Tencent Revamps Light of Motiram's Steam Page Amidst Ongoing Sony Litigation

In response to allegations from Sony that Light of Motiram bears a strong resemblance to the Horizon series, Tencent has made significant alterations to the game's Steam page. The changes, which were made over the course of the last week, include the addition of a Q4 2027 release window, replacement of the game's key art, and substitution of several screenshots with new images. The original description, which highlighted the game's open-world exploration, base-building, and mechanimal training, has been revised to focus on survival mechanics and overcoming challenges, downplaying similarities with the Horizon series. The move comes after Sony filed a copyright lawsuit against Tencent in July, claiming that Light of Motiram is a 'slavish clone' of the Horizon series, which Sony considers to be among its most valuable intellectual properties. The lawsuit sparked a wave of online commentary, with many gamers and journalists noting the striking similarities between the two games.
