‘No Man’s Sky’ settles legal issue with Sky TV over its name

In case you forgot, once upon a time Microsoft OneDrive was called SkyDrive. Why did they change the name? Well, a UK television broadcaster, Sky TV, apparently owns the word “sky” and won a court battle against Microsoft back in 2014. Indie game No Man’s Sky almost had to change its name for the same reason. Its developer Hello Games has been engaged in a three-year legal battle with the TV broadcaster but it seems the issue has finally been settled. Hello Games’s founder Sean Murray shared the news on Twitter without going into detail about the deal. We can’t say either if this is the reason why the game got delayed for another two months and is coming out on August 9th.
