We wrote that Tencent Games ' subsidiary announced Light of Motiram, which is very similar to Horizon. And some players thought that Sony would be against such a project, but the Japanese giant probably doesn't mind the game at all.

Here's What We Know

Light of Motiram will also be released on iOS, Android, and PlayStation 5, and Tencent plans to cooperate with Sony in the future. Therefore, it is unlikely that Sony will sue (hello, Nintendo) the game authors if Light of Motiram is a PlayStation 5 console exclusive. However, the release date is still unknown.

Also, 16 minutes of gameplay was published on YouTube and if we put aside the moment of survival and creation of your message, the game really, really resembles Horizon. However, it will be ironic if, thanks to Chinese players, it gains more online play or makes more money than Horizon.

In Light of Motiram, human civilisation has disappeared, leaving behind mechanical beasts and primitive cultures in a new primitive world. Survival requires skilful use of resources and endurance in extreme conditions. Players can explore the world, build fortifications, improve combat skills and coordinate with their mechanical beast partners. More than 100 mechanical beasts are ready to be tamed, and the cooperative mode allows up to 10 players to team up for common tasks and challenges.
