Does more volume mean deeper claims for Take-two?

Each dot is one of Take-two’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Take-two’s own 16.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Take-two's grants concentrate

Take-two Interactive Software, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 73.5% of grants classified under A63F (Card, Board, OR Roulette GAMES; Indoor Games Using Small Moving Playing BODIES; Video GAMES; Games NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Take-two sits between Shenzhen NearbyExpress Technology Development Company Limited and Tidi Products, LLC.

Take-two's three-year grant acceleration

Take-two Interactive Software, Inc. shows 9 grants in 2022–2024 against only 11 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
