Rick and Morty has become one of the biggest multimedia franchises in the industry since its premiere on Adult Swim in 2013. The mega-popular cartoon has spawned comic books, an upcoming spin-off, and Rick and Morty have even appeared as cameos in video games, with a Rick Sanchez Fortnite skin being added for the game's seventh season. The iconic Sanchez family has often appeared in minor roles in other games and occasionally their own lower-profile games, but recent trademarks may suggest an upcoming title isn't far off.

With the massive popularity of Rick and Morty over the past several years, the popular cartoon and video games have gone hand-in-hand. 2016's mobile-exclusive Pocket Mortys brought the multiverse of Mortys into a Pokemon-inspired monster-catching romp and Rick and Morty: Virtual Rick-ality brought players right into the world of Rick and Morty. Though they have seen several appearances in video games, Rick, Morty, and the rest of the family have yet to see their own high-profile game title, but Warner Bros. may be looking to expand the iconic characters' video game presence.

Recent trademarks suggest that Warner Bros. may have plans for Rick and Morty in the world of gaming. The company recently filed trademarks for Rick, Morty, Pickle Rick, and Mr. Meeseeks for use under a variety of different purposes. Specifically mentioned under the uses for the trademarks are "computer software" and "video game software" among other uses that could be related to a Rick and Morty video game. It should be noted that there has been no official announcement as of yet to an upcoming Rick and Morty video game.

Rick and Morty recently concluded its fifth season on television with more seasons already being planned for the future. Writer Alex Rubens confirmed earlier this year that the writing staff was working on Season 7 of Rick and Morty before Season 5 had even begun to air. The presence of the eccentric mad scientist and his grandson has been massive across the entertainment industry in recent years, being featured in massive franchises like Fortnite, Dota 2, and even the Simpsons.

A potential Rick and Morty game is something fans have been interested in for a long time. The universe-bending adventures and frequent action scenes within the show lend themselves to a massive action-adventure game. While no studio has come forward to take the Sanchez family's adventures to a video game format, fans often speculate some of the best studios for a Rick and Morty game with names like Insomniac and Capcom coming up. Rick and Morty's overwhelming popularity should ensure that someday players will be able to experience Rick and Morty's signature chaotic action through their own eyes.
