Naming NotesThis phage is named after the unreleased 7th edition of a popular video game franchise. This franchise was a large part of our childhood and we wanted to pay homage to it, as well as display our hope for the 7th edition eventually coming out. Maybe by naming our phage this we can even catch the attention of the game developers and get them to release it sooner.
