panta Rhei engine, which led to many, including ourselves, assuming that the project was all but dead.

However, Capcom has renewed the copyright for the title, which suggests that it's still alive - at least to some extent. Of course, trademarks that aren't actually tied to any tangible product are extended all the time, but this still shows that the publisher hasn't entirely forgotten about Deep Down. Will we see it reborn and running on a different engine at some point in the future? We suppose that anything's possible.
