<p><em><span style="font-weight: 400">DieselStormers</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400">, the platform shooter from German indie studio Black Forest Games, has been given a new name, the developer announced today.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">The name change comes after a trademark registration dispute over the name </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400">DieselStormers</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400">, as fashion brand Diesel opposed the trademark attempt for obvious reasons.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">The PC exclusive now goes by the name </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400">Rogue Stormers</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400">, with the developer citing the decision for the new name as the best way to highlight the game’s main gameplay mechanic and stay as true to the old name as possible, maintaining its brand recognition as best they can.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Along with the name change, Black Forest Games have added a bunch of new stuff in the game’s most recent content update, which includes shops, chests, doors, new secondary weapons and more.
