It's probably Kamiya's way of giving MS the finger.  Make the game the way he wants, plus use the same name so they know.  And it'll be even more sweet for him if it's a success, as it would prove to that he was right about what the game should have been in the first place.  

Well its kinda funny because if MS let the trademark go than clearly they dont give a flying f@#$.

In saying that, the fallout between MS and Platinum was rumoured to be about Platium failing to exceed deadlines (deadlines dont just mean launch date, but game progession meetings etc) so take it how you will.

I wouldnt be suprised if MS give the assets they own to a more reliable studio, maybe one of there recently owned ones and finish what was started.

For me, i couldnt careless. Scalebound never had me interested.

I might pick it up on the Switch if they change the direction. Ill wait and see.

Or maybe they figured no one would bother picking it up.  And what I have heard is that Platinum failed to deliver because MS put ridiculous demands on them for the game, including changing the original premise and focusing on multiplayer, while not giving them anymore funding to do so.  I also doubt MS will let someone else finish what they have with Scalebound.  If it didn't interest you before, then them continuing to go in the direction MS wanted it to go wouldn't please you.  It also wouldn't be called Scalebound, anymore if Nintendo or Platinum picked up the trademark.
